We have decided to sell our 45c and will be listing her locally in the next week or two. She is in fair condition cosmetically on the outside above the water line. Below the waterline she is excellent the hull was soda blasted and all blisters were repaired and then painted. Inside is very much...

The intake ball valves for the raw water side of the cooling system on my 1969 45 sportfish are frozen open. I would like to know what the best way to address this is. Are they able to be rebuilt, can they be unfrozen, or is it time to replace them. I sprayed everything with penetrating oil...

Title says it all.

Our 1969 has a fairly small holding tank, can I reduce the flow to the head or will this create problems for me.
