Just broke the dip stick on a Continental 0470. Luckily I have already bought a aluminum oil pan with a sight tube set up and now get to install. I briefly looked through a pdf(digital file) file someone has posted on here with a break down of the 0470 motor parts, but could not find a detail...

This photo was taken the same weekend as the other photo's with the stringers of fish. They caught better than a thousand pan fish that weekend and ate fish for weeks. 1960's

This is a 1975 photo of a day of rattle trapping on Kissimee. Lost 2 big ones at the boat...may have been the record weight for fish limit had we put 'em in.

Just getting ready to put some polymer on a glass hull and can't decide which color poly to use. In the last thread I placed on SA some suggested the blue because it is slick and tough. I was told the dark grey is harder than the black. Black seems to be most prevelent, so it must be good. We're...

Looking for the best polymer installer in the North Brevard/Volusia County area to attach polymer on a 14' Freedom Craft fiberglass hull. Any suggestions on the thickness would be helpful, too. We'll be running in marine areas with some oysters and shell bottom. I'm leaning toward 5/16" or 3/8"...
