Im thinking of selling the rear bench and the back to back I have. I'm considering a pontoon sectional looking thing. It will go across the back and up the left side to about the end of the windshield. Its my party boat anyway... We've never fished from it. Anyone ever seen that furniture in...

I have an 85 Merc BlackMax 150. It idles perfect on the trailer all dayat about 1100rpm. As soon as I put her in the water, the idle drops to 400-500, starts to lobe and stalls. Also, when I'm cruising out of the no wake zone, (about 10mins) it seems to load up and bog, but as soon as I tilt the...

Hey guys, I was out doing a de-carb on my motor yesterday and noticed something strange. I was idling at 750, when I opened the clamshell covers on my 86 blackmax 150, the idle slowly crepped up to about 1100. What the hell is that about? I closed it up and back to 750 it went. I checked for...

I have rot where the piece of threaded steel comes up and attaches the bow cleat. Its about 9" around. I dont know what its called, its the celing of the cuddy. The white liner on top of the inside is molding too. How can I repair this stuff without pulling the whole cap?

I want to set my bow rail lower than it is now on my steplift. Would this be a matter of just trimming down the vertical pieces and reassembling? Anyone tried this?

My search has come up empty trying to locate one of these... If anyone can take a pic of theirs for me, I'm going to try to build one similar to oem...Thanks

I've given up trying to locate a bench seat for my 85 steplift. I've moved on to building one. I was searching and was wondering if anyone here has done this. I'm looking for some inspirational pics. Whats the width in there? I dont much feel like driving out to measure it. Also, does anyone...

I have an 86 Mercury BlackMax 150 O/B... I'm wondering if it has some sort of generator or alternator on it for battery recharging? I want to run dual batteries for an audio/video system, but unsure if I should if it doesnt have any sort of recharging capability.

Whats the easiest and fastest way to get this stripe off that wraps around the hull. Its peeled and cracked, I'd like to replace it.

Hey guys, I've been tossing an idea around of building a full swim platform for my boat... But I have an outboard. I wanted to cut around it and have the center hinged so I may flip it up to tilt the motor up for transport or service... any ideas, or thoughts on this?

Has anyone done this? I opened my fuel hatch and found the 1.5" filler neck line has what looks to be surface dryrot. Would that warrant a replacement or is this normal? I have the in floor tank on a 85 steplift.

I have an 85 Steplift and as most are, my floor is a peach color. I'm redoing the seats, gauges, lighting and inside the cuddy... It would just be perfect if I could change the floor color. Is this paintable or not? If so, what can I paint it with that will stick and not lift and flake away.

Hey guys, I need new cushions for my helm seat. Does anyone know what brand seat it came with? Its a 1985 v-20 steplift.

My boat gauges ar all pretty much shot. The tach is the only gauge that works, and that leanse is fogged and uv damaged. I'm looking to buy a set, a matching set. Is there a site to build you own set? I dont need some of the gauges that com with most sets. All I'll need is, Tach Trim Fuel Hour...

Hi everyone, I just picked up my new (to me) '86 v-20 steplift. She needs a little TLC but I think I can handle it. This forum is very informative, I cant wait to get into this thing. I come from the custom car scene so fiberglass and cleaning is no stranger. I just finished fully rehabbing a...
