Just drive within your capability's, and over time your ability will get better and better, it just takes practice, as others have said, "It takes seat time".
Bunks support the boat better if fitted correctly,
For reference Pat, the full hydraulic 10.5" single ram Imco set up is just under 2 3/4 turns lock to lock, helps when docking. Sorry, I just edited this post, should read 2 1/2 turns with engine...
That's the kit I bought, and I also got it from CP Performance, however, I'm in the U.K. and by the time I got it over here and paid the shipping and tax on it, it was another $900..!!! :frown:
As I said before, its not for me to say what anyone should do, but I can not see any great advantage using an "Add on" kit using the teleflex with an external ram, you would still have the backlash...
Hi, Its not for me to say what someone should do, but for me, after trying other systems, I would now only go with, full hydraulic with power assist and external ram especially if your running north...
The Imco steering is a complete hydraulic system ( Hydraulic helm), we have a 16 classic, I found that the standard Mercruiser power assist system had "Slop" in it due to the float in the mechanical...
We have fitted one to our boat, Alpha 1 gen 2, to be honest, I'm not sure it improved anything, my Son bought it for me 4 or 5 years ago for a Christmas present so I had to fit it, our boat is only...
87942This what I found when I cleaned the mastic /sealant off. I haven't ground any thing away, the glass was missing,

I am fitting a new 5.7 crate motor into my classic 16, it originally had a 4.3 V6, yesterday I removed the bolted in engine beds, to move them forward , only to find it had been drilled for V8 engine...
I have a 1999 Classic 16 which came from the factory with a Mercruiser V6, I am fitting a new crate engine 5.7 V8, I can see there may be a problem when the engine is in the boat timing it up, the...
I would think that a 16' with that sort of power would be...........shall we say.....interesting !!! My 16' does some funny things from time to time to try to catch me out, and that is very much at...
Very nice.
Thanks for the offer,but I'll find out what, if any, the problems may be sending gel coat overseas first,
Yes, a friend has the single paddle version controlling his power trim, the problem with using these in my situation is that with the twin paddle set I would still have to take my hand off the...
Yes, I'll have to, trouble is , over here in the U.K. we don't have the same sort of specialist glass shops as you seem to have in the U.S. I've worked in the Marine industry for over 50yrs and not...
Have contacted Minicraft and another company, Spectrum, re gelcoat, both very helpful, can supply the correct color, however, they don't ship to the U.K....... back to square one...
Thanks, will contact them and see if they will ship to the U.K.
Hi, I have a 1999 16 classic, red hull white deck, can anybody tell me what RAL numbers these colors may be please? I have some damage marks to the white gel on the deck, I'm in the U.K. so getting...
Thanks for the comments, its nice to know that I'm not the only person that finds the original rocker switch awkward, I have not tried these in the water yet, I only fitted it yesterday, but I will...
