    Thanks

    Thank you for keeping us in the loop. We are on a similar path. Although our 18 is not together yet we are making good progress. I just ordered a Titan (21"LH) as I need the prop to figure out how...

    Comparison Info

    I have the same engine in a 1997 22 (7.4 liter, carb, 300hp, Bravo One) and I get about 63 gps with a Turbo prop. I got a little more top end with the Bravo prop but I liked the overall handling...

    If I remember correctly (it was 45+ years ago) my barrel back 1967 18 had only a ny-lock nut holding the props on. The boat was raced prior to me getting it and they had an assortment of props...

    Thank you for the info and time Matty. If the 250 shaft is shorter it looks like a problem but I guess others have made it work. I assume you made the custom washer -- as opposed to it being a part...

    Thank You, good info. I guess the first step is to buy a Solas Titan. Was that prop influenced by the work the Griz did? I think I understand what you said about properly positioning the prop...

    I like the way you think f_in, drilling and tapping the shaft is somewhat scary. We would also use a LH prop. However it seems to me a RH prop would also be pushing it on --- unless you were in...

    Solas Titan on a 250

    I have gone over several threads and reviewed a lot of excellent information on props for a Volvo drive. Our 18 has the 302 H&M pkg with a Volvo 250 -- supposedly it had 235 hp (not sure how accurate...

    That is a bend Scott. I cannot see a waterline on the tank or any signs in the foam of it being saturated. I think the drain tube along the bottom vee in this boat was installed and sealed better...

    Tank is Out

    A while back I posted a thread about how we left gas in the tank of our 18 for close to 10 years of non-use, the result was a thick layer of a pitch like substance on the bottom of the tank which...

    A couple of in-the-water pics

    In case any of you don't know how beautiful a 22 is in the water :), I think it is a length to beam ratio thing. I just listed the boat on Craigslist locally.8244482445

    Insurance

    Definitely a product you want to shop around for. As an example, I get most of my boat insurance from a broker I have used for 30+ years. Currently I have two boats with them. A 22' Boston Whaler...

    In the early 70's I rode in an 18 at the Donzi factory and it had a sbc and a Volvo speedmaster lower unit. I guess this was just prior to the TRS drive taking Volvo out of the equation for...

    Well I certainly understand your position Matty. It might be less costly if all time is accounted for to just put a mercruiser pkg in our '69 and move on. However our engine, drive, water pump,...

    Not sure how we moved from manifolds to water pumps but I think Depco Pump can provide some parts for these pumps. Go to their site and search on the Jabsco model that H&M used 11850-80 I think. ...
