    Carl, Very sorry to hear about your state of health. I don't come in here as often as I used to as it's become kind of an inactive site. You are certainly one of the guys that we could rely upon...

    Hi Sam, Yes. It only leaks slightly when not running. Last summer I had put it in the water for about 1 hour while we changed a cable on the boat lift. Some water got in the bilge during that 1...

    I guess I'm not the only one. Misery loves company! Hoping I can locate it once it's in the water. I'll update after I get it in on April 30th. Putting the new bilge pump in Saturday. With the...

    Very true Greg. Once I get it in the water, under pressure I can eyeball it. At least I will have a working bilge by then.

    Thanks smokediver. Got into this yesterday. Shift cable boot looks OK. Actually pulled the bilge pump. Wiring was OK. Tested the pump. It was dead. The fuses are OK and no corrosion in the fuse...
  7. Slow leak from rear of 2000 18 Classic.

    Preparing the boat for April 30th. Need to repair a slow leak from the rear. My plan is to run a hose and get some water in the bilge (below the motor) and try to find the leak. Plenty of guys...

    I run the factory AC MR43LTS gapped at .045 in my 2000 18 Classic with the original 350 Mag MPI. It runs great. I believe 2000 was the first year for FI but you should run fine on these.

    Congrats on the new Donzi. Looks great. Can't beat the price. Before you throw the baby out with the bath water, I would check the float bowl levels of the carb or maybe check for a stuck float in...

    My 2000 18 Classic does it a little bit. Just the nature of the beast with the pipes exiting back there. I just take some Bleche White on a microfiber and it wipes right off.

    I hit it again last week with another coating of 303. Rained heavily last night. Boy did it bead up and repel water. Second coating was the charm.

    Thanks for the good advice!

    The top did shrink just a bit. Takes a little more effort to snap it down. Got 1/2 inch of rain last night. Seems to be working. I got it a bit cheaper on Amazon Prime. I may hit it again later...

    Well, I did the top three days ago. I actually used the 303 cleaner recommended for Sunbrella. I let it dry completely. Looked very nice. I then sprayed it as directed by Morgan's Cloud. I let...

    Thanks very much for the advice. I will go with it.
  16. Waterpproofing my Sunbrella cockpit cover.

    My Sunbrella Tonneau/cockpit cover for my 18 Classic does not repel water any more. When it rains hard, the interior gets wet. I had this one made to replace the original 8 years ago. After...

    Everything went well this morning. Took my sunrise cruise around the lake with a big cup of Joe going and a beautiful sunrise. I know what they are all saying: "HE'S BACK"!!!

    I've been running 87 Octane, 10% ethanol, in my 2000 350 Mag MPI for many years with zero issues. No pinging and no problems. The original operator's manual calls for 87 octane. The ethanol hasn't...
