Nuff said!

That is a hell of a good deal for that boat. I have been in her many times and it is one sweet riding boat. Loaded with 5 adults, we were crusing down the Trent River one day at at 62mph. Nice ride,...

Very interesting. I have been RC model building, mostly airplanes, for 50 years. Can't wait to see more of this beauty. Tom

That sure is good news. Prayers will continue though. Tom

Our prayers and best wishes go out to you & Barb. Tom & Elaine

My boat is a 1967 and it was easy enough to just remove the old cables, measure them, and fish the new ones in there. From the front of the motor compartment to where the hole in tub is for the...

Kirby, I just measured the ones I removed. Yours may be different, but mine were 10' and 12'. I found no need for the super flexable ones. The bends that mine make don't hinder movement any that I...

My neutral pull out button is also mounted to the rear on my left hand drive setup. After replacing just the old shifter with the Morse MV 2 one we tried it and it still gave me fits trying to find...

I must have missed that incompatible part in my excitement. Mine is a 1967 18' with a 25 gallon tank. Bummer.

Has anyone with the older boats used one of your sending units succesfully. My sight gauge throught the floor is always suspect to me. Would love to have a gauge on the dash that "really" works. Tom

Forrest, has this boat been sold? If not, where are you located? I'm on the Neuse River in New Bern NC. Tom

Just put new Teleflex red cables in my HM 298, 1967 2+3 . Used a 10 footer for the throttle and a 12 footer for the shifter. Works great now with my new Morse MV2 shifter. Tom

The Neuse River here in New Bern NC is shallow to start with. I am fearful of hitting a submerged object and tearing the transome out of the boat. That lock mechanism is complicated, to say the...

Howard and I launched Bluebird last week and were 99.999% sure we had foreward and reverse correct with the new Morse MVI shifter and red jacket Teleflex cables.. NOT. Darn, and we had it shifting...

My 1967 is # 18-197 and is a barrelback. This one could be one of the first of the newer series. Here is a shot of my #1 mechanic, Howard O, fixing something for me. We just got her back in the water...

On my 18' 2+3 we lifted the boat off the trailer by the ring on the stern and the one in the middle of the foredeck and it worked fine, but the one on the bow is not made for that, not on mine...

Yup, that's my boat in the hands of Donzi Vol during it's shake down cruise, that lasted several months I might add. She looks pretty good in those pictures but has since gotten all new upholstery...

I was a member of the Ace MC Club in Walden NY and that is where our TT Scrambles track was. Plus I rode at Andres Farm in Fishkill and Pop's Cycle Shop track in Walkill. I think that club was called...

I'm famous, sorta! As for Howard, he can't get enough of me and my boat, or is it my boat then me, and I couldn't do it without him. What a great new friend I have made. The Donzi Family reminds me...

Hi David. All that fussin with the gel coat in Florida and it was still so porous I ended up having the deck and cockpit painted anyway. It looks super now and wipes clean with a damp paper towell,...

I just came upon this thread and wanted to say I bought my boat, a 1967 18' 2+3 we named Bluebird, from Tom and it was everything he said it was in his ad. Only problem we had when picking it up was...

I found what I needed and Howard O and I just finished through bolting them to the deck. Thanks to all for the suggestions. Tom

Last time out with my 18' I shut it down to talk to a guy in another boat and when I tried to start it it was stone dead. Nothing, Nada. I was in the middle of the river and thought I would have to...

If it weren't for you I would never get this boat fixed. I surely appreciate all your help. See ya in a few days and we'll wrap her up. Tom

Thanks David. We'll find that stinking leak. I had one on my hot rod last year and it smelled up my entire garage. Found it to be a loose clamp on the incoming fuel line. Only a drop every now and...
