here's a picture of what I've got, turbo I at shop obviously but there is a good shot of intercooler <img>http://i.imgur.com/26pqggo.jpg</img> bah you guys can click it

Gabe or anybody for that matter, if you could supply me with a photo of what the intercooler is connected to? Water wise. I'll post a picture of what ive got tomorrow

Yea brooksie I think that was going to be the plan. Hopefully what I have is still good

Reason why i asked on here is because i feel like ive seen it before on here but maybe not

I have put around 400-500 hrs on the boat since owning the boat. So i hope i have not damaged pistons or valves because ive just put $4k into engine and id hate for there to be mmore serious issues

David, the intercooler not being hooked up is been the way its been since I bought the boat in 2011. It wasn't till later that i realized water should be hooked up. I just guessed that it was raw water because the fresh water system doesn't seem like it would connect.

Gabe I appreciate the help. That picture doesn't help too much but the fact that you are connected does.....

I've got a early 60s Perkins T6.354m. Having turbo rebuilt currently and shop said I was overheating my turbo on the discharge side. I explained that there is an intercooler with a way to hook up raw water but it hasn't been connected and the reason why I never tried it is in fear of a water...

oh wow, i didnt know there was a rustoleum marine paint. intesteresting. I went to get some primer from seattle marine and it wasnt as expensive as west marine but i mean i dont know if im going to be able to do anything for a couple weeks, haul out is coming and owner work is not permitted. it...

will do!

as you can see ive got a lot of work to do. The next 2-3 weeks ill be working on my boat probably 8 - 10 hours a day to improve it and honestly im siked about it.

heres some pictures of what im working with.

okay, after further investigation i decided that this was more of a pain in the rear then originally thought. There are no end connectors to any of the wires. The unit is also a cheaper brand and it looks like its atleast 15 or 20 years old so finding the right parts probably wont be that easy...

Very good advice.. The deck has paint but its been coming off. ive had this boat a few years and i havent been able to paint until now. Ill take some pictures today and post them up. the paint thats currently on the exterior is probably marine paint it looks pretty heavy duty and im convinced...

I dont know the model, im going to try and hit there today if not tomorrow for sure to take pictures with my cell phone and really look it over. I'll get back with updates. I just had a new idea to get the model number and call the company whomever it is to see if they will tell me if it will...

I can try this and have thought about. i think the price will go up proven it works.

yeah ive heard this and the very little painting i have done i have experienced that all the work is in the prep. so i plan on doing a good job on the prep although it doesnt need to look pretty im mostly looking for something non skid esp on the deck because the vessel does like to roll a tad

Thank you for the advice from everyone, i welcome more to chime in. im open to all opinions.

ok this is for a commercial dungeness crab boat so the deck will see a lot of weather along with sea water. I think im going to get a good marine paint & primer for the deck however, if i can do some of the topside trim with an oil based paint then im going to try it and see how it goes. Im not...

ok i understand i should walk away but its quite the bargain and almost worth the gamble. the screen is fairly new looking however it does make me wonder why it was cut and now sits at the marine exchange.

I didnt catch much about it, i had my 3 yo in my arms. Im going again Tuesday to check it out further and possibly buy. it was lowrance though if i remember right. Smaller radar dome and looked like 5in screen.

thanks ron, i understand what your saying

Anyone ever experience difficulty with getting a radar to work after the power wire was cut with dikes? Sorry did this kind of fast and the subject doesnt explain much.

Looking to Paint my cabin, Aft Deck, and possibly everywhere else topside. Bottom paint coming very soon, due to weather. So im cheap but i just want to get the job done also. I was looking at primers at Lowes for Cabin, there is 123 water based primer that resists mold and mildew. It looked...

It's a Royal Craft and I've heard people say it reminds them of a Roberts and I have seen some Roberts boats that I could relate it to. I'm 26 years old now, Used to be a commercial fisherman in Alaska and then bought this crabbing vessel for the Puget Sound in the summer of 2011. Took it out in...
