Hello all, Just looked at 2 48’s with the fuel selectors moved.

Thank you for this.

Hello all I’m working on my 48 and decided to add the P-Ponk kit. When I started I found my outboard gear mounts were laminated. Does anyone have a good process for changing these?

I have to admit everything I have moved has brought on a challenge and there were moments I really felt like I had bought some really big yard art. However it seems I am moving forward at a good pace ...

Thank you everyone for the replies. It has been very helpful.

Thank you for all the help, seems no matter what I ask you are always on...

Hello again, I am progressing well through my 48' that sat out for 25 years and am at a point I need some advice. I have the tail cone off the clean corrosion and to replace the stiffeners in the rear. As I am ready to reassemble the tail end I realize I need an access point in the area or I am goin...
