    1987 Chaparral 198C Owner - Difficulty of Aluminum Fuel Tank Swap?

    Yes, it would. Pricy yes, but whats the cost of a new tank and the all the glass work. Generally speaking, you cut a hole in the top of the tank and insert the bladder. I would call them and get more info. Oh, and you need to dispose of the old tank.

    A few links. They are pricey, but whats the cost of cutting into your boat and the new tank? https://atlinc.com/custom-fuelocker-marine-fuel-bladders.html https://readycontainment.com/product-category/marine-fuel-bladders/?srsltid=AfmBOoomPqEKXMsoWtF5kHEN66cDMr4S3Dwpt5yKOE5B598CeOIqoeCB...

    Bathing and for the head. No drinking that water. Its all on how you use your boat.

    1987 Chaparral 198C Owner - Difficulty of Aluminum Fuel Tank Swap?

    Now Denny knows a lot more than me on replacing the tank. After all, he's done it. Plus, if there is any wood that needs to be replaced. But I have heard of, cutting a hole in the tank and putting in a rubber bladder. On bigger boats this is not an uncommon thing to do

    Ski/Tow Bar

    I don't know your boat. But you would be sharing the load between the two cleats or hold downs. Every cleat should have a good backing plate. You could install a bigger plate for the cleats or the tie downs. Its not a hard thing to do. The hard part is getting at it. In the Pic, it looks like...

    Why not make up a bridle between your two stern cleats?

    I had a Sig 290 with 25 or 30 gal tank. And I thought that was way too small.

    Wobbly Prop

    Oh, you mentioned "it’s been like this since I bought it mid last year."

    Wobbly Prop

    I would take it back to the dealer. Since your still under warranty. Nothing has hit the drive or prop than there should be no marks.

    Installing Simrad NSX/SmartCraft and transducer; 2004 Sunesta 252

    It must be blocked on your end. As to the color code, just google marine wiring color code. Personally I would just hard wire your GPS and VHF. Using your Neg and Pos buss bar under the helm. Of course, use fuses!

    Installing Simrad NSX/SmartCraft and transducer; 2004 Sunesta 252

    What exactly are you trying to do? Does this go back to the NEMA2k network? If I was looking for an open switch, I would pull the panel and look. If needed, I would install a new switch. Many option/choices on installing new. Here are some examples, but there are large switch panels mixed...

    Also check the voltage at the coil. Check your neutral switch at the throttle. I can't remember if that switch stops the engine from turning over or just kills the power to the coil.

    Injectors not spraying fuel

    You have not mentioned fuel filters. I don't know if you have primary and secondary filters. But that would be the first place I would look at. Than take off the fuel supply hose of both engines, just to see if fuel is flowing. I would use the starboard fuel line, a base line. In other words, if...

    Aftermarket parts

    Be very carful what you buy on Amazon for your boat. Some of it is from China and its junk.

    Boating License

    Not to debate the point. I have gone on on beautiful days and I never forget one 4th of July night. On the return trips, we hit fog. On the first time, my wife said "I am buying the boat radar" and she did. In the fog I had follow my GPS trail back doing 6 to 7 knots to avoid lobster traps...
