    Ranking these boats

    Replacing rusted out fuel tanks

    Fuel Tank Replacement Sounds like you're only replacing the one tank, I assume you have another tank from the same era. I had to have both done, scaled back the size some which created the need for a platform on both. Had my engine placed up in the salon, supports under for the weight. I have 3...

    Replacing rusted out fuel tanks

    I didn't do anything to get my insurance company (Boat US) to pay, it just happened.

The origional quote was $24K...

    Engine Anodes Perkins ST6.3544M

    Perkins engine zincs I have a 1984 PT 35 Sundeck with a single 6.354 Turbo and have never found zincs. Had a guy look and he found nothing. Can zincs be added? My thought is after all this time if it's had no zincs why bother. I do have 2 on the shaft, one on the rudder, one each on the trims...
