Re: New Owner
My 23' I/B used to take on a bit of water when two or three of us would stand aft, so I installed two of the ping pong ball scupper valves and no more water.

23' inboard
I sold my 23' inboard (White Hawk) to a GMC dealer in N.J. and was wondering how it's doing in that cold weather. If you're lurking, give us a shout.

I normally cruise at 2500 to 2800 RPM's which gets me 28 to 30 MPH. Top end is around 34 MPH. Not a real speedster, but I fish (troll) all day on $ 12.00 of gas. You trade blistering speed for...

Re: Checking for Moisture
I like the moisture meter idea, sounds very accurate. My low tech approach was to drill a 1/4" hole near bottom of transom, insert a short length of wire and collect the water that weeped out. If you...

Re: Thru-hulls
Actually, besides the big four there was also: Gale, Bucaneer, Wizard, Bundy, Seagull, Attwater and a few more whose names escape me at the moment. A lot of experimentation going on at the time.

Re: spray rails for a 23
Most of the applied spray rails I have seen were custom "one off" installations, and even these were primarily done to older hulls..(Seacraft, Cuda Craft) Personaly I don't believe the 23 needs them....

Rich, I'm sorry to have to disagree with your N.J. advisor but I think he's wrong on two points. I believe the transom rebuild is better approached from the inside. It is a little harder to access...
