Re: how to test for Electrolysis with multimeter

Silly question, but if it is an outboard, isnt the motor grounded to the hull just by being bolted to it and wouldnt you read 12 volts to the hull from positive post to hull anyhow? or is the motor ground isolated from hull somehow?

Re: New to alloy site

Had to let mine sit for awhile, I had to fix my friends flat bottom which required a new bottom. Hopefully back to work on mine soon.

Re: wanna start a boat building company?

Chris I'll be taking a look at the router table, but I think a few others may also. Wow that's a lot of welders but I've got brand new ones. I'd also like to maybe pick up the Hydraulic pipe/tubing bender and a 12' press brake, We'll just have to see what happens

Boat Plans

Looking for a boat plan for my brother, He wants me to build him a 24' pilot house boat, but hasn't found the right plan yet. Are there any other sites out there? I've seen Bruce Pollards and like several, just not quite right for bro. Any help appreciated.
