Battery switch ticking
Another mystery to solve. Everytime I turn on the cockpit depth sounder my battery switch starts ticking. I have to turn off the engines and turn off the batteries and turn on the batteries again to make the ticking stop. Any one know what might be causing this?

Edwing for sale in Alaska
I came across this larger Edwing for sale in Alaska. Nice looking boat. A lot bigger than my 23. Beamy.

Re: Update?
I second that. You picked a great builder. That is one nice boat. We would love to see more pic'sjrogers wrote:Sharkbait,
Do you have an update for us on your boat? Did you get it up to AK yet, and what do you think about it now that you (presumably) have some hours on it?

Steven Pollards books are great. Lot's of good information from a guy who has many years of experience. I have his first book and haven't bought the second one yet. Alot of his design's are not super deep V I noticed and I like that for fuel economy etc. and alot of them are very rugged work boat de...

Thanks for that great article SL Dave. I can't wait for Yammy or Honda to come out with some killer electric hybrid outboards (just think of the torque). I would rather pay the money for new batteries than have to sail to the fish. If things get real bad we may have to be sailing to the fish (if the...

That is a great looking boat Marty. I remember seeing that photo a few years back and thought the same thing. An Ironwood is just not in my budget (yet). Baby steps. Just look at the entry and the sheer lines. That baby would rock with a triple set up. I have yet to make it over to the mainleand and...

I've got the problem fixed now. I must have been some blockage somewhere. Took the lower unit off and blew compressed air up the pipe and she came screaming out the indicator. I took it to a Honda dealer North of me and he put it in his tank ran her for 25 minutes while monitoring the temp and no pr...

Welcome byodsl. I am not familiar with the Thomas make either. Looks a little like a Winninghoff. What's the beam and deadrise of her? The price seems reasonable if the power is o.k. and working. If she sunk you probably have to look into rewiring her. Nice photos. Good luck in your search for an AAB.

Well with a week or so of wax on wax off here we go again. I'm to the point of good enough for now on the under the floor board thing. I took some pics of the neoprene gasket material and new floor boards going in. http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii297/Coal_miner/Sculpin%20Projects/floorboards001...

I would flush it out often for sure. Look at my photos in the Sculpin Project No. 1 in the Shop Talk area. Most of the stuff under the floor boards was from salt water getting into the cabin (mostly from the leaky windows) and never being cleaned etc. There was heavy salt deposits under there from a...

Thanks guys! I have some before pictures I will post, then some after we get it dialed. The hull is a 97' flat bottom I believe. We were thinking of putting a 60HP Yamaha four stroke on it. Whatta ya think? Matt Post the before and after pics please. I love project pics. IMO a 90 might be more suit...
