Boats & Boating

Its an old model. The block is by GM. 4 cylinders. Mercruiser does not support this model anymore.
What GM car parts can I use as replacement and what complete car / boat engine can I fit to the existing sterndrive?
Anyone out there faced with this same problem?

back to the bilge pump, when i replace it i'm thinking about upgrading from 500 gph (draws 1.5 amps) to 750 gph (draws 2.8 amps). i don't want to overload my system. how do i know if this will not draw too much electricity? i have a 17' bayliner capri, with a 12 v battery in the aft area. thanks

In about 4 months, I am taking a trip where i'll need to be on a fairly large boat in the Pacific for an hour and a half. A friend told me (he's been on that boat and to the same destination) it is ROUGH. I get violently sick on boats and am VERRRY scared. I can't WAIT for the trip but the boat ride alone almost turned me away from going. I'm going to take Bonine, but I don't fully trust it. Does anyone have any experience with it? Does it actually work? If I take it, do you think i'll get sick?? All your help counts and I really appreciate it. Thanks a ton!!

I want to build a 4.8 metre bay fishing boat. I have quotes for an alloy kit but this requires specialist skill in welding. I am also looking at a timber boat with epoxy or bote cote exterior. Which do you think is better? The waters in Port Phillip Bay are treacherous so the craft in question needs to be able to high tail it when necessary.

Obviously, no gun or anything like that. But is there anything else that isn't allowed?

I am going to build a 3.8m dingy sail boat. It will be of plywood construction. the only dilemma i have is how i am going to transport it to the sea... I have a VW Polo and was wondering if a roof rack would do the job or if the boat would simply be too long? are there any laws restricting length of carried objects, etc. I dont have a trailer licence so would rather not get one of these as it maybe an expensive option! Any ideas or suggestions welcome. Cheers

on a large cruise ship there are some radar screens passengers can look at and see islands / progress that the ship is sailing .

why technology is used to avoid collision with other boats in sea ? and to avoid hitting subs. the airtraffic controllers watch over the height planes fly .. but who regulates the ocean ? navigates the paths the ships sail ?
