Perhaps a description would be a good thing for us less educated in CC parts.
Is that a CC Frisbee?

This is a new Acme 480. This prop is an Acme 208 with slightly more cup. It would make a great spare prop or a budget prop.

Just for reference: 208 performance numbers on my 1986 2001 Stock 240 horse Ford.

-Nice hole shot but not brutal like a 540.
-Normal midrange punch. Easy to maintain speed with skier.
-Top speed: 43.2 at roughly 4450 rpm.

Price for 480: $190.00. One used 208 available: $230.00 New 208s: $260.00

Obo on these pieces pending supply and demand haha.

Two more for ya.

87-89(90 BFN) rear buddy seat speaker grills. NOS but I don't know exactly what the originals looked like.

Big T helm base. Looks good most of the scuffing rubs off and the scratches on the face will be covered by your steering wheel. Slight wrinkle black finish.


Can't post pictures right now but I can email them if need be. Site is still acting kind of funny.

Ok so we're technically closed most of this week and completely closed next week for the holidays.

Reason for this week is a building wide inventory of current parts. This is a major undertaking so I wont be around much this week.

Plus side is I have already found some pretty neat stuff and the week after Christmas break will be full throttle old parts so stay tuned.

Ok not NOS parts but I did a set of these for a few 85-87 boats. They can be domed decals or flat decals. They are Nautique font and shadows for those year boats available in whatever colors your boat desires. Mine should be sporting a set come spring.



EDIT: still can't upload photos but you get the picture. Can email for any interested parties.

Who was the original manufacturer of the rub rail? I am guessing the insert is 1/2" diameter.


Posted By: Air206
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 2:51pm
I have seen some folks use lengths of industrial silicone tubing which comes in various diameters, colors and thicknesses.... Seems as though the softer silicone would be an easier replacement material. Don't know how it holds up.

Taco marine makes the inserts I have found out. They make black- white, and grey. Wonder if they would make the other colors ?


Posted By: phatsat67
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 3:05pm
There has to be something out there that would work. I would like to do some research. I hate seeing boats that once had color have none after the rubrail is replaced.

I could arrange this, work for a coatings manufacturer and am technical lead for automotive division which primarily develops coatings for rubber extrusion.
Colour matching would be no issue, but it probably wouldn't be cost affective unless you live in Europe!

Need to know if the insert is 3/8" or 1/2". Taco marine sells black 50' role for $39 I found. 1/2" is $90. Need to know diameter to find out some options for people. I did find the best way to clean one is with a mr clean magic eraser. They almost look like new when you are done.


Posted By: gR@HaM
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 3:59pm
From what I remember depends on whether you have the original rail or not. I went for taco marine replacement rubrail and insert, got raped on import duty from US!!
If your looking to 'paint' the insert then best to check that it isn't already coated with a clear release agent as you could have problems with getting it to adhere. The same applies if looking to source silicone tube I would stick to EPDM

Yes 5/8" is correct. Spoke with someone at correct craft. Also said taco marine was the company that made the rub rail. Did not know if they made insert. Gonna check with them next.


Posted By: Hollywood
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 4:42pm
If you painted a rubrail I imagine you would have greater problems getting it to not unadhere whenever you rubbed anything.

-------------


Posted By: velde99
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 4:49pm
So I just got off the phone with Taco marine. They did in fact make the rub rails and inserts. They told me that they would make any color you want! But the minimum order is 2000 ft. So that leaves Zach at N3 to start taking orders. Would only need to sell 40 boats of each color ordered. So hope that helps everyone if you want oem.


Posted By: quinner
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 5:41pm
40 boats sounds like a tall order, who knows?? On Blue looks like we have 2, only 38 to go

Thanks for the info, if it does materialize I would definitely be in for one boat (50') of Vapor Blue or Silver metallic if available.


Posted By: velde99
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 5:53pm
Someone said you can use 16mm (outer diameter) silcone tubing. Blue is available in that size on eBay for under $4 a foot. Blue - Red - Yellow are also available. They have purple and pink too.


Posted By: Gary S
Date Posted: December-18-2013 at 11:11pm
I would be down for the red. How are you supposed to keep them original if you can't source them? Maybe we need to get our plastic expert,Dave Gwinn on this

Your ebay solution at $4 a foot x 50 feet is $200. That's some spendy rub rail inserts. What was the price of 2000 feet from Taco Marine? If we can get enough "blue guys" on here to get my cost down to $75 - $100 I'm in.

Steve,

The yellow/black '90 on the yellow tandem is the boat we launched at Arrowhead Marina &RV Park, Glenville, NY 12302, 518 382-8966 (free advertisement) in September and the one you got pics of along side your Barefooter. I think you even got some shots on the trailer parked next to your boat. Post them if you can, but I'm thinking the 90 is due for an outing at the CT mini 2014!!

Todd

Zach, who is in line for the Wineberry rubrail insert. Sounds like Hollywood needs red, and I would use on my 04 ski to replace the factory installed black. Send me a PM with the length to fit an 04 Ski and a price if it is available.

Posted By: velde99

Also black inserts from taco for 50' range from $89-$115- that without being customized. Those obviously are retail prices. Maybe if enough people prepay- Zach could do the project a little
Over cost. I need yellow- so I am guessing that will be tough to find 40 takers.

Ok so Here goes nothing.









Alright, the first two lenses I believe to be for the mid-late 60s bow lights.

The second one with the clear pieces I believe to be the lenses for the earlier-mid 60s rear all around light.

The bullet bow lights I have no clue

The other clear one is oddly shaped and I am not sure what it fits

The large ones I believe to fit the early large bow light (could be wrong)

The last ones are weird and I am also not sure what they fit

The quantities of the mid 60s are plenty. All of the others I just have a few.

Found some NOS mid-late 60s gauges. They are identical to what came out of our Skylark other than having orange pointers instead of white. Great original un used shape. I think I have enough to make 2 full sets of 4 IE(water temp, fuel, oil, volts).

Tach and single speedo mounts for early boats/tiques. I have 6-8 of these available.



Do you have any pics of what this would be used for? I can't seem to figure it out.

My 72 Skier

Chris, did those seats clean up that nice? The gel too. Man, I should have hung onto that boat.

The speedo mount Zach has looks like it would physically bolt up to a Skier or Tique. The lower hole with 4 bolt holes surrounding it go behind the steering bezel. The middle hole is for the tach, the speedo mounts above. No holes to drill! I dont know if this was ever available from the factory, as all the Tiques Ive seen got the black plexi version you have shown. Maybe it was an option on the Skiers? Or maybe Midwest made this later on to retrofit Tiques whose plexi broke? I dunno. All of the Skiers Ive seen out this way had speedos mounted directly to the dash, or none at all. This would be a nice way to add one to a boat that doesnt have any holes drilled in it yet. I dont think it would work on any SN's, as those either had the tach off to the side, or had provisions in the dash for mounting the speedos directly.

Tim, don't worry it still needs plenty of work! The deck has lots of small blemishes and cracks but nothing bad enough to keep us from running it a few years. Seats look alright but the buckets are in need of some fiberglass repair in the typical places.

Very interesting on the mounts, I wondered if that was the case. I'd be curious to see how they look installed. Zach, you may have to send one out with my next care package.

Tim, that's exactly what I was thinking. Once the plex got some sun exposure customers probably started breaking them off when they would accidentally push on them.

Easy fix? Aluminum bends and can be repaired if you smash it down. That's my vote.
