Just for discussion sake, you ain't getting anywhere near half done in a week. It just isn't possible. It is easily 150 hours, more like 200 if you have never been in there before.

Sounds like the "deluxe" interior. Do you have the actual seats or just the skins? This boat has the really basic interior with no corner pad and no bolstering in the seats, so I don't think just skins would work.
What color and what condition are they in? Where are you located? |

Does anyone know if the steering wheel from my 1993 Excel will fit the 85 Ski Nautique? The Excel is almost two hours away right now so I can't just pop it off and check it. I might move the steering wheel from that boat to the 85 and put the nice new one on the Excel instead.
What about the throttle knob? |

^ Still interested in an answer to that question if anyone has one.
Also, the boat came with an extra used prop shaft that I'd like to sell in the classifieds. Any idea what it's worth? The previous owner had some vibration so he sent the prop for balancing/repair. That didn't fix it so he replaced the prop shaft, coupling, supports, and bushings. Still didn't fix it, so he just lived with it. Then he nailed something that destroyed the prop. He put on a new prop and the vibration was gone. Presumably, this spare prop shaft is fine, but I'd give the new owner 30 days to install it, test it, and return it if it's no good. Not trying to burn anybody. |

Thx Kapla.
Is this chrome piece a steering wheel adapter? Did it come from the factory or is this an aftermarket piece? Is it just pressed on? I want to make sure I won't mess anything up before I put a steering wheel puller on it and start cranking. I picked up a nice Momo Marine wooden wheel from eBay with what looks like the correct adapter. I hope it fits, but for the price I got it I can buy a new adapter. |

It is from the factory and it is just pressed on with the key holding it in. You should be able to pull it straight out and it will come off.

I didn't see the key, but is it something I need to remove first or do I just pull it off?

What's still on the helm shaft is part of the wheel. It's just the center hub and not a adapter. Some hubs are part of the wheel and some will unbolt from the spokes like yours.
The hub will pull off with a plate type puller. It's on a taper just like a prop. You'll probably find a "Woodruff" key (half round) set in the shaft and the reason you can't see it now. |

The 1993 boat has a different steering shaft. It has 19 splines rather than the tapered key. Anyone know what this shaft type is called? I think I might buy the adapter for it and put this new steering wheel on there anyway. It's a Momo marine wheel that appears to be mahogany. It didn't look right on the 85, but it looked great on the 93 with the contoured dash and everything.
Also, do you think one of these generic Grant wheels will fit on the hub that comes with the 85 Nautique without needing an adapter? Something like this is what I was thinking: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/GRT-415/ After looking at some of their products I'm pretty sure the wheel that was on the boat when I bought it is a Grant, but it is done...Rust on the spokes and the handle is wrapped with electrical tape. Looks like junk. |

akabulla is right. I noticed right away that the battery box is too far aft. Someone's been in there ahead of you
