There are a lot of advantages of fiberglass boats. Fiberglass doesn't rust, corrode, or rot; it's an extremely strong material, and it's very lightweight. But it does have one major enemy: sunlight. To prevent fading and dulling, make sure to apply wax and sealer to your fiberglass hull as recommended by the manufacturer.
The bearings in marine alternators are specially configured and typically require particular types of grease designed to provide better protection and lubrication at the higher loads and running temperatures common with boat engines.
There are two general types of outboard motors on the market these days: 2 stroke and 4 stroke. In many cases, 2 stroke motors are recommended, as they usually offer better acceleration out of the hole and have an excellent power to weight ratio.
The needs of marine upholstery are unique in that you to consider dampness, sunlight and hard usage. Durable, stain-resistant fabrics that can handle constant exposure to the elements are the way to go.
Total facelift restoration. We painted the hull in Awl Craft Ice Blue, the topsides in Awl Craft Oyster White, and applied Awl Craft Non Skid, made custom seating, custom T-Top frame, acid treating the aluminum, aluma primed, and painted the frame in Awl Craft Oyster White. We met two incredible people who we now call friends. Thank you Hannah and James Nevil, we really enjoyed working on your boat and having your trust in us!
If the electric systems on your boat are having trouble, the problem could be in your battery, your alternator, or the connections between them, but it can be tough to track down. Fortunately, alternator experts know these systems cold, so they can find the problem and fix it.
