Another question: Where can a guy get that steering wheel and the dash panel?! Absolutely love them. Wanting to make some changes like this to mine.

He picked up the steering wheel online and a local company did the aluminum dash piece

I am having issues with my fiberglass on the top cap. Was wondering if you might take a look at it and give me your opinion. I can PM you if needed. Thanks.

Yeah, just PM me some pictures

I had a member IM me about the through hole fittings in the motor splash well. I gonna post it here with the info and links so others can see also. We got the 3 1/2 tube but it was a tad too long and I trimmed it up with my dremel tool about a 1/4 longer then the transom thickness. Put the tube in place then insert the tool to flange the ends. Works great and seals really well with out any sealant, but I would still use some if it were me. Let me state this, if you have a plastic one that screw together they are junk! Better replace them now, that is the only reason this Cobra's transom was shot. Here are the links:

I have a 2001 201d. I recently noticed some indications of flex a my transom. What was the deciding factor to use SeaCast - vs - wood - vs - someone hint like a synthetic board like Coosa Board? How did you verify the stringers were intact and not rotted?
