Re-Wiring/Rigging in Tampa Bay/Orlando
« on: August 14, 2010, 03:08:01 PM »
Guys,
Anybody in the area need some re-wiring done, a new engine install, some electronics installed, pretty much any rigging or installation you can think of, and don't want to tackle it yourself, give me a call, or drop me a line.  A lot cheaper than those high-dollar marinas, and you get your boat back in working order, or working the way you want it, QUICK!

Chris,
Port Charlotte is a little far for me to travel to so a job that would basically take about an hour.  I can draw you a gauge wiring diagram if you want, it's really very simple.  What make of motor do you have, and what brand of gauges are you getting?

K. The gauges i am looking at are the Faria Euro Whites. What i want to do is combine some of the gauges with some Multi Function gauges. For Example my system check to a FARIA EURO WHITE 7K TACH WITH SYSTEM CHECK. Then i want to add a Fuel Gauge and maybe a Trim Gauge. The project isnt going to start intill Oct or Nov and i willing to drive to tampa if need.

P.S. Let me know if these Faria are good gauges, because right now i have different kind and color installed.

Thank You again
Chris

Chris,
If you can bring her just a little further north to Weeki Wachee, I'b be happy to do the job for you, as well as tidy up your helm if need be.

We have been using Faria's at Proline for quite some time now, in fact most builders use them as Teleflex has gotten out of the gauge business.  Matter of fact, Proline uses the Euro Whites with a SS bezel that PL has specially built for them.

Let me know, I'm about 40 minutes N of the Tampa Airport...

I have an 87 Osprey 200 with the original console & wiring. All the switches, lights, fuse panel, battery switch, and gauges need to be rewired pretty bad - basically everything in the center console.

How long of a job is that for you?

Scott,
Would be looking at a few days, especially building you new switch/gauge/fuse panels.  Is this just limited to the console, or are we talking about running wires throughout the boat?

The latest girl to come over, waterdoc's Pursuit 28 I/B...


And she is a mess behind the helm...


But she does have a nice brand new 496...


And a funky, stand on the console upper station.  I mean, I've seen them before, but this ones a bit difficult to get there...


See what we can do with her...

Does it come with a shoe horn for engine maintenance?? Man that engine looks like it would be a nightmare to work on.. :scratch:

Marc,
Not bad, once you see it.  Access outboards is pretty decent compared to a lot I've worked on, you can re-pack the stuffing box with a minimum of difficulty, rudder is easy...

Gonna have to drill out the bolts holding his hull zinc on...Pursuit dropped the ball on that install...

23 Seacraft from a THT member in Stuart.  Had to vacate the console first.  2 batts, water tank, VRO tank, and trim tab pump...then, to get it clean enough to work in!!



The usual bird's nest...
