I know what Scruffy Saltare is referring to. I was with him at the Lake Geneva boat show. We discussed how the boats in the water were able to stop and start and remain straight in the water going...

Thanks for all of the ideas. I will be checking these issues you have mentioned this summer. Will let you all know what I find out. Again, thanks for all the input from everyone.

Also, what engine is in the boat?

One of my daughters likes to ski. Then they both will go tubing. Other than that just cruising the lake and enjoying the scenery. This summer I am changing direction and going to Green Lake WI. ...

I probably sinned real bad by removing the wave decals at the back of the boat. They were shot. At any rate Supra had the name and Nike swoosh, I believe, on their 2008 boats. I saw them on here...

gogger, what year is your Pirata and where are the two bilge pumps located. I have a 1988 and it has one in the front. I had it replaced when the stringer job was done last year and Donnie used a...

Hey guys, thanks for all the ideas. When I have run the engine with the boat on the trailer I have water running through the engine. Also, I have water running on the shaft and where it goes...

If the clutch pack is locked solid in the velvet drive, why would it run the prop both forward and reverse while sitting on the trailer. The fluid is fine. The back bearing where the shaft comes...

My thread "Transmission Won't Move Boat" was part of the postings. Went in to answer some replies and was told to log in since I could not reply until doing so. I had logged in and was welcomed...

The engine is running normal, NO sputtering, missing or anything. If you are familiar with a tractor pull where the weight is being loaded on until the point when the load is too much and then the...

I have a 1988 Pirata. No tower. Am not into the wake boarding so do not need a tower. Would insert a picture but am having trouble loading it on this message.

Yes, the boat was on the trailer and I placed the trans in forward, neutral, then reverse. The prop turned in both directions and would go faster if you revved the engine. The engine in neutral...

One other thought. The boat was running perfectly when I put it away in the fall. Drove to the lake (432 miles) and dumped it in the lake. Would not move. It is like a spring or something might...

Where would you hook the pressure gauge to the trans. There is two hoses. I imagine one is IN and the other OUT. Also, what should the pressure read. Thanks for the info.

Here's the problem. I have a Borg Warner 72C behind a big block Buick. Motor starts right up. Put the trans in gear and it will move forward and reverse. Place the boat in the water and the...

I have an 88 Pirata. The boat was in great shape and well take care of. However, the floor and stringers were toast. I had Donnie Bennett do the work. He told me it won the contest for taking...

I have a 72C Velvet Drive in my 88 Supra Pirata. The engine is a 454 and says 350 hp on the plate, however, I have heard these are usually 330 hp. Have the same trans in a 63 Century behind a 425...

Maybe another source for that canvas would be through Iboats. I purchased a 88 Supra Pirata. Needed a canvas for it when pulling down the road. It had the type of canvas your are talking about,...
