Hard to suggest anything without seeing or at least knowing the diameter of the drain hole, like suggested above you might have to inlarge it a bit and install a new drain fitting, clean the area real good and use 3M 5200 marine adhesive around the new fitting and screw holes, something like this: h...

There is a very very small hole in front of the lower unit, try blowing it with some air, if that doesn't work, get a single strand from downrigger cable of brake cable and try that, you'll know when it clears because some water and gunk will come out. DO NOT use a thicker wire then the hole because...

I had a cable steer and hated it, constantly had to keep my foot on the pedal to track straight otherwise it had a mind of its own :roll: I could only use it when I am up front, traded it in for a power drive with co pilot and couldn't be happier, it tracks straight, the pedal comes with 20' cable a...

40 lb will do the job on a 14' boat
don't forget you'll have to carry a good size(50 to 70 lbs) deep cycle battery to last you the day.

If you can use "through the hull" method, that will be your best bet, careful with choosing the location, and use proper transducer epoxy, once set, its very hard(if not impossible) to remove without some damage. but if you must drill and install a transom mounted transducer, use 3M Marine...

I own a 2003 Crestliner Fish Hawk 1650sc, it suites my needs for now, I love the boat, great layout, fish-ability and fit & finish, However I am not impressed by latest models of Crestliner(2005 and newer) and I don't like it when some one tells me that I can not put a motor of my choice on MY b...

Downeast Salties will take the punishment but they are rough on the reels/rods, I use RAM 114B for large dipsys, they are plenty strong but a little hard to get the rod out under pressure(salmon fishing), not a big problem and you can't beat the price IMO. http://www.custommounts.com/RAM_Fishing_Rod...
