I once retrieved a small piece from a cylinder by putting a wad of thick grease on the end of a thin stick and putting it down there. Or try some masking tape wrapped around a stick and get it down there. I put a very small light on a stick first, just to see where it was at first. It helps to pray first, no kidding. all the best

Thanks Guys, I was in manufacturing myself (Douglas Aircraft co. Long Beach) It is always interesting to learn How they did it. I am assuming the lay up on my Miller is polyester? I have some repairs to do. She's been sitting a long time. Jim

Just wondering, when these boats are made they make a upper and lower part, then join them together. How do they bond them? Anyone been in Manufacturing?

Thank you one and all. I'll take one more good look and then if I come up empty, I'll have a number issued. I'll blast and paint the trailer next year, maybe I'll find them then. Thanks again GOD BLESS

I would just like to say that I live in a state, and near a large lake that saftey is LAST. Every big holiday weekend there is ether a fatality or severe injury. Recently two kids being pulled in a tube were hit by a Jet Ski going Mach 2 and not paying attention. the parents of one child had to make the decision to remove her from life support.On Memorial day weekend a drunk rammed his fishing boat into a pontoon and killed two brothers 9 and 13. It is a wild circus out there, no flag required for downed skier. We must police ourselves or the Government will. BE SAFE

« on: September 17, 2012, 11:23:45 AM »

Hello Folks, Just bought a 77 Miller with a Miller trailer. The paperwork for the trailer is lost so I have to find the ID on the trailer. Question : Did the Millers have a ID PLATE or was the number just stamped in somewhere? Where should I look? Can any Miller owners out there help me Thank you Jimmi
