Projects / Motor install
« on: May 12, 2008, 03:03:37 PM »
I am going to install a BBC with a 4 point mount into a boat that had a 460 on a three point set up. I was told to have the motor 1 degree down from the pump. Does this sound right to you guys? Also I was wondering how far back to set the motor: do I install the shaft and but it up to the pump or do I leave a little play? Thanks for any help.

Someone told me you can just safety wire that nut so it wont fall off. After looking at it I don't think that would be a problem.

Hulls / Re: No hull ID on boat

What about the max persons/weight tag? Should I just not worry about that too? I think I will stamp the HIN number onto a piece of stainless and rivet that on. It is a 1982 Condor. If that helps at all. Thanks for the help.

Hulls / No hull ID on boat
« on: May 03, 2008, 04:05:08 PM »
I bought a project boat awhile back and I am just now realizing that it does not have the hull VIN on the back of the right transom and no metal ID tag mounted on the inside. The registration went thru fine and is all in my name now. Should I be worried when I take this out? Do you guys think that anyone will even question it? I will only take the boat to the Blythe area of the river where there are never really any cops. Or is there a way to fix this some how?

We normally go up to the sand bar by the water pumping station early in the day then we head in to goose flats to finish off the day. I will keep a look out for your boats this summer.

I have been going out there for every few weeks since feb. Even if I don't do anything it is just a nice get away. We are going mothers day weekend and then back Memorial Day. I would like to have my boat ready by then but I doubt it. When summer comes around we got out every two weeks.

Yeah I think you are right next door to us. We used to cruise over there when they had karaoke a couple of years ago but I don't leave the park in a golf cart at night anymore. I got pulled over once and that was enough.
Silly Al's is open again. Pretty good pizza too.

I am new here so I thought I would say hi. I stumbled accross this forum looking for parts for my project boat. So far it seems like a good place to get info on jet boats. Currently I am working on a 1982 Condor jet. I picked it up about a month ago and it is just a hull and a pump. I have already found a complete engine and motor mounts for it from this forum and I havent even been on here for 24 hours. I will post some pics up soon. I plan on having this in the water by June on a broke budget. All of my friends and I go to the Blythe area of the river. Quite a few of us are in the Colorado River Oasis park in Ehrenberg AZ. Hope to see you guys out there. If anyone has any info on Condor boats please let me know. I cant really find too much about them. Thanks.
