Any updates on the progress of the dredging at Braddocks ?

Is this boat still available?

What is your asking price?

i’m not sure of the process being used I was at the marina this afternoon and the Dredge and barge were jockeying around a bunch of pipe in the launch area However this is going to play out it looks like it is about to begin

I saw a couple posts on the channel getting dredged starting early March with completion by early April I hope this comes to fruition, has anyone heard anything different Thanks

Price?

I think you already got you Fathers Day Present you’ll have a tough time beating that one Great story all the best

Where are you located

Thanks for the tip

Thanks guys I wasn’t aware of those options

I agree Are there any live web cameras that you could get a read on near shore conditions I used to see a Weatherbug feed from Forest Lawn but that no longer seems to be up and running

I enjoy your reports back in the early 80’s John and Frances and I fished together a lot out of Braddocks Bay I’m still at it though on a smaller scale your mention of them brought back great memories Tight Lines

Thanks I’ll check it out

I’ll check it out thank you for the tip

Wind

Looking for input on a weather app for Lake Ontario South shore

Yes it does I looked at the charts you sent you nailed it

I sent a email to marineengine.com they responded with no results on that serial number too

I’ll check it out thanks

Not knowing the history of this boat I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not a 80 hp (that’s the decal on the cowling) Mercury also made 75 hp motors on this 3 cylinder platform best I can tell its of a 1982 vintage although the serial number has a 75 in it and I don’t get an exact match up when searching on the serial # online As far as the ignition issue I described in my last post you’re correct I believe Mercury calls the control module the coils are wired to a Switch Box those wires all look okay I did check them for rust and broken insulation etc.I checked the grounds for continuity the anomaly I saw in the spark test tool on the Top cylinder is quite different from the middle and bottom cylinders and the fact I didn’t move the issue swapping coils makes me think the switch box is faulty I haven’t looked to see how much they are but I’m sure they’re not cheap I hate just throwing parts at a problem not fully understanding the root cause Im slowly learning the ins and outs of this motor I really appreciate your knowledge as well as the other guys and your willingness to help me out Thanks

Hi guys I hooked up a in-line spark tool & set up my phone on a tripod so I could video in a dark garage The Top Cylinder looked very different (weaker in my opinion) than the middle and bottom I then swapped the coils between the top and middle and repeated the test this did NOT move the weaker signal to the middle cylinder So at this point I would think I have an issue with the ignition control module i tried to attach the videos but was unsuccessful so would I be on the right track replacing the module the coils are wired to or is there something else I can check at this point Also if you have recommendations as to where your buying parts please send them along The other issue I’ve run into is looking up this motor by its serial number it is Canadian built I’ll attach a photo of the serial number
