1987 32 FB Sedan for sale

In checking Nashville craigslist today I found a new listing that happens to be docked across from me at Center Hill Marina. I know the boat, and the owner, and can vouch for both. Original from the factory with brown trim, thus its name, Brown Eyes. Anyone looking for an exceptional boat should che...

Re: Salon sliding screens

My Son used the following company when ordering the retractable screen for his 37' Marinette.

Screen Solutions inc. 6705 Hwy 290 W. # 502 Austin, Tx 78735 doug@plissescreen.com 866-571...

Re: Salon sliding screens

My son installed these on his 1977 37'' Marinette just last summer and they work very well. He is also a registered member of the forum and I'll ask him to reply with information as to what he bought..

Re: Prop Sizes?

I have a 1972 28' Express, single 318 and am fortunate to have the original delivery sheet from the factory which shows it delivered with a 14/10. This is what I'm running now and when I finally got the boat on my home water last summer ran it up to 27 mph, according to the GPS. Tach wasn't working ...

28' Express for sale

While visiting the Nashville Boat Show this weekend I ran into a friend who happens to be a partner in a local Marina and a houseboat dealership. He tells me he has a 1968, 28' Express that he just listed for a friend. He only had one exterior picture and the boat has red trim, which I believe is so...

Re: Marine Air

Thanks Eric. I'm still trying to decide what to do as far as air conditioning is concerned. I'll pull some information on Flagship Marine and check it out.

Re: Want to Buy 28' x 8.5' Express

Addicted, Welcome aboard. As the owner of a 1972, single 318, 28' Express, if you find one you're going to love it. My 72 model has a 10.5 beam and believe anything built after the mid 60's will be likewise. Plenty of room for a week end as we will spend at least two weekends a month aboard ours. On...

Re: Marine Air

Thanks Bill. The 28' has fwd/aft seating and the area under the aft seating is were I plan on installing the unit. I can pull the boat long enough to install tru hull fittings and go from there, if I can find a reasonable unit. If not I guess I'll spend the night at home in July and August. I believ...

Marine Air

I'm considering adding marine air to my 28' express and would like to find a used unit at a reasonable price. I've looked at all of the previous post and don't much care for the portable units. In fact, my Son gave me one of the free standing, vent out the window units for Fathers Day but after much...
