    atalantic towers hardtop's anyone get one from them?

    Had one on my 20 Overniter for 10 years...no problem at all.. loved it. Frame work is super, the top is alittle thin, but it was never a issue. If you go with the one in this pic, be sure to get the front supports as well...not included.

Tried many things to bring it back....the best by far..Boeshield T-9....spray it on, rub it around with your fingers to coat ( you'll see a difference immediately) and don't use a rag..you want to leave it on to...

Might need to remove the floor panel to access the vent and remove the hose...I'd blow compressed air thru the hose to make sure...

    Prop question

    Just bought a 1995 adventure 20 (208 SeaV2 hull). Has a 175 Yamaha 2 stroke that runs great. Seems to be abit slow out of the hole, requires more rpm to get up to speed ( had a 20 Overniter with the same engine and prop that seemed to perform abit better...I know the 95 is a heavier boat )...

    208 adventure

    Man...I don't see how any of this is good. That hull is not designed for that big 4 stroke. You have an engine about 200 lbs. heavier than the original 2 stroke....then you added 500lbs. of ballast??!! That's like having 3 to 4 guys fishing with you at all times, want them or not!! Can't be good...

    replacing thru hulls on 1997 208 adventure

    Just did the helm/fish box thru hulls on my 90 204 Overniter. Took the under seat tackle box out from under the passenger seat to gain port side access....made it easy. Starboard side alittle tougher.....access thru the round hatch cover in front of the helm seat pedestal.....not much room to...

    204 Overniter repower

    Thanks guys......I'm in California.....HPDI is no longer available here. If you have a 200 Yamaha 4 stroke, aren't your scuppers underwater with this older hull? Thinking that weight along with acouple of big guys in back fighting fish it could be a problem. The Suzuki 175 4 stroke is another...

    204 Overniter repower

    Looking to repower my 89 Overniter. Has the original 175 Yamaha 2 stroke. After much investigation, looks to me like the best choice, weight being a huge issue, would be the Yamaha 150 4 stroke.....rather not go 2 stroke again. Anyone done this repower?.....How is it working for you?....Which...

    gelcoat color match...

    Have an 89 Overniter. What are the colors and proportions needed to match original gelcoat. Gelcoat is in excellent shape, other than port rear corner where a surge slammed us into a dock and knocked a bit off the corner. Would like to repair this. Any help appreciated....thanks!

    repower question....

    Have a 1990 Overniter with original 175 Yamaha 2 stroke. Looking to repower to a 4 stroke. Yami and Honda only make a 150 and a 200 in this power range. The 200 is too heavy for this age boat (scuppers too low) and not sure the 150 has enough power. Was looking at the Suzuki 175 4 cyl. 4...

    repowering an Overniter...

    I have a 1990 Overniter 20. Still running the original Yamaha 175 and it runs great. Was thinking about repowering at some point and was wondering if it is possible to mount twin 90 4 strokes on that transom. Looking for twin engine reliability since I take the boat 60 miles offshore at times...
