Location: Lake Travis, Texas (Austin). Going to be a restoration of sorts and my lower purchase cost reflects work ahead. Getting the bottom redone this week...zebras in mass! Can't stop reading this forum and learning a lot, plus going through the extensive manuals. Engine is original Universal 25 and in great condition with less than 1000 hrs. Doing the air cleaner K&N RU-0370 mod plus Lots of questions coming your way...to begin with, I ordered the Alternator low bracket mod. I searched this forum and got a lot of great info on this mod...question: Folks recommended replacing the original alt. for a 90 amp. Why? Also question #2, is the correct recommended oil filter the NAPA/Wix 1064 that will fit behind the low alt bracket? Lots more questions in the future; please be patient...in my much younger days I was a 6 year Sea Scout and 1 year commodore...plus owned another 22' Chrysler sloop a several decades ago so I am in love with sailing! Presently retired Law Enforcement (pilot) so living on Uncle Sugar retirement has its limits!!! Thanks!! Larry
