Casale V-drive angle

[BWB]

I never remember, what angle is Casale model number 62500-2?
Thanks

[RiverRacer]

That would be a 12 degree!..

[BWB]

Thank you, I need a 10 degree with 1:18's. I knew the price was too good for a 10 degree!

[RiverRacer]

You're welcome, you get what you pay for huh, LOL...

BWB hello i`m in mass by the canal,what have you got?

[BWB]

It is going in a 1970's Wesco (old style, with a mid deck).

I have a 10* casale I will part with. It is a basket case right now and would need a major over haul. You could pull all your stuff out of your 12* and put it in the cases if needed.

Not to muddy up the water but not all 625XXX are 12 degree. Look at the top right hand side of the v drive and you may see 10 degree stamped, I have seen 10 to 20 % that way. j.j.

Yes, I am a returning member from "Before The Crash". Same name, I think. Chris Mattoon at Berkshire Wooden Boat in Dalton, MA. www.berkshirewoodenboat.net
The only fun we have had in the past three or four years with flatbottoms is working on them and selling them back out of state! THIS YEAR, we will have something in the water for our use. We have three that we have been working on: a Rayson Craft model XVIII, a Frahs and most recently a Wesco. The Wesco looks like it will be the first in the water.
So as far as water goes, I hope we will find out this summer. We have a couple of small lakes in town, but probably the best prospects are the CT. and Hudson rivers.

That's right forgot about that, best way is to use a protractor that'll tell the truth!..

Hi Chris we have spoken,I owe you a huge apology.You were going to do a stringer for me and i went and got cheap.I bought the boat three years ago sight unseen in Seattle its kind of a family heirloom,I had family pick it up and put it in storage for 18 mos. at 140.00 a month then drove 6,000 miles to bring it home,i was under the impression that i bought a sound boat(wrong) after two rides it was apparent that something was wrong i believe thats when i spoke to you.At the time i was working for a person that i thought was a good guy i was wrong he bailed and sold his fishing boat to the feds for a quick dime so i posted looking for someone to fix my boat for cheap giving them 6-8 mos while i was out of town got a instant response from a somewhat local willing to do it for cheap given the time frame,thought i had a solution,nope,I ground and resined dowels last night filling the drive mount holes and redrilling the correct locations,I so wish i would have brought it to you retrospect is a killer,My humble apologies,PONCHO
