Hello Everyone! I just bought an old Correct Craft. Supposed to be a 1962 or 63. How do I find out what model it is? It has an Interceptor motor. It was delivered today - I'm so excited! Thank you

You could try the http://www.correctcraftfan.com/reference/ - REFERENCE section at the top of this page, I see every year from '60-'66 listed in the brochures page, or just post a TON of pictures here, we love that game.

Congrats on the new purchase, and welcome to the CCFan family! Now gets some pics up, we wanna see it!

The pictures are too close up so we can't get an overall view. What's the length and which engine does it have? It could be a Compact Skier or an Atom Skier. Also find the ID plate. It should be under the dog house (engine enclosure). The serial number will start with letter(s). That will tell us as well.

Welcome to CCfan.

OK!! More pictures!! It's an Atom. No deck covering board overhang from the hull sides that the Compact would have.

Sweet ride Babette, have you had it in the water yet?
(Sorry I can't offer any explanation on what you have, but if you resize those pictures to about 600x400 pixels they'll fit on the page a lot better)
Congrats again!

Yes, sorry about the pictures. I'm a dope with that, I'll have my little neice show me how to do it! No, hasn't been in the water yet -- definately this weekend. I don't even no when it was last IN the water. I guess I should be worried???

OK, I stand corrected! The "CS" does stand for "Compact Skier". They both were the same length.

Does it run? I have to assume it does since you want to get it out on the water!!

Steve, Maybe you came chime in here and give some pointer on the YH carb?? I'm going up Saturday morning and will be seeing how my YH rebuilds will work out - first project on the list!!!

Babette,
The wood boat group here on CCfan is on the low side so, make sure you go to the diaries section and submit pictures and text to Keith (site administrator) so he can get you up in that section. There's a icon to click on in that section.

I sure hope it floats too!! A plywood hull should never leak. If the seller told you something like "all it needs is to be soaked to swell up the wood" then you have a problem!! The CC ply hull as well as their traditional caravel planked hulls suffered from issues with the bedding compound they used to try to seal all the seams. After all the years, it dried out and is now a seam leak!! Your boat most likely just had a "cosmetic" job done to it. That's basically just a paint job and not digging into the problems further.

Ha! Yeah, it doesn't go. Point me in the direction of what the steering wheel should be. Put it in the water yesterday. Stupid thing to do before a storm! Anyway, it had a few engine issues (smoking, rattling, needs a new belt) but what a neat boat. I was born in '63 and it's a '62 or '63 so that's just the icing on the cake.

Sorry about the water test trouble but hopefully nothing to serious.

Babie,

How long has it been since the boat has actually been used? You may already know this, but, your engine is a six banger Ford commonly used in the Falcons.Either an 85HP or a 100HP. Same as my 64. You can click on my 64 link to see more pics .

You might want to do a little "driveway" testing before getting too far out in the water. You can hook a garden hose up to the water intake side of the water pump. You can the run it to check what the engine is doing. Also check for any gas leaks in the fuel stystem.... tank, lines, fuel pump, carb, etc.

As for steering wheel, I started restoring mine...here is what the original from my boat looks like.

Ooo, love that steering wheel! I need to find some good bouys to keep it away from my dock. It sits even with the dock and wants to bash it. I've got normal bumpers but they just don't cut it. I'm leaning towards those bouys that look like a basket ball floating in the water. Keep the boat completely away from the dock?

Posted By: 62 wood
Date Posted: September-01-2011 at 11:59pm
NOT GOOD!!!!....BIG QUESTION is what came unglued to cause it? I'm guessing a rod? Have you tried to spin the motor over?

Looks like the bilge is full of "chocolate milk" oil....(water in it).

I assume it was running then stopped abruptly?

Yes, I was driving it. The motor started roaring and I shut it off. There was a bit of regular bilge water in the bottom of the boat already. We'll have a better Idea of what when wrong within the oil pan this weekend. I have to get it out of the water and the engine out of the boat. Yes the motor still spins, thank goodness. I'm not giving up on this boat.


Posted By: 62 wood
Date Posted: September-02-2011 at 1:48am
Good attitude! Keep it going!

I have the same situation in my 62 Classic (water in oil...not broken pan) I bought this boat with a freshly rebuilt engine...less than an hour of run time. Drained oil a couple of weeks ago and was greeted with 3 qts of water before any oil came out. Soooo........





nowwwwwwww... I pulled the entire floor, interior, gas tank, etc, etc, Last night I pressure washed the bilge and am ordering paint for it...



I still question what made the hole in your oil pan. Take the oil filter off and note if it has plain oil , or if it looks like chocolate milk.... plain oil=engine was not run with water in oil, chocolate milk= water was in oil when engine was running.

Thanks for the compliment!! can hardly wait to get her wet!!!


"Milky oil" in the filter is not a good sign.. Water can get in oil a number of ways...thru a bad head gasket, cracked head, cracked exhaust manifold, cracked block, etc. Cracked parts are sometimes the result of poor/no winterization. (water in these areas freeze and will crack the metal.) Most of these require tearing into engine.

I kinda "lucked out" on the Classic, (if water in pan can be lucky). My oil filter had straight oil, no water, so engine was probably not run with the water in oil. We think the water intrussion in my engine came from rain water running in the top of the motor. The PO had started to replace the intake manifold and never got the job done. The Classic sat outside, under a cover..... with a hole in it and we think rain water just ran into the opened engine...

Here a pic of it just before tearing into it....



The good? .....it will make it a LOT easier to paint everything ONE color!!!

no, it's out of the water but the engine hasn't been pulled yet. A closer inspection reveals a broken crankshaft and of course that connecting rod is busted. I don't have high hopes for that motor. But I didn't buy it for the motor, I bought it for the boat -- what other motor could go in it?

Babbie, you have a great attitude.


Posted By: 62 wood
Date Posted: September-05-2011 at 9:57pm
Babbie,
A broken rod is what I was afraid of. The easiest engine to put back in the boat would be the same as came out, the flywheel forward six banger. Problem is finding one. They werent used that many years. And if you do find one, chances are it wont be in running condition.

The next option is to reload with a V8. This would require some re-work in the hull...engine/tranny mounts, another exhaust hole in transom, throttle/shift linkage rework, possible engine cover clearance issues,
etc.

Do you have someone that can do the work, or will you have to pay someone? This could enter into part of the decision...
You may be able to find a running V8, What about rebuilding your 6 banger?

gotta go..have to eat...more suggestions later....

I believe I have someone to do the work. The first thing would be to try to rebuild. The engine is still in the boat so I'm really jumping the gun with questions because I don't know yet what it'll need. I just want to have some options in place should the original motor be unusable. Which I hope is not the case. If it is the case, I'll reload it with a trolling motor just to get it back in the water next year!!


Posted By: 62 wood
Date Posted: September-05-2011 at 11:51pm
I would get the engine out and tear it down...see what actual problems you have and hopefully find what caused them. Big thing is to find out if the block is useable and can be rebuilt. One good thing is, this engine is basically an automotive, Ford Falcon engine, not plentiful, but "donor" cars can still be found. here is a guy with some
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1962-Ford-Falcon-170-ci-Engine-Block-C1DE-6015-A-/370515412267?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item564470852b - 170 Falcon parts on ebay right now.... wrong end of the country, but they are out there....

One thing to watch, they made this engine in a 144, 170 and 200CI model and I dont think the 200 is a direct bolt in. ( I will probably find out someday)

Regardless of your decision, you have 6 or 7 months to find parts and get it running before next summer.

Another place to look is Craigslist... here is a http://norfolk.craigslist.org/pts/2583785763.html - complete 170 in Norfolk for $100 !!!! This would have the short block you need for a rebuild ..... might be worth talking with him?

You dont happen to know if it is an 85 or 100 HP engine?

Otherwise, the best way to find out is to measure the stroke. Both the 144 and 170 have the same bore. Even if you happen to have a 144, I think the 170 will be a direct replacement. I dont know everything about these engines, but learned a lot last year when I had to replace the head on my 170.

Gary, as you remember, it took a loooonnnggg time to get my 6 banger figured out last year when I replaced the head....sad thing is I just got my second "Phord" book for my library... this time for the dang 312 in the Classic.

WHY couldnt they have used more Bowties back then?

I heard once that Chris Craft had something to do with it. Almost all of them had Bowties...

When my Chebie buddies give me crap about having Fords in the boats, I tell them they figured out that they run faster backwards than forward!

Hello!! Glad to hear from you. We pulled the motor and took it down to our marine engine friend. The block was really destroyed, cracked with a big hole in it, etc. At this point we've got some time, so we're keeping our eyes out for a replacement Falcon motor, either whole or in pieces. If that doesn't work there are companies that build replacement blocks. Gonna try to stay as vintage as I can and hope that pans out. Keeping my eye on eBay, etc. nNice to hear from you. Babbie

I was at a swap meet today and remembered your post from this morning. There was a falcon booth and he has a '63 260 std, and a '64 289 .030 over; both with other parts. Since we're on opposite ends of the east coast I didn't ask about particulars, but he'll be at the meet tomorrow and I have his # if you want more details.

Were Falcon steering wheels used on any CC's? He had 4.

Babbie,

Glad to hear you are planning to get the ol girl running again. Are you able to have the original oil pan repaired?

Greg, A 250 will not work. The only engines that will hook back up to the trans is the 144 or 170 6 banger. A 200 has the same patten, but I think it will need some modifications to work, one being notching the oil pan to clear the extra crank throw from a longer stroke.

I AM still a "DIE HARD BOWTIE BOY"!

I actually now have two blue-oval books in my library..These d@mned old boats have forced me to learn a lot more than I ever wanted to about furds... first the big bad 6 banger .. now the 312 in the Classic.   

............just dont tell any of my buddies!

Babbie, you might want to order one of those books!

My bad Steve. Once again, anything non 88 BFN befuddles me.

The good news, going on the conversation, is I'm thinking he has 6 bangers as well. That is if the shipping isn't prohibitive.

Here are the wheels. He also has a number of the center pieces(horn lever?).

Save all the pieces of the pan. It can be welded back together. If you find a block, you will need the cast pan. It's part of the marinization "package".

I looked through some pics of older boats and the closest wheel to these is on Steve's Classic. Were these ever on CC's? Are they worth bothering with?

I don't mind going back over today if there is interest, but they will only be there as long as they have a crowd and today is the last meet this year.

The wheel shown earlier in this post was on my 64 A. Skier, and is a boat-specific wheel(I've seen them on other brands as well).

As did a lot of boat mfgr's, CC used auto wheels a lot. My 62 Classic is from an early 60's Plymouth Valiant. My 66 Cuda SS is from a late 50's Mercury Turnpike Cruiser. My 62 Higgins wheel is from an early 50's Willys Overland.

I personally have not seen the wheels you pictured used on a boat. They are cool tho.

Yes, we saved all of the oil pan pieces. I think one of those 3 spoke steering wheels would be cool. If you could get me the name and number of that swap meet dealer, that would be cool.

I'm going back over in a few Babbie. Do you want me to pick one up? The one on the right in the 2nd pic? I'm asking because he may not be big into shipping. Not worried about a 170 block?

I don't know if he'd mind me posting his info or not. I better ask the way some folks are around here.

Yes, second on the left. That would be great. I am worried about the block but I have other people looking too so having him as a source for the future is all I need right now.

Oh well, the falcon guy wasn't there today. I'll call him tomorrow. I did see 2 other wheels...1 impala and a smaller version of what was on my '79 without the center cap but I never know, so...

I did find what I needed Tim- vroom vroom!

Be careful on the steering wheel mount. Most "car wheels" use splined shafts. My 64 has a keyed slot in the wheel's hub, with a roll pin in the shaft.
