Title: Hello from So Cal!
Post by: 72Swinger on June 13, 2021, 01:02:25 PM

Just picked up a '72 Swinger with a newly rebuilt inboard 4cyl Volvo and in great shape for its age! Purchased from the son of original owner. My grandfather had a mid 70s Glas in the same green/white color scheme in VT and brings back fond childhood memories. This is the first boat I have owned so I know there will be challenges. Lol. Already  know that the shift cable will either need to be adjusted or replaced so will be looking thru posts for that. Hoping this forum will be a wealth of knowledge!

You could also do a "Youtube" search for cable adjustment.
