Quoted from tp:

20150210_013251.jpg (Click image to enlarge) decided to tear mine down last night and clean and brighten her up. Got this pic at 2am.

I sold mine to TP a while ago and regretted it ever since. I am stoked to say that I was able to find another one and I'm back now in the club!! Baywatch has some serious sentimental value for me.

When I lived in Hawaii, my neighbor was David Hasselhoff's stunt double. On the North Shore, space is at a premium. Sometimes you have to choose between a dining room table or pinball machine. I did not have any space, so I would go to my neighbors house and always play his Baywatch pinball machine that he got from the show when they filmed Baywatch Hawaii. It was the only Pinball that I knew off on the island of Oahu.
After I had to leave the island because of work, I moved to New Jersey. I was searching craigslist for Pinball's and found a Baywatch a few hours for me. I quickly snatched that puppy up, and I gave it some serious love. For reasons I still do not understand, I ended up selling it. It lasted longer though then my Addams Family, no good gophers, Corvette, junkyard, and many other games that are rated much higher than on Pinside and IPDB.
Anyways, I have missed this pinball machine more than any other one that I have gotten rid of. This one is not going anywhere.
Happy Aloha Friday everyone!!!

Hey gang! Does anyone have an extra speedboat plastic that goes over the shooter lane area? My coil for the auto launch got so hot that it has a gnarly melted spot on it now.
Thanks for any help!

I got a hair up my ass and decided to do a complete tear down on Baywatch. I took some pictures but apparently not enough. I have two plastics that I do not know where they go. Would someone be so kind to take a picture of them on their machine and post them for me? I greatly appreciate it

You are right HSD, you will have to do a little tear down to get to all the GIs. Not as bad as some mention though-hell even my dumb ass was able to do it

#342 8 years ago

I followed this guys instructions for a lot and it helped. Good luck

Has anyone had issues with the trap door tower lock being to slow to open when shooting the tower? It is a tad too late and ends up either getting hung up on the top of the door then dropped back down or multiball is activated when I hit it hard enough to make it all the way around the wire form tripping the switch.
I have replaced the coil, coil sleeve, and switch.
Any ideas are really appreciated.

Great thanks guys. I will try adjusting the switch again. I tried a little before with no results but sounds like I need to put a little more effort into it. Thanks all!

Hey Gang!
Anyone have an extra boat plastic that goes on top of the shooter lane / ball launch area? Mine is busted up and I would really appreciate a replacement. If anyone has an extra one they are willing to part with please let me know and I will send Paypal payment.
Thanks!

Quoted from Rondogg:

Just printed a new boat plastic. Here it is side by side with the crispy one.

These are awesome! If you make more slap me on the list please to order one. Had the same coil melt mine in the same spot and would love a replacement!

Quoted from gweempose:

Can you guys backhand the left ramp (guard tower)? My left flipper is just strong enough to backhand it for a lock, but there is no way I can backhand it hard enough to go all the way up and around. I'm just curious to know if my flipper is weak, or this is normal.

I am the same with mine. I think I made it all the way up the ramp twice in like 6 years backhanding it

Hey there, looking for the boat plastic that’s in the shooter lane. Used is just fine if you have an extra. Will PayPal or whatever is easiest. I have a US address (Armed Post Office / APO)
Thanks!!
