    Trolling Motor Questions

    I am planning on buying a new electric trolling motor. I have a 17.5 ft Bayliner Capri Mercruiser 3.0 4cyl. I have no idea where to start. Bow Mount? Transom Mount? Would an electric motor work on my boat? What size? I'm thinking the transom mount because you have to be nearby to steer it...

    Running Rich??

    My boat had been running rich the second year I ran it. Black smoke at startup, hard startups. So I adjusted the choke as my dealer advised me, and replaced the plugs with double platinums, and it ran a heck of a lot better last year, but when I took it up to this lake which is higher in elev...

    Prop Selection??

    Hi, I'm new here and could use some advice on selecting a new prop. I damaged my stock 17p last year which isn't bad, I plan to refurbish it to have an extra, but the WOT rpms are about 5200 as this boat's spec is 4500-4800. I'm planning on a 19p. Now I was thinking about a SS balistic. Is...
