It is manufactured in New Zealand by Southern Pacific Inflatables is 8' long and rated for up...
I'm looking at a 40hp Honda tiller model motor tomorrow morning that is supposed to be a 2006 model. How do I read the serial number to confirm this?
Thanks in advance :)
Ok
I took the boat out for it's first trip of the season and found that the bunks are in need of repair. Currently the bunks are 2X6 wood with your typical carpet. I have access to some 1 1/2"X 5" aluminum tube that I think would work nicely. I don't know if the lack of flex (as compared to...
Can anyone tell me what the manufacturers max WOT RPM for a 1989 50 horse Evinrude OB is?

Ok, I have a 1991, 90hp 2 stroke Merc with an intermittant alarm issue.
The alarm will come on as a very weak/sick sounding beep as if there was a short to ground issue. I currently have the oil level switch disconnected (has been for years since the switch died) :rolleyes:
The alarm will work...
The most important thing a new boater needs is to learn the rules of the road. I was forced out of the channel on Friday night by a boater that had no clue of where to be in the channel. The best investment any new boater can make is to buy a copy of boater Chapman's Piloting and Seamanship...
After many hours and more than a few $$$$ the rebuild of the helm on my 1991 Fisher SV18-GT is finally finished!!!
The original helm was woodgrain coloured plastic and not the most pleasing to look at. I decided that a new Teleflex NFB rotary helm would be installed along with new wiring and...
I'm looking for a source of solid stainless finishing washers.
I don't want the stamped ones as they will cut the vinyl that I'm covering my new helm trim panel with. The ones I'm looking for are flat on the backside and countersunk on the face.
The only solid finishing washers I have found so...
I need an online dealer!!
I am in need of a new oil tank for my '91 90hp outboard and will not purchase through my local Merc dealer as they gouge big time. They wanted $65 for a temperature sender!! :eek:
They are 1 of only 2 dealers in the Territory and guess they think they can get away with...
I am looking for the type of stone deflector that mounts to the trailer is wedge shaped and made of some kind of material that has small holes in it to reduce drag. I have been trying to find info on the web but all my searches come up empty. :(

To the admin team.
It's time for you to upgrade your server as it seems severely overworked. :(
I have been getting a lot of database errors and "sorry the server is too busy" lately, as well as very poor performance (i.e. page load times).
Time to run out to the server store and pick up a new...
I have a 1991 Fisher SV-18GT Bass/Walleye boat with a 90 HP Merc OB.
When I'm trolling the vibration of the motor spins the steering wheel and turns the boat when I let go of the wheel to set my down riggers/planer boards etc.
Will one of the Teleflex No Feed Back units stop this from happening...
