I just installed a Yamaha 8hp High Thrust on a 2008 Bayliner Discovery 210 cuddy.
I plan to use a small auxiliary tank instead of plumbing it into the main tank.
Does anyone have any recommendation on fuel tank size?
Thanks

My Garmin EchoMAP 50s I bought 1.5 years ago is suffering some sort of problem that is causing a high frequency ticking or buzzing sound. The sonar no longer consistently holds a lock on bottom and flashes the last known depth intermittently.
The transducer is an Airmar P66 Dual frequency. Does...
2007 5.0L Alpha 1 gen 2, carbureted. I am leaving my boat in the water year round this year in a covered slip.
I have recently installed a San Juan Engineering full closed cooling system (manifolds are cooled) running fresh Mercuiser brand anti-freeze.
I would like to have the boat set up so I...
2007 Alpha 1 Gen 2. I am trying to split the lower unit from the leg, in order to service the water pump impeller.
All 6 bolts removed (2 each side and 1 at each end). Shifter is in forward gear. Prop clicks and rotates right, but not left. The cases are splitting near the prop but not at the...
I just installed a San Juan enginering closed cooling system on my 5 L V8 2007 model. It is an alpha one G2 drive. The engine stays cool at about 165?F but the water coming out of the exhaust is hot to the touch and is steaming. Outside air temperature is about 55?F. Is this normal? When I used...
I am planning on doing some trolling for salmon with my 2008 Bayliner Discovery 210 and would like to find the smallest kicker possible to keep the weight down. I would be mounting it on the starboard side and there are already two batteries there.
A buddy bought a 9.9 Tohatsu last year for his...
2008 Bayliner Discovery 210, Alpha 1, 5.0 220hp
I have a situation where the boat is very slow out of the hole with the leg tucked in. It gets up to about 36 mph at WOT and then after about 1-2 min, will surge ahead and gain another 7 mph up to about 43. If I stop the boat and idle awhile it...
I just bought a 2008 Bayliner Discovery 210 today (5.0L Alpha 1 gen 2), and when I got it home and was checking systems and testing stuff in the driveway, I noticed the tilt trim started cutting out. At least that's the best way I can describe it. The unit lowered and raised fine before. This...
I removed the lower unit to have the skeg welded and when I reinstalled the lower, the shift linkage seems to rattle.
- It only does it in neutral.
- When I put it into either forward or reverse it stops rattling, and also when I just start to put it into reverse but it's not quite engaged.

Does a Honda BF30 have a shear pin in the prop hub?
I am planning a trip with my dad this month and we will be running some rivers. I have a Mac's River Runner installed but I do not know this river (Upper Columbia) at all and there is a risk of hitting rocks or gravel.
I don't have the boat...
I have a Lund Laker 14 foot with a side console and remote controls. I have a CMC PT-35 Tilt and trim unit installed.
1) Performance issue you are trying to correct.
The boat is still very sluggish out of the hole, and seems to rev a little high for my liking.
2) Current prop manufacturer...
I have a new to me 1996 BF30 on a 14 foot Lund Laker side console.
The thing runs great, but the tach won't go above approx 1200 rpm. The light comes on and it drops back to zero when the motor is off.
The boat also seems a little sluggish to get up on plane and the top speed is only about 20...
I bought a 1996 Honda 30hp mounted on a 14 foot Lund with full controls but no power tilt/trim. I plan to let my 75 year old Dad use this boat, and I want to set it up with power tilt to save him having to run to the back to tilt.
I see a power tilt kit on eBay for almost $900. Has anyone ever...

Lund Laker 14
Here's mine, just picked it up yesterday. Was too good of a deal to pass up.
1996 Lund Laker 14 side console with a Honda 30 on a galvanized EZ Loader trailer. Super low hours; was purchased brand new by an elderly man who just didn't use it much.
It's in pretty...
I have an opportunity for a good price on a decent older welded aluminum Hewes with a good running 115 Merc Jet.
Will this lower fit a later outboard? I was thinking of buying the boat/motor and repowering later. Would like to keep a jet on it though.
