    Prop part number question

    I am trying to find a replacement prop for a 1974 Mercury 650. When I search on here with my part number, 48-73134A4, it also comes up with part number 48-73134A40. Are these interchangeable? It seems all I can find anywhere are the 2nd one.

    1974 Mercury 650 3 cylinder no water out of tell tale

    Hi, I have a Mercury 650 that I just recently replaced the impeller on, because it had been sitting for 5+ years. I got it replaced, got everything put back together on it, and there is no water coming out of the tell tale. I know I got the water tube in right when putting it back together...

    Question about Breaker systems

    I have a 16 foot v bottom aluminum boat. I have done a lot of other work with it, but the wiring is something that I plan to do this spring. As of this moment, my boat has a 4 gang switch box connected to a fuse block (I'm not even sure I have the lingo right). I have lights, nav lights, depth...

    question about building a raised back deck.

    Re: question about building a raised back deck. I thought I attached it in my first reply, but I guess it didn't work, I'll try to edit that. I don't have any pictures of the boat entirely, I just have a picture of the back. This is a picture of the exact same boat, with the exact same specs...

    question about building a raised back deck.

    Re: question about building a raised back deck. Here is a little drawing I did on MS paint. If it doesn't show well in the picture, the orange is the proposed project. Red is the gas can, and green is the battery. They both sit under the splashwell right now.

    question about building a raised back deck.

    Re: question about building a raised back deck. My boat is a 1994 Sea Nymph FM161. Unfortunately, due to the snow and bitter cold up here in the north, I only have one picture of it from the summer. To answer other questions, what I wanted to do, was basically run it flat with the top of the...

    question about building a raised back deck.

    I am wanting to build a raised deck on the back of my 16 foot boat. The gas tank for the boat is a 6 gallon portable tank. Can that be covered by the back deck I plan on building? Or would that cause gas fumes to build up under the deck?

    Minn Kota Powerdrive 50 intermitten running.

    Hi guys, Sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find anything. I have a 2002 model Minn Kota PD 50 that was given to me last year (serial # MKAC2372724). My buddy upgraded to a 24v system for his boat, so he gave me this one. I installed on my boat, and it worked on dry...

    1974 Mercury 650 starting problems

    Hi, I have a 1974 Mercury 650 3 Cylinder that won't roll over. The previous owner had it going, but left the cover off the boat all the time, and the battery cables got bad and he tried to start it and the wires arced. Ever since then it hasn't rolled over, so he gave it to me and I put a...
