Anyone have any experience with a Drive On dock (EZ Dock, Jet Dock, etc). I have a Zodiac YL470 which is 15' long by 7' wide. I need a drive on dock, but don't want the footprint to be any larger than the boat (very limited space in slip). I've considered PWC drive ons. Any ideas?
75 Evinrude E-tec outboard on my Zodiac RIB. While in the water, if I raise the outboard as far up as it will go, it is still partly in the water (Skeg and bottom half of prop/hub). Problem is, that the sacraficial anode is not submerged at this hight. The other alternative is to keep the...
2007 75 E-tec. Came with a Sierra Fuel/Water separator. Cant find the replacement locally, so i'm looking for a different brand (NAPA, Quicksilver, Whatever). Any suggestions? I know that it has to be able to flow properly i.e. proper micron rating in the media. The old one is 21 microns.
I'm restoring a 40 yr. old houseboat which has the original galvanized steel gasoline fuel tank. It's not leaking and has no external corrosion. Question is, what's the useful life of such a fuel tank? Should I replace it?

I'm wondering if it's acceptable to use both...
My 2006 75hp E-tec has always been rough between 1200-1800 RPM's. The dealer and another technician both have told me that this is normal part of the fuel mapping program. How's this sound?
I have water incurring into the V-drive of my Paragon trannie. Should be a simple fix (gasket). Question is, can I disconnect the cooling water temporarily? Also, What type fluid does the v-drive require?
My 1970 Chrysler 318 is missing the timing index. it does however have a mark on the flywheel which is visible through a hole in the bell housing. there is also some kind of pointer in the bell housing hole. Can I use this mark?
I have a small (34 foot / 8000lb) single engine houseboat on inland waterways. I would like to outfit her with an inflatable to use in the event the single engine fails. The inflatable would be in the 10' range. What is the horsepower needed to tow this houseboat at least out of the way of...
