    Putting on 08' Merc on my boat myself... thoughts/things I should know/watch for?

    Hey guys... I'm going to put a 2008 Mercury 2 stroke 50hp on my boat replacing the current 9.9 thats currently on it... anything I need to know or watch for?? I have the two boats they're installed on side by side in my garage. I know I need to move the controls over from each boat as well...

    Pick my boat-Crown 202, Monterey 200, Regal 2000, Four Winns 200

    Ok guys... planning to hit the road within the coming week to pick up our next boat. My needs are typical water sports, family of 5 with capability to seat 7-8ish comfortably, SS prop, possibly add waketower down the road... one of my biggest concerns is resale. If we find ourselves wanting to...

    04' Rinker Captiva RX1 212/Four Winns/other?? thoughts/quality/resale? pics attached

    Hi guys... looked through the archives for this boat as well... curious what the consensus is on this boat? It's an 04 212 RX1 model, 5.0GXI/SX Volvo, wakeboard model with wakeboard tower, swim platform, NO perfect pass (option that yr-not standard as I originally thought), tandem trailer... 350...

    Sea Ray 200/220 Select thoughts/anyone here have one?

    Thinking about picking up one of these... price is a bit high right now IMO but may put in an offer on a couple (two different boats/two locations). Both are 2004... one has wake tower but both are virtually the same boats other than that.... 5.0 MPI & Bravo III. Will test drive of course first...

    Four Winns H200, Sea Ray 200 Select, Crownline 21cls & 216ls

    Well... I'm on the search guys. My H220 will be gone later today. I'd like to find something before winter sets in so we can run/test it. My kids have Friday off... so we may make a run to look at a couple. It's incredible to see a boat in the poor condition some of these boats are in that are...

    Looking at a 06' Crownline 21 Classic... newbie to CL... thoughts ?

    Never owned a Crownline but know the solid reputation and have a buddy with a 23 footer. We just sold our 03' Four Winns 220 that we loved... it had a 5.7 GI VP and Duoprop... the thing was a rocket out of the water. ;) I'm assuming the 21' Classic will be somewhat the same with the 5.0 MPI due...

    Turbo Prop I or Cabellas Performance Prop?

    Love all the "stuff" I've already read through here.... :) I've had Turbo Props on previous boats and they seemed to really perform well. Cabelas has a "Cabelas Performance" prop and I'm curious if these are any better or worse... I'll probably go with the Turbo unless I'm convinced otherwise...
