    Maximum transom outboard weight for a 1994 14' Lund Laker?

    I know its maximum hp is 35, but thats probably for an older 2 stroke. I need to get a new motor and 4 strokes are heavier. I don't know how much weight the transom can handle.

    Tension adjustment for 1991 15 hp Mariner tiller steer?

    Looking to adjust the tension on this older motor but don't have the owners manual and am not that familiar with it. It steers a little too loose.

    Shrinkwrap or boat cover (and polytarp)?

    My 16 footer has a carpeted floor. I've heard shrinkwrap holds moisture even with vents and Damprid. I have a new cover (Platinum 1200 from Coveranything that is supposed to be canvass and polyester). I'm debating on shrinkwrap or the new cover with a poly tarp over it. The boats in my yard...

    Thanks but the motors not part of the question. It will be in a heated environment.

    Opinions on winter storage?

    This is probably a dumb question, but I'm looking for opinions. - I put my motors in a warm indoors environment, so thats not the issue. The boat, also, has always been stored indoors. This year I have a brand new cover that fits tight and repels rain/snow well. I'm debating on if I should...

    Value of Yamaha 25 hp outboard?

    I'm only trying to see how much I would get for the motor if I sold it separately from the boat and then sold the boat without the motor. The motor runs great. I've had Mercuries, a Mariner, a Johnson and an Evinrude and I can see why Yamahas are desired. The boat is an older 16' Lund Rebel...

    Value of Yamaha 25 hp outboard?

    I have a 1990 25 hp Yamaha Precision Blend electric start outboard in really good shape on my 16' Lund Rebel. I'm wondering what the approximate value is on this motor if I decided to sell it. I can't find any for sale and Nada values these days where I live seem real low for boats and motors...

    Trolling motor for this 16 footer?

    I have a used 16' Lund Rebel I recently bought and am thinking about a transom electric trolling motor for it. The boat listed weight is about 500 lbs. I'm thinking maybe a Minn Kota Edura c2 and then maybe down the road adding a Nav Pro. So I'm trying to deterermine: Will 40 lb thrust be...

    Options for towing boat w a non tilt/trim small outboard (25 hp)?

    Thanks. Originally I eye balled the situation, but now that I took a measurement and extended the transom saver, it looks like it is just going to work. So, its been a while since I've used it; I assume once its in place you lock the motor ?
