    No Power: Four Winns Horizon 200

    Found the issue! But not sure what it is. The little red button with a “60” written on it at the bottom right of the starter solenoid in this picture. The box is back to working but I’m worried about why this tripped in the first place. Any ideas? Or any idea what this breaker is for?

    No Power: Four Winns Horizon 200

    Thank you sir. I was suspecting that as well. However, my trim motor works, which is also fed by the battery switch. So that tells me my batteries and main switch are good. I’m thinking like you said a loose connecting but somewhere after the main battery shut off switch and before the dash?

    No Power: Four Winns Horizon 200

    Hi All, after a few hours of boating yesterday, I shut off my boat on the water. Sat for about an hour. Only to realize the whole boat was dead after trying to turn it back on. No power to any of my dash components. Ignition was dead but my bilge pump, depth finder, horn, and other accessories...

    Battery on I/O

    So i have a 1996 Four Winns Horizon 200 with an I/O and dual battery set up. The batteries are inside under a cover that lifts up. However, the cover is not really sealed. It locks into place with two suction type rubber fittings. When the kids come in from the back of the boat dripping wet, the...

    Jacking Trailer

    I tried jacking just one side today and the entire trailer started going up. The tongue was in the air and the other side was going up. What was I doing wrong?

    Jacking Trailer

    Great question. I live in southeast PA where marine mechanics are booked 4-5 weeks out and automotive mechanics won’t touch anything boat or trailer related. Sucks

    Jacking Trailer

    interesting! I’ve read to never Jack the axle because it can bend the axle and stress the leaf springs. Is any of that true? Because that’s how I’ve always jacked my cars and I’d prefer doing it that way. Quick question on the frame jacking - can I Jack from the rear horizontal frame piece...

    Jacking Trailer

    Hi All, I have a 1996 Four Winns 200 horizon on the original Four Winns boat trailer. Boat is about 3700lb with motor. It's a tandem axle trailer. I need to jack the trailer (with boat on it) to take all 4 wheels to the shop for new tires. I'm wondering, are there any points on the trailer...

    New Tires

    I’m being told by my shop that the radials have a lower weight rating. And the load range D radials are only 1250lb. The load range C bias-ply are 1760lb. What do you guys think? Is that true? If that’s true then I think I’m limited to bias play only? It doesn’t seem right because the tires on...

    New Tires

    Thank you. What do you mean by “or run less pressure” ? It seems like the higher the weight rating, the more pressure the tire needs. Also, just to make sure my tire shop is giving me the right weight tire, what is the weight rating for a load range D? I can’t find a consistent set of answers...
