    I need to buy a new sea water pump impeller and would appreciate some help with the correct part number. I have an inboard MerCruiser Black Scorpion 350. I downloaded Service Manual #24 (not even sure that's the right one since it says nothing about Black Scorpion), but it's silent on the...

    Non hard-core wakeboard boat for less than $15k

    Hey all. I know there's probably some newb like me asking this question, but please give me some advice on buying a used boat. I have a wife and 2 kids, so it will mainly be us. Mostly it will be for tubing, and I must learn to wakeboard! Will also be used for fishing from time to time, but...
