    Wires on ignition switch are damaged , loose, not connected to correct terminals, or the switch went bad internally. At the other end, wire not connected, or bad ground connection.

    Help! Water between hull and deck??

    i believe this boat is all welded, floor too, so access is going to mean cutting it open. Drilling a few holes and probing the foam would make more sense, Can't imagine how that much water would have gotten in there. That hull is rated for 60 hp, right? And your 40 jet only puts out 30 on a...

    New prop still ventilating

    This makes no sense. Why would you raise it? You need to lower the motor. What was your original prop? Why did you replace it?

    No experience with the 402 but if its feasible, and thats what you want, why not? It was an option, and shouldn't be to difficult.

    USB charger

    If the adaptor would end up in the lake, would the charging cord also? Or the phone? Why would you ever need to remove the usb adaptor from the port? Just asking, cause I don't get it. Make sure you are getting 2.4, or 3 amps or more, per port, or you won't be doing much charging. The built...

    Moller and other compliant ventless portable tank

    Hmmmm, I wonder if loosening the cap a little when parking the boat, would prevent pressure build up, and thus keep the tank from leaking? I wonder. No I don't. I KNOW the answer. Just like I know if you disconnect the hose from the motor, the pressure in the tank will not force fuel into...

    Set up

    Looks like a nice fishing boat. Your dealer must have sold several of these by now and he should be able to recommend the best prop for your needs. He should have a lower pitch one that will give you quick planing and slow trolling speeds. Or a higher pitch one that will be a little slower to...
