    Garden hose to rinse the boat and trailer

    I have the flex Zilla air hoses, they work wonderfully. I'm leaning to the water hose this spring as I think it'll be a good one.

    Garden hose to rinse the boat and trailer

    Depends on where your outdoor faucet is. You will fond 25’ a bit short When walking around the boat. 12’ boat, loop around the boat and it’s to short. 50’ will get you there, or 2-25’ hoses. I had a collapsable hose, junk. When you press the nozzle it wanted to shrink right down. I’m on city...

    Boat wiring question

    You could install a negative buss bar in the area, then install the negatives to that. It makes for a cleaner install and easier to service. Abyc don allow more than 3 wires on ant terminal anyway.

    Show is a pic of the taken apart mess you got going on. Chokes aren’t to awful hard to set up, just a tad of fine tuning sometimes depending on the weather in your area.

    Electric panel toilet switch

    The macarater either dumps overboard, witch is illegal in most areas, or dumps/transfers the waste to a second tank onboard.

    Don’t rethread it. Get a new one. The last place you don’t need a fuel leak

    Paper maps required?

    It would be smart. If you have any issues electrically, the paper maps may save your life.

    Electric panel toilet switch

    Shower sumps : Some have a switch, some don't. I'm thinking its just for the head itself to pump the water from the lake. Unless it's a manual pump set up.

    Electric panel toilet switch

    Sure, leave it on when you are there. Listen for the pump. If it kicks in once in a while when nobody is using it, you have a leak someplace. If it doesn't it's good. Still leave it off when not at the boat.

    Well there you have it. If you pull the cap when running it'll do that. stop motor. Let sit for a bit. Remove stick, wipe and check. Problem solved.

    Dual Battery ... Wiring fail or I just don't understand?

    I just make sure they are charged fully in the fall then unhook the grounds and leave them in the boat. In the spring I hook them up and start the boat up. Usually get 5-6 years before replacement, but when they get that old, they still work, I just replace them for the reason they are getting...

    Replacing shift cable. What are these parts for?

    Do not tighten the set screw to tight! Just snug it up and back it off a real tiny bit. If too loose, shifting will be impossible to adjust, to tight and the cable will bind.

    I've used the new repair deal on a few, they make them for alphas also. You cut out the face of the upper ring. To me it's much easier and access is good. It comes with everything shown...
