    1984 9.8 Mercury

    Only other Merc i've ever owned was a Black Max 150 just for a short time. Grew up with a 6 and a 15 Evinrude so this is going to be fun. I know I'll need an impeller other than that hoping for the best. Took me a few minutes to figure out how to pop the cowl but looks pretty clean in there...

    running trouble after a cooling off period.

    Morning folks. Couple questions and a bit of backstory. Try not to be bored reading this novel… Have had some trouble with the Carver not running well after we make our initial run (cove or lunch / fuel) usually sitting for an hour or so. The initial run is always flawless, usually 5 to 8...

    1983 75 hp Rude prop concern (new prop)

    Just double checked to make sure I ordered the correct prop and I did - even went with a OEM. Got it on and there is a slight rub when turning - just enough resistance to not allow a full spin if I just flicked it. Appears to be rubbing the motor where they join. Put the old back on and no...

    Bonaroo 2015

    one mile from my house. Our little 15,000 person town has usually around 85,000 visitors for a long weekend. Thankfully we live in a non linear roadway to there so we don't see the traffic if we stay home (and stock up on everything by tuesday). I took the old highway home from the airport today.

    1963 Lone Star Medallion all 16' of fun

    Calling it a 'refresh' rather than a 'restoration' because (at the moment) I'm not going to do to the level as you guys; I'm just after a workable little fun boat. Some last minute reading on 64osby's scrap thread and a quick last minute call to jbcurt and I felt like it was worth a shot to...
