    Maybe my turn for new boat time

    I can see that but for us with lake use only in Lake Tahoe, it's one of the easiest bow to see over of any boat I have ever owned. I never have to stand with our R5. I had a chance to buy my neighbor's 28' Cobalt but 9'9" beam and twin engines were a big no for me. It was perfect condition and...

    Look at the Cobalts. Unfortunately, hard to get since they sell out their allotment early in the year. https://cobaltboats.com/outboards/sc-series/

    2022 Super Bowl LVI

    I had a tennis court contractor give me a bid who also did work for Snoop in LA. He said that he went into a room with Snoop and his buddies at his home once and basically had a contact high while he was in the room. He pretty much does this all the time. What I think is hilarious is that this...

    73 350 not charging

    You can also do a 3 wire alternator. All you need to do is connect up an excite wire(from ignition), the main charge wire to the battery and the sense which you can just jumper over to the main charge wire. You probably already have the ignition wire going to your present system.

    WHAT DID I JUST BUY?

    https://www.nadaguides.com/Boats/1988/Bayliner-Marine-Corp Hope you got it really cheap. Bayliners of that vintage were pretty poorly made boats even when they were new. How do I know? I owned one. That along with an OMC Cobra...good luck.

    Olympics

    A "friend" of mine became a citizen of Israel so he could pay on last years Olympic baseball team. He can do that easily since his mom is Jewish. Before he did this, he had not stepped one foot inside Israel. Almost the entire team was US born. Ridiculous if you ask me.

    Transporting a 20' boat on a flatbed.

    Send that picture to an Alumacraft dealer and ask them. Typically, you want the bunks under where the stringers are.

    New DP-M outdrive install: need advice

    So...you have installed a Volvo drive before? Don't say they are exactly like the OMC because they aren't. When you get the drive inserted and the drive shaft is just short of the coupler, you can not see the u-joints.
