    Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada I was over your way on Friday visiting the Hoover Dam. This south GA boy was nearly drooling wanting to jump in the cool blue-green water of Lake Meade! Next trip a boat rental is definitely in the plans. Y'all have a paradise out there!

    Bimini question

    I have a 1995 Maxum 1800XR. When I bought it used, it didn't come with the bimini. In trying to find a replacement, all the pictures I see only show one metal support coming up from the sides of the boat. The original bimini brackets are still installed on my boat (not the frames, just the...

    Lower unit oil change question

    Hey fellas. I'm going to attempt a lower unit oil change when I get home from work, but my problem is this: My Seloc manual is at home, I'm at the office. I need to know what type of oil and if there are any washers/seals I need to replace before I put the screws back in. If so, I'd like to...

    Boat muff placement

    Your help is appreciated. I have a 1995 Force 120HP. Each time I go to put the muffs on, I forget which side of the motor the water hose needs to be on. I've screwed up in the past by arranging the muffs where the water hose input is on the wrong side of the motor from the water pump...

    Need ideas about building a small floating platform

    Here are my credentials

    So it turns out I'm not the only boater who has a SHT to his credit. Here's my story... A few years ago a buddy and I went down to my recently deceased grandfather's place at Lake Seminole in southwest GA.

We'd taken the boat out a couple of times in the past month but hadn't actually been IN the water until this Saturday. Saturday provided sunshine and near 90 temps, so we decided it'd be a...

    I've cleaned a the carbueretor a few times on my 9.8 Merc and replaced the foot oil a time or 2, but that's the extent of my outboard repair knowledge, so be gentle with your technical talk. :D Took my 18' bowrider with a 1995 Force 120 out Saturday for a cruise around the lake. Started out...
