    bimini top straps

    I replaced the straps on my Bimini a month or so ago and already the snap clip has broken. Walmart crap. Atwood brand. Who makes a good strap with good adjusters and clips?

    Aluminum Noise

    I think I read here at some point about noises from the motor mount (transom). Whenever I raise my OB fully tilted it kinda bangs and when I lower it the same thing. I checked the mountings and all seems fine. Is this normal? I figure it's just the aluminum flexing. But want to be sure. Thanks

    Pulled her out for some work ? on pumps for live well.

    I have Yankee Girl back in the driveway for some work to be done and I want to replace the bilge pump used for the live well. I looked here for a replacement but my discharge says 5/8 on the male end that connects to the hose. Will I need some sort of adapter or are there 5/8" discharge pumps. I...

    UPDATE! What to put on a transducer left in water?

    Does anyone have any ideas on what I can coat my transducer with to keep the crap off? I have my boat left at a slip and the bottom paint works great but my transducer is always covered with you know what. I know I can't paint it or can I? What can I put on it to keep it cleaner? I'm pulling...

    Clening a fuel tank

    After doing a search here and not finding what I want I will post a new thread on this. I have a 12 gallon tank that has some crap in it from age I guess. I have a fuel separator in line along with the normal Honda fuel filter. These seem to take care of the issue but I'd like to eliminate the...

    Some pics of the toon

    I finally took some pictures of the new toon. Some were taken with the ziplock bag on the camera while I was in the water so they are a bit cloudy.

    Adding a Sundeck

    My toon has a raised motor section, and the ends are lower. One side for fuel and the other for battery. I plan on adding two cabinets to raise the end sections and a sundeck to cover the whole thing. It will give me more storage at the same time. Any concerns? One concern I have is the added...

    For those who don't know I am a new pontoon owner. Not a new boatman but my first pontoon. She's a 1999 Godfrey with a 40hp Honda. Well after some maintenance cleanup and making ready we have been enjoying out new boat immensely. Adjustments to the carbs helped allot, a new water pump kit...

    5-30 or 10-30 Mobil 1

    Whats the consensus on running 5-30w or 10-30w Mobil 1 in a 1999 40hp Honda? I read that there is little difference between the two and running 10-30w in an older motor might be OK. My manual states 5-30w but the last owner was running 10-30w in it. Living in Florida where the gulf temp...

    Looking for a pontoon

    I figured I had better start my own thread as I kinda hijacked another one. Anyway. I am looking into a 18 Ft. Pontoon Boat made by Godfrey Marine and trailer made by Continental. Year unknown so far waiting a reply from the owner. He sent some pics and the boat looks really clean. Trailer...
