    1998 Angler 220B - Floor repair, fuel hatch recore, rewire, and other projects...

    Kinda stinks to have to do this much to a 1998 boat, but such is life, and the project is well under way. I'm cross-posting this from the classicmako.com forum.. hoping to get some more feedback on my non-Mako here. They have tons of great projects over there and learned quite a bit when I had...

    Steering arm replacement - V6 Mid 80's Yamaha..

    While working on the lower unit I would like to clean up / fix up a few things that are concerning me. Primary on the list of concerns is the steering arm. I know the powerhead must be removed, and I know the 6 midsection to powerhead bolts are the worst. I have managed to remove 5 out of 6...

If you take the cable off, it will pop...

    Help with Yamaha identification: 175AETO

    Hi everyone, I recently purchased a 20' Mako with a Yamaha 175AETO (at least that's what it says on the bracket tag) with a serial number starting with 6G5. The motor cowling appears to be off of a 200, but based on the model tag it's obviously a 175 I imagine. Motor runs fine, shift shaft...
