    Selling my 1979 22V5 Mariner. What to ask for?

    Guys I'm parting out my V5 Mariner. It's an unbelievable Great Lakes boat but I can't cast muskies out of the front of this thing. I thought it was going to be a lot lower to the water in the front. It is what it is. Some one is going to get an amazing deal. Right now it is in shrink wrap so...

    It says a 150 hp blackmax 1500 on the cover. What year? What kind of rep do these things have? Haven't put it in the water yet but it fires right up and idles nice with even compression. I bought with the intent of selling it but if it's servicable I'd be crazy not to try it. It's on a 79...

    Looking at a 236 Crestliner Sabre with a 2001 225 FICHT

    I like the boat. I like the trailer. I like the 9.9 kicker. For the $6000 the price is right. The big outboard makes me nervous about the purchase. I was originally looking at islanders and sabres with 4.3 chevys but I checked out this boat yesterday and I like it. The Evinrude fired right...

    2004 F75 Yamaha not charging consistently

    Hi all! Long time reader, first time poster. Anyways, my outboard charges "good" about 20% of the time this year. Charged great when I put it up in the fall. Sometimes itll charge great after a high speed run but sometimes not so much. Ive only made short fishing trips and I always charge...
