    engine stop leak?

    I have an '86 Cruisers with a 350 Mercruiser and Alpha One drive that has developed a small oil leak. Is it OK to use some Stop Leak to try and fix this in a marine engine? Is there a similar product that might work better? Thanks.

    I put the boat in the water for the first time this season today after purchasing it used last fall. On the muffs before going out, when putting it in gear the prop turned "a little" in fwd and reverse, when I put in gear on the water.....nothin. Engine ran fine but it just didn't feel like it...

    starting problem

    OK, I bought a boat late last fall on ebay and it has a 5.7L mercruiser in it. I winterized it right after purchase and now am just getting a chance to use it and I can't get it started. It is an '86 and probably hasn't run since last August or so, but the previous owner assured me that it...

    hull cleaning

    I just bought a used fiberglass hull boat and it has some white residue caked on the bottom of the hull. It appears to scratch off with your fingernail and has a shine beneath. What would be a good product to use to clean this stuff off? I think the boat was primarily used and moored in Lake...
