    Hey gang, been reading around the forum and haven't found a great solution. I have a 2020 212x and have loved it, except the clean out ports. My god do they suck. Essentially after taking them out a few times to clear seaweed or when I get an error, they are very very very hard to get back in...

    Nuts! First time crap jammed in jet what to expect.

    I went Boating in the Hudson river this weekend, well there is tons of crap in there. So a few times I thought there was something in my motors. I did the back up trick, all was ok. Then on my way back 60 miles to go at 7:00pm my starboard motor starter to shake and cavatate. There is no...

    Quick Question - Clean Out Ports

    How much water should I expect to have in my clean out ports after being on the water? My last boat had no water in the ports but then again when I bought that boat they were fused in and couldn't be removed. On my new boat every time I have taken it out when I go to remove the clean out plugs I...
