    Trim Tabs

    I've enjoyed reading this post. I was one of the first, if not THE first to install the Bennett "Sport" tabs on the Yamaha AR230 back after the model was first introduced. The folks at Bennett were great to work with and I got a break on the price for giving a review on their site. I did a...

    1st day out and boat is broken

    The last time I had a leak it was entirely my fault. I hit a big rock, what can I say...it happens. I fixed the hole and the boat is dry as a bone. Life goes on. Another reason to clean your boat by hand often and check from stem to stern. :cool:

    Relieved that I have the 177 HP engine

    Just register it as Republican and you get back the lost hp. But you get a bad haircut in the process. :p

    Any ideas??? <Bimini base pulling out>

    One quick fix is to slap some two part epoxy on a strip of 1/4" Starboard from underneath and just use a longer fastener. ;)

    Can music save your mortal soul?

    Hey gang, just got back from a long weekend on the river.... Guess what? The effing stereo went south on me!! Unbelievable....we hit a wake so hard, ( who the eff was driving?) it knocked something loose, I messed with it for a while and found the culprit, but it didn't last too long. I'll have...

    Trying to reduce the engine noise

    I went looking for my old post on the "other" site when I did the sound deadening material install back in the day and couldn't find it....hmm To the degree that I installed the material it worked well. Some have gone over and beyond with even better results. I'm sure that I could reduce the...

    Can music save your mortal soul?

    Music. For some it's at the top of the list of things we need on the boat. Others, meh, not so much. ( I don't know many at this end of the spectrum unless they are fishing) How many times have you launched and thought to yourself...self, I wish I had taken the time to put together a few new...

    Towed in a stranded boat yesterday

    Good job:thumbsup: Always be aware of your boats limits though. Sometimes, if it were a larger, heavier vessel, the best thing to do is call for help and stay with the vessel in distress. Don't put yourself in danger unnecessarily. I've seen bad situations go to worse in a heartbeat. :eek:
