    1.8L Ribbon Delete, part numbers and information listed.

    I took a look at the throttle intake and noticed 2 sets of bolts. 4 of them where hex with a textured round head, the others were actual bolts with red loctite. From the Riva install pic, the arrestor is behind the 4 hex tool bolts? I could not even get any of those to budge. Should I use a...

    Those of you that bought year old but new boat

    Like I said, I got essentially the same for 55k with all those fees. And they towed it 700 miles. 6.75% in Ohio not included. Dealers invoices can vary slightly based on volume, but not 1000s.

    In general anything over 750 is considered excellent credit. Mine is more than that, but don't know what was technically required.

    Bottom Paint or No Bottom Paint

    I actually disagree that a power washer will take it off. After I moved from wet to lift last year, I took my boat out and tried to power wash with my 3000 psi. Did next to nothing. Only toilet bowl cleaner worked. Thing I hate most is that its still around/under my bunks. Pretty sure I'll...

    Those of you that bought year old but new boat

    For whats its worth, I got my 2015 last January. I got it for 55k (no tax) out the door, 4 year YES, 2.99% for 5 years. Other than the basic dealer prep to get it running, they didnt throw anything in, but they towed it 700 miles to my house for free.

    2015 LTDS JL Audio Upgrade + Fishfinder Install

    Turns out there is only 1 set of RCAs so nothing crazy to do there. Got it all setup, all 8 in boat channels set at 80hz, 2 channel with low pass. That sound right? Is there a good rhym/reason for the input sens without using a minimeter? All I need to do is figure out this house switch. I...

    Free air for now. All that's left is this positive power. Can't figure out how to get this switch cover off.

    Brain Fart leads to Mistake

    Would anyone be able to confirm that this is it? Under model numbers it shows mine I believe. Going to call SL and this site to confirm tomorrow. http://www.easternmarine.com/shoreland-r-92-painted-trailer-drop-axle-7150903

    Brain Fart leads to Mistake

    Would anyone be able to help me find the part number for this axle? I thought it was 66363, but eastern marine says this is not a shorelandr part number. My trailer repair place is trying to order the axle from the company that makes them for SL, but there's an issue. Trying to do my own...

    2016 AR240 Cobra fins - Magnum AK w/ Fangs - install and first impressions, plus EZ locks refresher

    While I haven't used my new Magnum AK+Fangs in the water yet, I did want to comment on the install. Very well written instructions, use the web instructions, more clear and you can zoom if needed. Everything was really easy to follow and had no issues. Less than an hour, even with sending an...

    Man, I hope I don't need to insurance claim this, a brand new replacement axle is only $200 shipped. If they quote more than that, I'll just order and install my self.

    Boat and trailer are at a trailer shop right now, waiting to hear what the damage, pun sort of intended, is going to be.
