    Boating on Lake Michigan - Milwaukee area

    On Thursday my son and I took a ride from Milwaukee up to Port Washington. Conditions were fantastic. If the big lake ever got any warmer, I almost wouldn’t go anywhere else..

    2014 Yamaha AR192 does not turn over

    Check the safety kill switch by the throttle. Was it starting at all this season and just now won’t turn over? Or did you just hook up the battery(ies) and it hasn’t started at all? Its possible a ground wire or a positive cable might have been missed when re hooking up.

    Gulf Shores, AL trip 7/6-7/10

    I brought my boat down to gulf shores from Wisconsin about six years ago. We go down there every other summer or so, going back in August this year. We stay in a house on the beach with a pool. My boat only went in the water one day during the week that we were there. I’m glad I brought it and...

    Stain under body running down pump to keel bottom

    Looks like some normal water stains, tannin or something like that to me. Should come off with some Booyah hull cleaner or some toilet bowl cleaner no problem.

    That trip though the lock I still had my AR192, I don’t think my 242 would fit.

    Who's getting excited for the 2025 season?!?!

    There was definitely some cloudiness to the water the couple times I was on Mendota last year, can’t speak much about the other lakes last year as far as milfoil goes. Two summers ago we went through the lock from Mendota down to Waubesa and back, didn’t notice any milfoil problems on that trip.

    Post in thread 'Best Trailer Tongue Jack' Best Trailer Tongue Jack This is the one I went with for my 2018 Shorland’r. Had to make the mounting holes slightly larger, but works fantastic, and so much more stable than stock.
