    Starboard bow cleat

    I lost my starboard bow cleat. I pulled the cushion out but can't past the speaker, I hope pulling the speaker will allow me to get to the cleat and install new nuts and washers. Anyone do this?It looks tight but I'd like to get the cleat back. I'm kinda pissed because the cleat gave way when we...

    Bunk lube

    So update, I pulled a good boner. My wife said the straps were not undone and thats why the trailer floated. We had another couple point it out as we were launching.

    Bunk lube

    According to my wife who was watching the boat as I backed it in, yes. I've never had this happen before. Probably dirty bunks that others have mentioned.

    Bunk lube

    My boat goes in once a season and come out once. I've never lubed the bunks in 10yrs but thinking of maybe doing it this time. My boat sits on the trailer in a heated building for almost 9 months so I think it gets a little sticky. We backed the boat in today and maybe too far and the trailer...

    How long do you stay on the water a day?

    It depends on whether you live on the lake or not. We are on the lake and spend about 2hrs just cruising a 2,300 acre lake. We don't have young kids. It depends on the day. Sometimes the wife and I just sit in the boat and have coffee and enjoy the day.

    Brand New Boat - What to do?

    I got the veevee guide vanes for the trailer, I think thats the name. Helps a lot getting the boat on and off the trailer. You might want to make a checklist on your phone for things to do before you drop it in the water, ie, make sure the stern drain plug is in. :D Check the oil. If you are...

    EDIT: What did you get for Christmas : What's on your 2024 Christmas Wish list?

    Snow. I'm in north WI and no snow so far. Bought two sleds last year I haven't ridden yet. So far, crappy winter.

    Did anyone else know Yamaha made bicycles?

    I know they made pianos and guitars.

    God so true. I saw so many young enlisted get so deep in debt. 2 kids and they were only 20. And the car or bike they had to have.

    Blowback through cleanout plug

    I'm getting some water on top of one plug when I try to reverse out of my lift. I'm thinking the plug seal is bad. Boat is a 2013.

    Thinking about going solo for 1st time

    Wear a life jacket and hook the engine cutoff lanyard to you. I've gone a few times by myself in my lake with no issues but life vest and lanyard are a must. Get one of these. Helps a lot with my wife trying to hook the dock and then we can pull the boat close and use the stern rope to tie in...
