    CA CARB boat my max is 51 when it was just me on board. I had 4 adults and 2 kids last week and 43 was the max. Then with 2 adults and 2 kids a couple days later got 46. My elevation is 320ft. Top RPM 7400-7500 I think

    thankful for the saftey of jetboats

    that is crazy my grandpa's old boat was 180hp and couldn't pull a 4 person tube. Also a quick search of O'Brien Super Screamer shows that is only a two person tube so lots of stupidity going on here. Poor kids.

    Unsecured property tax bill- how to beat it <California tax>

    Yeah not looking forward to that part about moving back. Oregon is nice and cheaper but the constant rain and gloom is getting to me. June 8th, I should be able to be boating right now not 65 degrees and showers

    I need a CPO / lightly used SUV to tow with, recommendations?

    I would go for an Expedition but only if I could get the ecoboost. Also the 22" wheels might reduce the towing capacity

    new AR195 with questions

    Did you check the clean out port? Maybe something was limiting your RPM. As for the tube rope we had to buy two two-piece tube ropes that come in a 50+10 config so now we are at 50+10+10 and have a 50ft segment that is brand new sitting in storage.

    suggestions for 7 year old tubing

    This is the one I picked up at the beginning of the season at Costco. It is a huge hit with my family. Even grandma rode. My 5 year old started going by himself and I was towing him at 15 and he gave the faster thumbs up. Everyone feels really safe in this tube. The lift assist base means no...

    Rear wet storage door latch broken

    2015 242LS Started out that I would have to try a few times to get it to latch then last time out some plastic piece snapped and this whole spring assembly popped out. Is there a replacement latch or do I have to buy a whole new seat back door?

    Hello from Oregon

    That lake looks nice but I'm surprised it was packed in May! I have only been out on Fern Ridge but Green Peter is on my list. But I'm not in any hurry to go there if it's always crowded. I've been spoiled at Fern Ridge I guess.

    Boating around L.A.

    LA is lacking in lakes. Castaic Lake north of LA near Santa Clarita is the closest I know of. Lake Arrowhead is out to the east. Oakland area is better for boating in my opinion. I used to live in Alameda which shares a waterway with Oakland. San Francisco Bay is salty you'll need to flush...

    What to check next <trailer lights not working>

    Was planning on my first trip to the lake for the year but my lights are messed up. First thing noticed was the reverse lockout was not disengaging. I cleaned off all the contacts as best to could. Running lights work. At some point while cleaning the contacts the left turn signal started...
