    Too much oil

    I did my yearly maintenance last week and this year I put too much oil. I took it out this weekend and noticed that didn't want to rev pass 6000 rpms.

    Oil change on wet slip, in water.

    Has anyone ever changed the oil on the wet slip while the boat was in the water? Just wondering how level it would be and if I can pump all the oil out while it's rocking a little. Any issues with doing this way? I figure it's already on water so I can warm it up and not have to take it in and out.

I'm having trouble finding much information for the oil change online, I'm always referred to the service manual (that I don't want to waste the money on). What is the model number for the Yamaha...

    Hello, first of all I want to apologize for my ignorance. My question is: the dip stick to measure the oil has two little holes, where does the oil have to be? Bottom hole? Middle of the holes? Top hole?
