Ok...I give up. I know there must be a very simple and seemingly but not quite idiot proof way of doing this....but I'm stumped. I have a '90 Marlin. there is a triangular shaped vent window on each side of the helm. They are in the forward sections toward the front windshield. There is a...

oops Sorry about. Melissa at Woody Wax told me that if there is a lot of corrosion/pitting on the pipe work (like mine has) coat the pipe with Woody Wax and leave it on for a week. Then go back and hit it with Woody Wax and a bronze wool pad. She said you can/should repeat this as often as...

Allstate must have won (or settled). Its just like car insurance. At least in NY if you pay a deductible and have your car repaired (or total loss payment) under your collision coverage your insurance company has the right to go after the other party. If the are successful (outright or...

Woody Wax Customer Service Thanks for the recommendation. Turns out I have some on the big boat. I emailed the company to ask if its still good after being on a obat year round in the Northeast. The company's response was incredible! I got a call (not an email) from Melissa at Woody Wax...

I'd call the factory. They'll answer your question and probablly give you some hints and suggestions that you never considered.

Was there any old MTB gas in the tank? I've heard that when ethanol and MTB mix they form a gell

Does anyone have a good "wax" or alternative for the non-skid walkway and deck? I hate to leave them unprotected but I don't want to turn the deck into a skating ring either. Thanks

Thanks Mega I've used Flitz in the past. Not overly impressed. Do you know if it works better with their polishing ball?

Looks like you guys are the right group to ask this question. I've recently became the owner of a 1990 Marlin. The boat was on land for a few years and the previous owner wasn't as meticulous as yourselves. The fiberglass is no problem....a fast waxh and a coat of cleaner wax and she looks...

Also keep in mind what are you going to run with the motor on and what with it off. You'll likely only use the radar while running (if drifting in fog you may leave it on in "guard" mode), the VHF, fishfinder and chartplotter on the other hand are (at least on my boat) always on, but generally...

Thanks guys. This is my first outboard powered boat. I'm used to straight inboards so all of this (oil tanks, flushing, etc) is new. One less thing to do at the end of the day...I'm not going to complain

New owner of a 1990 Marlin with twin Yamaha 250's here and I'm stumped. I have the standard "ear muffs" to flush to motor with fresh water, I've watched the yard run the motors on land using them, I know how to use them and know that its considered standard if not mandatory practice to flush...

Contact the company that made the rod holders...probably Lee's...shouldn't be a problem to get new ones

Bad fuel pump maybe?

thanks again. Another dumb questions (and this one is trust me). I've never had a boat with a livewell. I assume all I have to do is open the seacock and hit the switch for the pump, right?

Thanks I appreciate the feedback. Don't kill yourself getting pics. If you happen to have the hatch open for service and can snap a few perfect. No rush. Good luck with the storm.

Thanks for the feedback. 303's website has a version of the product that they claim you can use as a wax substitute. Always looking for a way to make life easier, but I'm also skeptical of anything the says its "wipe on wipe off"

thanks. I appreciate the advice

Just curious but has anyone used this stuff instead of traditional wax on their fiberglass? Thanks

Ghost I can't help you out but was wondering if you could answer a few questions for me regarding gensets on older Marlins. I just picked up a '90 marlin and am thinking about adding a genny. How cramped and difficult is it to work on and maintain the genny? How about when you have to...
