Welcome to the site. I have a 1984 204 center console Fisherman with a 2002, 150 hp Johnson. It was a project boat and I have done a lot with it, including replacing the fuel tank. Let me know if I can be of any help to you. I think you will find some very helpful suggestions on this site...

Rod, this is Jerry in Richmond. Relocating your batteries might help you a little. My battery is in the console , secured to the deck with a mounting bracket.

Last Friday while on a fishing trip a continuous, ear-piercing alarm came on shortly after being under way. The alarm is located very close to the ignition switch under my console. The alarm stayed on constantly when the motor was running. Everything was working properly; motor was not...

Finally!!! A Grady with scuppers above the water line. Great looking boats!

I am considering getting a membership through SeaTow. My local fishing grounds range from the mouth of the Potomac in the Chesapeake Bay to the mouth of the York River down to the CBBT and off Virginia Beach. How is the service in these areas? Anyone have experiences with SeaTow in these...

Fuel or oil injection? Thanks

What does the acronym stand for and what does it mean (If not self explanatory) Thanks

I know what the purpose of a water seperator is but can someone explain to me how it works and how I know when to replace it and which type should I use for my 2002, 150, Johnson, 2 cycle engine? Thanks

Bama and Richie....... Thanks to both of you for the excellent suggestions. I just came back from checking the plugs and noticed that there was some oil around the threads of all of them. Does that mean anything. Plugs are clean other than the oil. No fouling at all. I'll check for air...

I would appreciate any thoughts/comments on the following situation I am experiencing: After launching, motor fires, turns over and starts immediately Motor works normally from slow idle to running at speed Turn off motor to fish (Half an hour or more) Engine again starts immediately...

Thanks to all of you who gave me suggestions/comments on my recent water issue. Spent all day yesterday on the water and upon loading and pulling the plug no water exited the bilge. Apparently, the water issue I experienced the previous time out was due to the forward bilge water being trapped...

Thanks for your input guys. I am hoping that the water was trapped in the forward bilge and the debris was not allowing the water to drain until I reached the ramp and pulled the plug. I have repetedly ran pressurized water into the tubes going aft to forward and each time noticed less trash...

I would appreciate suggestions on solving a water problem: Have a 1984 204 Fisherman cc. Keep it on a trailer. The following is the series of events that occured last week: Before launching, positioned boat on steepest part of ramp to drain any rain water. No water flowed out of bilge...

Does anyone know where I can get one or have one made?

By malfunction I mean that, when at cruising speed, the display screen goes from a normal operational display to a series of vertical lines and overall screen distortion.

Has anyone experienced this problem with a Garmin 160c? Shortly after reaching cruising speed the disply screen malfunctions. The only way to resolve the problem is to turn the unit off, stop the boat, and then turn the unit back on. When I return to cruising speed the same issue occurs...
