It's the PayPal "Goods and Services" option. https://www.paypal.com/us/cshelp/article/whats-the-difference-between-friends-and-family-or-goods-and-services-payments-help277

Sorry they got you. I know the feeling, but luckily I was able to stop the PayPal transaction since I realized it was a scam so quickly. One other bit of advice is to never use PayPal Friends &Family for the transaction. Always pay the fee to get the buyer protection when dealing with someone...

That's good to know. It looks scarier than it is.

Haha. Thanks. In all seriousness though, that white connector should have a rubber boot or at least some electrical tape wrapped around the back side of it and be oriented horizontally so water can't use gravity to drip down the wires and into the connector. The other big issue would take a long...

This picture gives me OCD... non-waterproof white connector plug with exposed pins... a cable inside a black woven sheath that looks to be about 10 feet too long so it was just folded back and forth and zip tied in a bundle... positive and negative battery cables routed from the middle black...

JJF is right. They are used to create load on the motor in a test tank without throwing water all over the place. I don't know what size you would need for your motor, but I found a few on eBay that seem reasonably priced...

Yes you can see it. That tongue that sticks out on top of #6 is the steering tiller external to the motor. I have his same motor and I know exactly what he’s talking about. It’s a constant maintenance part for me. The tongue is cast steel, and rusts like crazy. If that’s corroded through and...

Seasick, from what Marki described, the arm of part number 6 in the linked schematic below has corroded and is about to snap off (Yamaha P/N 6E5-42510-25-8D, or a different one, depending on the shaft length). This is a pretty common issue for this motor. But you're right, it's very possible the...

I've got your same motor. Do you have hydraulic or mechanical steering? I don't know if the steering arms are different between the steering types. Our steering arm is a constant source of maintenance since it's cast steel and rusts. Our shop says it's not an easy job to change out, but I don't...

That's why they sold [insert item here] in packs of 3 when you needed 2 or 4 of said item... ;)

The correct tool would be a slotted spanner wrench similar to this photo.

Now you've done it, seasick! Haha. There's no such thing as an imperial liter. Liters are liters since the metric system actually makes sense. There are, however, US liquid gallons, US dry gallons, and Imperial (UK) gallons... so to make things even more confusing...

Grady changed from aluminum to plastic fuel tanks for the 208 in 1997 and kept the listed capacity at 82 gallons.

Yep, it's a 1995 model year, and that's all I could sell it as. Between 1995 and 1998 GW changed the cosmetics of the top side, but they pulled out the old molds used in 1995 to re-make my hull so it looks like a 1995, not a 1998. But, I did get some nice changes that were made to the boat...

Except... not in my case... My 1995 hull was manufactured in 1998... Granted that was a special case where the original hull was replaced under warranty so GW manufactured a new hull and gave it the original HIN of the now scrapped original hull.

That's what I use the port side livewell for... Pop a gill, throw the fish in and keep the pump running. That bleeds them out pretty well and the constant water change keeps them from sitting in a pool of blood. I was planning on going out next weekend until I saw the forecast. Yesterday the...

So that was you! My buddies up in Santa Cruz were telling me there was a dorado caught in Ft. Bragg right after I was telling them the dorado fishing down here was the best it’s ever been Awesome job!

Yep... It's the only fish I purposely try to stick in the middle and not the head so they don't flop off the gaff. Here's a video from a few years ago of our stupid antics on a dorado that fell off the gaff inside the boat.... fishing rods falling everywhere... bait net falling overboard... me...

Dorado are annoying to gaff anyway... :D

Good luck, you guys... Dana Wharf Sportfishing set a record for most dorado ever caught in 1 day at their landing today...
