It's a pain in the butt, however the best way is to take it all out of the locker and lay it out straight. Pull it tight and the twists will come out (on the dock or in a parking lot) Then reload it.

I usually run on the Chesapeake Bay. I am never more than 30 minutes from a marina with gas, so it just doesn't make sense to carry around all that extra fuel. I have no problem hitting 40 MPH at full throttle. Went from Annapolis to Indian River Del and back (round trip was 235 miles) and...

Cruise at 48-4900 RPM and about 29 MPH. At that rate I'm burning about 28 GPH. Full out at 58-5900 RPM I can get 40 MPH. Numbers are with 89 octane, full water, a ton of gear (my wife stocks the boat with everything you could possibly need!) most time 1/2 tanks of fuel and the engines...

My Son recently added one to his 226. He called Grady customer service and they gave him the exact install location. Give them a try.

Yep- it's that breaker under the gunnel on the starboard side. Nobody showed me where it was either when I bought the boat!!!

Simple Green for the everyday stuff. Bar Keepers Friend for the really tough stains on the non-skid. As far as the Black Marks....tell the first mate to get another pair of shoes or be prepared to scrub, (that is unless the first mate is your Wife. :D )

If you have a motor that is still under warranty make sure you understand how it attaches before you buy it. Most of these require you to bolt it to the cavitation plate. That will void your warranty.

The pump and strainer are located in a weird place. Go into the aft cabin and you will see an access panel on the Port side of the berh. Remove the screw caps and the screws and take off the panel. You will find everything right there. Make sure you have a drill / driver for the screws - there...

They just keep screwing us here in MD :?

Spray 9 at any marine supply store. I use it all the time.

Don't hold back...tell us what you really think. :D

I agree with the Collinite Insulator Wax. Any good marine store should have it.

Congratulations Brian. Sounds like the club is off to a great start.

Here's the situation I had. In June 2004 I bought a new 30 Marlin (2004) I ran it for the rest of the summer and fall and layed it up for the winter in late Nov 2004. We had a weird winter that year (2004-05)with a lot of usually warm days followed by real cold nights. In the spring (early...

Spray 9. It works wonders!!!

I spray them down with lots of water, then wipe them gently with a soft cloth as I pour on more water with the hose. I dry them with a terry cloth towel and use Plexus. I never use soap of any kind just lots of water.

[/b] That works too!!!

Believe it or not.... a bottle of cheap white wine works wonders for fresh water tanks. Just dump it in and run it through. You'll be amazed at the difference. Most people make a huge mistake by turning on the water heater before completely flushing it out. Once that pink stuff gets hot...

Re: Sierra products Stay away. First, if you are using E-10 gas make sure you are using a 10 micron filter only! The Yamaha 10 micron filters are made so much better that the off brands and Racor. Second, they are not that much more expensive to worry about when you consider the cost of...

Coming together nicely. See you tomorrow (Sun) in Solomons for a look see.
