That's his problem...their is no info at SC DMV because they do not title or tag boat trailers and he can't find the serial number on the trailer itself. I think a trip to the VA MVA is order to speak with a supervisor to see what can be done.

Trailers here in SC do not have titles nor are they required to have a license plate, except for large construction equipment trailers and semi trailers. You should be able to get a MCO (manufacturer's certificate of origin) from the trailer manufacturer. Then you need a bill of sale and you...

I have a 2004 208 Adventure. I have two batteries with a switch. I have a Hubble 30 AMP shore power connection, a Promariner-12 battery charger and an inverter with switch in the cabin. I am not sure how to use the battery charger. The wiring from the charger goes to the batteries and the...

Re: Anyone in the Wilmington area? I am about 2 hours from Wilmington, NC and plan to be up there one day next week, possibly Thursday. PM me the details.

The ethanol issue is the 500 lb. gorilla in the living room....it won't go away and there's not much we can do about it. The Obama administration just gave the OK to E15, up from E10....just to compound the problem. If anyone thinks this is about clean air, it is not ...it is about big...

A little elbow grease...some paint....new motor ...might be a good project.

Yep, I was thinking the same thing. Engines are F250s, 2007 model, with 730 hours! Boat is really clean, though, and in Charleston,SC with a 10 month season.

Wow! A guy near me wants $130,000 for a 2002 with 250 Yamahas and a good set of electronics.!

Wow! I noticed that if you buy a case of twelve 16oz bottles it comes to $29 and change per quart which is 2 bucks cheaper than their case of six 32 oz bottles.

Insurance.

I just read where Carol Browner, former EPA head under Clinton and climate adviser to Obama, is abandoning ship because cap and trade is dead and the new congress is taking a closer look at the draconian way in which the EPA rules by edict. Well, for boaters, owners of diesel trucks and cars...

Actually, I was talking to either one of you....anyway, I live 10 minutes from Huntington Beach State Park and it is very nice and have been to Hunting Island many times. Also very nice...lots of great fishing but you can get lost in those creeks down there..GPS a must have. Big tide changes too.

Gimme a shout when you cross under the US 17 bridge on the ICW just north of Georgetown. I'll meet you for lunch or something. You can put in at my marina....Boat Shed in Georgetown. Fuel available.

Well, it looks like ConAgra's campaign contributions worked. The USA Today reports that the EPA has given it's official okie-doakie to produce gasoline with the 15% ethanol content. Watch were you gas up this summer, fellow mariners!

One thing you must remember is that diesel engines, especially with a turbo, need air....LOTS of air. And they need exhaust....LOTS of exhaust. Since this is a diesel refit, you might want to have a knowledgeable person look at the set up to make sure it is good to go.

Yanmar has a reputation of being pretty bullet proof. If your engine is the straight six cylinder with turbo, it weighs, according to the Yanmar web site, somewhere near 900 lbs, about the same as twin 200 four stroke Yammies. Yes, the '93 has the newer hull.

I hear whatcha say, I got two convertibles in my garage but I gotta tell ya, a long day on the water in this sun and heat in South Carolina makes me glad I gotta hard top!

I rinsed out my Yammie F200 using the port and forgot to reconnect it tightly. Next trip out with friends on board, the overheat alarm went off. Engine cut back to idle. I had no idea what was wrong so I got a tow back to port (lucky to have a tow policy). Marina guy found the problem right...

Here in South Carolina, we don't need no stinkin' boat trailer tags, just boat registration which is $30...for three years!

If you go off shore, you might want to think about the safety of twins when you are far away from port. The twin 150s make about 4 mph more at 4500 rpm than 300 with almost the same burn rate according to Grady. The 350 V8 preforms right in the middle of the three with a higher burn rate than...
