I am looking to go from Wilmington,NC towards Fairfax, VA but I think the closest marina will be Occoquan near Woodbridge. Update: I have decided to go with the handheld spotlight, it is exactly what I was looking.

Sorry for the confusion, I did not mean actual headlights. I meant a light that I can shine to see navigation marks that are unlighted as OCNSLR mentioned. As mentioned before I do plan on going only during the day time and stopping at a marina if need be for the night.

I am going to be going to VA from NC this summer and in case I have to boat in the dark what type of lights should I buy that would act as like headlights so I don't run into anything.

Thank you seasick, I will adjust the angle the transducer sits at and perhaps even move it. You could be right about turbulence messing it up, that never occurred to me until you said something.

Hello all, I have a problem with the Garmin 540s transducer/sounder responding the depth at speeds over 7 knots. I have checked all the wiring to make sure nothing is lose, I have tried adjusting the angle of the transducer to see if maybe it was hitting the bottom of the boat on plane. The...

Sorry going off topic but how is gas mileage on the f26 cat? I have heard that they are terrible and just wanted to hear from someone who actually owns the boat instead of a boat tester.

Replaced the spark plug wires and the motor fires up first time. I am going to test it on the water hopefully this weekend to make sure its running correctly and not missing when in motion. Thanks !

So... turn the battery on and stick a volt meter into that plug and see if there is any voltage coming out of it?

Motor - 1997 Evinrude 175 HP V6 Hello all, I changed the spark plugs in the motor and when i take the spark plugs out all of them but top right plugs are blackened. The one in the top right looks like it is a brand new plug and i can only assume that the cylinder is not firing which would...

I just noticed this on my boat i have 3 of them but 1 is missing. I was wondering what it was called, is it something i should be worried about, and where could i probably find one. I am in NC. Thanks in advanced. http://postimage.org/image/e99wygczp http://postimage.org/image/y7ps0txol

Good to know thanks for the replies it was just a thought. I tend to over think things and like to have a backup plan then have a backup plan of the backup plan. If you have seen the Toshiba commercials for their new TV "we are ready to ship if we do not include wireless" then it flashes to...

My biggest fear is be out riding around and the engine dies and having to wait like 10 hours for someone to come tow me or something along those lines. Ive been thinking about how much it would cost to add a 2nd engine to my 20 foot GW. Is there anything not so good about this idea? I was...

I didn't feel the need for a surveyor the boat has been very well maintained with all maintenance records. YES that is why i posted this. Its so bad to go to the ramp and its all smoked up and stuff, i feel bad for the people fishing off the dock. I will have to have the motor checked out...

Hello All, I recently purchased a grady white adventure 208 and when i start it up it smokes a lot. The only way to get it to quit smoking is to drive it. I was wondering if maybe i am starting it up wrong or something? Are outboards supposed to keep blowing smoke until they are driven? It's...
