Hey all, I have been without a radio for about 2 years and went ahead and bit the bullet to buy a radio and some speakers. I bought the Westmarine radio 200w w/ (2) 6.5in speakers (on sale for 99 bucks. I know these aren't the alpine or jBL's but they sounded descent for the money. I...

I have (2) bats, with a perko selector switch that has positions:1, 2, Both or Off. I was told by SEATOW that I should either select the 1 or 2 when running and cannot switch to another postion when the engine is started and that I should only use the both postion when both bats are too week to...

wanted everyones opinion on cleaning an OB motor. A co-worker of mine swears by spraying his engine down with WD -40 and wipping it down to prevent corrosion. I've never considered this or have attempted. I keep my bote in the water year round and only pull her to clean or repaint the bottom...

Question: do the trim tabs operate independent of each other or do they go in opposite direction; meaning that when trimming one down the other retracts? The reason I'm asking is that i was trying to trim both tabs in the down position in order to get more lift at the transom for faster...

Got some copper based ablative paint on my tabs and actuators I want to remove. I just bought the 226 boat - the previous owner had the boat professionally bottom painted once, then just slapped on the paint when it started to come off. The paint seems to be just falling off the tabs soince it...

Finally pulled the trigger and bought my first boat. A 1994 226 w/ a 2001 Johnson 200hp. The only thing I wish I would have considered was a hardtop. Anyone have any ideas were I could get my hands on a decent hardtop that won't break the bank and look as if it came w/ the boat. If I don't...
