We had a 260SD and actually named her "Tip-Sea". It's really not that bad and with some practice and getting to know how your boat handles it's really a non issue. That being said, the happiest day of my wife's life was the day we sold that boat. The tipping motion is amplified due to the...

Steve195 I have a Phantom 4 and use Adobe Premiere Pro for editing. This was the first flight for the 4, the old bird was a Phantom 2V+. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hello fellow boaters, I haven't been around in awhile so I thought I'd share this video I made. It's a little over 4 minutes long, but I think it's worth every minute. Filmed on my buddies 2007 290 SLX. Let me know what you think! https://youtu.be/75tvrWu0zFQ

I have mica on my boat and it attracts dirt like you wouldn't believe. The only way to keep it clean is on hands and knees with a stiff scrub brush and some cleaner like bleach white. I wish I would have gone with the grey camo since it wouldn't show dirt so much. Other than that I love it...

I did both my bravo 1s without removing anything. It takes a swivel socket, a good friend to help and lots of patience!!! The hardest part is getting the bolt back in. I cut a long strip of stiff plastic from an accordion file folder thing and drilled a hole in the end to hold the bolt. Make...

Just as a point of reference, I had a 2006 260DA and it had the limber holes. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2mk6w97wxs1tqwl/photo%202.JPG?dl=0

Love everything about our SeaDek except trying to keep it clean. We got the mica color which is a light grey and even dirty bare feet leave marks. It does come clean with some boat soap and a brush, but it seems like there is always a few marks that I have to get on my hands and knees with some...

I fully understand the intricacies of electronic circuits, but I don't plan on leaving my underwater lights on for long enough for them to become out of sync. If they do become out of sync after a day or two I can just turn them off/on to reset them. Just for fun, I just turned on my pool lights...

I tried the Gatlin 4000 lumen light and it was "OK". Pretty bright, but not enough for me and I didn't like the whole plug thing. I was afraid the guys at the marina might damage the cord taking it out after each time we used the boat. I decided to go with the Seablaze X for a little extra...

My pool/spa lights are absolutely not externally controlled and I can tell you they synch with each other for 6-8 hours at a time with no problem. Maybe they are off by a few milliseconds, but not to the human eye. Or maybe they're just magic? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I emailed customer service about that and they told me that's just the way it is. I was told it is because the fade is random, not a set pattern. It absolutely CAN be done, my pool/spa lights fade and sync just fine. Seems like high dollar boat lights that are frequently installed with multiple...

The dealer for the last car I purchased said they could get me a great rate of x.x%. I said that's OK I can get a lower rate of x.x% at my credit union, ABC-FCU. They said "Oh, we work with ABC-FCU, let's see what we can do". Guess what? They got the same rate for me, no problem. Now, why...

If you are going through the dealer finance manager they might be playing a game because they make money on the back side. "Sorry, we couldn't get you hooked with bank A so we had to go with bank B instead. At a slightly higher rate of course." I always shop my own financing for this same...

I've got a Playbar, Play:3 and a Connect. It ain't cheap, but I love it. Great sound and ease of use.

I've had good luck with uShip.com. Lots of transporters with trailers.
