    Lets talk about duck poop

    Our slip was geese poop too, everywhere on the dock, everyday. Marina owner bought two cardboard dogs that attach to the side of the dock and the wind blows them around. We haven't had geese poop in over 2 months now. It was something like this site: Dog Decoys Get Rid Of Geese...

    Help with Kohler Generator Please

    I wished I could provide those details. I had another issue which ended up being a warranty issue from the marina so I asked them to look at the genset. After telling them what I had done, they said it was one of four things....capacitor, stator...and I can't remember the other two. He said the...

    Help with Kohler Generator Please

    Just to close the loop on this thread for the next guy, my issue on the generator turned out to be a dead capacitor. Capacitor replaced and all is well. The capacitor on my model is inside the metal compartment and previous owner had replaced it on some point and didn't secure it. It eventually...

    Help with Kohler Generator Please

    I'll have to see if there is an access point on the top or side. I can't recall, but I've never specifically looked for one. In the pic uploaded, there is a little black box attached to the side with a smaller green plug and some wires. I'm not sure what this is or if there is anything to check...

    Help with Kohler Generator Please

    I did not try that because I replaced the fuel pump and added an inline fuel filter. Do you think I still should try what you suggested even after the fuel pump replacement?

    Here's what I have done to date and asking what my next step should be? Generator running fine on water and just died and wouldn't restart. Replaced both spark plugs. Checked both fuses, battery charger fuse was blown - replaced. Other fuse was good, but replaced anyhow. Four batteries on...

    AC replacement

    We bought a MarinAire a few years ago for our 95 Chaparral Signature 310. It has been fantastic and able to keep the temp very cool in the boat when it's 100 degrees plus outside. Very happy with the performance and would purchase again. 11000 Btu, 115V, Self Contained Marine Air Conditioner...

    My Helm Breaker Keeps Tripping - Where to Start?

    My breaker box also contains my two battery selectors. I've uploaded a pic of the breakers. Is my helm really a 50 amp?

    My Helm Breaker Keeps Tripping - Where to Start?

    I'm having an issue with my helm breaker tripping and not sure why, or where to start? When this happens, I lose my nav lights, helm lights, spotlight, and deck lights. Really dark and a bad situation. This just recently began and I did not make any changes to revert back to in order to correct...

    Ionic vs. Corinthian

    @Blueone I just requested samples from Corinthian last week for my Signature 310. Ref the pictures you posted, is that with the aquamat backing and if so, does it stay in place? I like it better than snaps but want to make sure it doesn't move/slip. Thank you.

    Air Conditioning water pump question

    Regarding #3 - Look up your AC units online as each will have a min GPH required. If your new pump doesn't meet the min GPH, the AC will most likely begin throwing error codes.
