The problem today is people have such thin skin. Most people get offended way to easy, and the worst of it is the "offense" they have suffered really did no damage at all. I would bet most of us on here were raised to understand "sticks and stones" theory but somewhere along the way people got...
I trailer so fill the boat up then drive 20 miles to the dock so plenty of time to vent fumes, but I still run the blower as soon as it hits the water, then go park walk back and open the rear hatch for a smell, then start it up. Glad to know I am doing something right at least.
My Suburban only get 10.5 MPG and has a 40 gallon tank so I watch prices and pay attention to where I get fuel. Usually put in around 32-34 gallons when I fill up so a .10 difference in price means about a $3 dollar difference in total cost, so for me I won’t go too far out of the way for $3...
Genius, I did not know about smart tabs, they look like just the ticket. I think I can still try the 12.5x21 and hope that puts me in the cruise and RPM range I want, then if it does not pull hard enough I will add smart tabs, and after that I will try again with just prop choices to fine tune...
Ok so some revising and questions, caught a log or stump or just the bottom, but broke my prop again so time for another one.
I have to change some statements from before, I had too much time between prop changes and did not realize what the difference was on the 4 blade. After I put the...
That is some crazy ****!! Seems like you should be able to file something with their government to protest this and get your money back as well as be removed from the list?
A lot has happened with the boating experience for me the past few weeks, gaining a lot of hard earned knowledge. Where to start…well tubing is a lot of fun, I had a blast and the kids love it, except for little boy who just turned 5. He had fun the first time we went out but after the tube...
ok I did swap to a 4 blade 14.5x17 and it feels the same as far as hole shot and how it planes, I can get more RPM but speed has dropped off about 4 MPH. So ready for round two on this and I need to understand what the diameter of the pro does? I picked up new trim ram bushings and chatted with...
Google has plenty to keep you entertained and me out of trouble. I worked at Raytheon Missile Systems before I moved to Space and Airborne and can assure you we have some really good stuff.
Agree with the above, pulled a tube for the first time yesterday and i drove and used a spotter and we had a great time, i dod turn to see the tube at times but 99% of the time I just drove. Couple things, if you go to slow the tube will want to submarine so you do need to faster than you might...
