In my 2006 240 Sundeck I have the 2 battery setup both are the same and were purchased from Westmarine last year. Both require me to put distilled water in them (They are called wet acid batteries right?) Forgive my lack of battery knowlege but that's why I'm here for all of you experts to...

Ok I can't take it anymore :smt101 I've been here in MN for work since Aug 09 (I do get to go home for an occational weekend) and I've not seen my boat since June. I live in Florida and can boat 365 days a year if I wanted to. SOOO now that it's startin to get warm up here in MN and since...

I'll be in the area for a couple of weeks if anyone want to meet I'll probably be board in the evenings and weekend. It's a business trip. Looks like there are lots of nice lakes. I will be without car/boat. Is there anything I should see while I'm there I've never been up that far north.

So does there exist a Dry Storage search/compare/review site? I've been considering Palm Island Marina where I've gotten good feedback but feel that if I'm gonna go for something like this I should atleast look at some others rather then go for my first choice. I'm looking for something in...

I'm no expert but they look like they are in pretty good shape to me. Impeller has a bit of a set to it but I think that's pretty normal, don't look worn at all. Plugs look normal except for the bit of rust on a couple of them.

Well I managed to make it out for the very first time at night and in a very crowded area to see fireworks. Managed to do it without problems (except for the fishing line in another one of my posts) Now I know I've seen my fair share of dumb boaters, but until you go out at night on a...

Pulled this off my prop, not sure at one point I snagged it but I think it was the evening of the 4th on our way out to see fireworks. Why they feel they need to cast out in the middle of the channel where there is clearly boating traffic and don't bother pulling their lines in doesn't make...

Our normal usuage is in Friday evening/Sat morning and out Sunday evening with a flush and a thorough wash. There are occasions where I actually get vacation days and we will have the boat in the water longer. Well I figured I'd post a couple of pictures of what one week with your boat in...

I couldn't come up with a good title for this but if I put what I thought the title should be I'd probably get yelled at by Wes. Ok little history first, Bought my boat from Clearwater Marine Max in Oct 2006 from whom we will call Sales Guy #1. 1-2 years after I bought my boat he retired so...

Ok over the weekend there was some decent chop and coming back on plain I noticed the smart craft display kept showing the Trim Indicator which was 0 through the chop. Is this normal or is there something wrong with my drive where it's moving around and causing the Trim to display. At one...

The reason I ask this is over the weekend there were alot of idiots using 16 for general conversation (guess cause it's getting close to the 4th the idiots are coming out on their boats more). Of course the CG was barking at them to stop and I could tell the CG radio person was actually...

So last week while on Vacation MM had to come to the boat 3 times to replace H20 PSI and PITOT sensors that kept going bad. Friday I dropped the boat off with them so they could have it for the week to work with Mercury to figure out the issue and it seems they have and sounds like this is gonna...

So after lots of debate I finaly splurge and order a USB Data Card Reader, 128mb Data Card, and the Blue Charts Software with 1 region unlock (Amazon less then $200 for all of it) I got it all yesterday software is great love all the detail was able to unlock my region without an issue. So I...

First off let me say I'm sure Clearwater MM would of not done anything about it. Anyways I just got a reply on the status of my boat getting it's 2yr/200hr (I have 57hrs) service after I failed at doing it myself, seems it's a good thing I failed! :wow: :wow: I already asked him how this...

Ok so I'd like to pull some of the old gas (probably water) off the bottom of my fuel tank. What's the best way (other then carefully) to pump off that fuel. I was thinking of disconnecting the hose to the fuel shutoff motor and finding something to attach to it but I don't know what to...
