Gotcha....thanks and have a safe trip.

Forgive my laziness but this thread is quick long. Are you making any other stops in the GSB other than Shinnecock? Perhaps any stops at Fire Island? I would love to meet some of the CSR crew.

Wow....this is very scary to even look at. Glad everyone is ok. On a similar note I guess, I had always wondered (because this is how my twisted mind works) since I have been towed in by Sea Tow a couple of times, what if something like this happened to the Sea Tow guy as he is towing me. Do I...

Thank you

For full disclosure it was my mechanic and not me that removed them. He did say that some new boats today don't use them and they weren't necessary. Is that not accurate? Should I be considering putting new ones in?

Oh...whew. I thought you were going to tell me that taking them out is the stupidest thing I could have done...LOL.... Mine were melted and had broke off and were causing a partial blockage. My temp was ok right up to 3000 rpms then she would overheat. Check the manifolds, risers, water...

My flapper issue? Uh oh...I feel some bad news coming on.

I had the same exact issues and it turned out to be the exhaust flaps. Removed them and runs cool as can be now.

Cool...I will send him a note. Do you happen to know if he has the whole leg as well?

Hey all....I haven't been on here in a long time. I hope everyone is well and is getting ready for another fun boating season. I splashed my boat 2 weeks ago and so far so good....knock on wood. The only issue so far is last week I went to fold up the legs to the back bench and I snapped...

Boat in driveway, gas cans full, generator at the ready. Power went out at 10am but then came back on at 10:30...thats todays first miracle.

YEP AND ITS ABOUT TIME!!! Im sorry, am I shouting??

Quick question... my boat is going to need to be bottom painted before next season. I wanted to know if I am able to get a good deal now is there any draw back to having it painted in the fall or is it best in the spring? Is there a certain temperature it needs to be for the paint? It will sit...

Damn I forgot to ask...stay tuned

Turns out there was stuff floating in the bowl and blocking the main jet. Should be back on tonight...fingers crossed!!!

Not sure of my prop size but the "prop guy" said it was the right one for my boat. I will see if I can find out the size.

I know you said you are living with it but have you ever had this looked into in the early stages? I have just spent a lot of money on this valve job and if I only increased about 5-6 knots I am going to be pissed!!

So this is interesting. Do you think this is normal for our boats based on age? Others have posted in this thread that we should be at 35+ knots. At WOT I am at about 4400 RPM's. I just had my prop redone, full tune up and valve job. Any thoughts on my carb question?

Im baaaaack. So after about a month of this issue I thought I was in the clear..WRONG!!! The entire valve job has been completed, along with a new intake since my old one was a rusted mess along with new risers. Anyway, take the boat out Saturday looking to air her out. Well, noticed a big...
