Well,
The Mercruiser Engine Guardian feature has sufficiently ruined my 4th of July holiday. Basically the system that is supposed to protect the engine, and ensure many years of faithful service in my humble opinion isn't worth the silicon it occupies.
Brief history:
Boat comes from Sea...
Hi there,
As many of you know, I recently purchased a 260SD with the 496Mag. My boat makes 375 horsepower, and came from the factory with 24P Bravo Three prop set. The dry weight is 4960 lbs. I've got just over ten hours on the boat, so it is okay to hit WoT in short bursts as part of the break...
All,
RumbleFish has an ITS waketower, with an integrated bimini. It uses standard ball and socket hardware, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to stow it while still connected to the tower. The only way I have been able to stow the bimini is to pull it out of the socket, zip it up...
Finally took delivery yesterday. Here are a few of the quick pics we took of her.
All in all, I'm pretty happy. I am surprised at how fast it gets on plane for such a big boat. 24 Pitch B3 props may be a little small for this baby. I'm wondering if the dealer ordered 24P props because it...

I'm hoping to seal the deal on a new SD260 on Tuesday with a 496MAG DTS. From what I've read about DTS, it is exceptional for throttle response, and the smart tow feature. However, I've been unable to substantiate if the outdrive sees any protection from this wizbang?
I'm eager to teach my...
When I was putting the canvas back on my 220 Select this weekend, apparently my Knee hit the bilge pump switch, and I didn't notice it. It ran the battery completely dead. I'm pretty sure that there was no water in the bilge area when the pump was running.....did I smoke the pump? I don't really...
Hello there,
I just bought a very clean 220 Select with the 350MAG and B3 outdrive. Overall, I'm very impressed with the boat, however, I have a couple of questions.
1) When I open the engine compartment, there is a rather large open area with the bilge pump in it. Does anyone think that...
