This winter I'm looking at storing it outside ($100 for outdoor -vs- $500 indoor). My question is will this cover do for outdoor storage over the winter...

    Anyone use Vonage for their home phone?

    Where to mount a flag

    I want to put a U.S. Ensign on my boat but I'm not sure where to mount it. I was thinking of using a flush mount socket centered on the swim platform but I don't know if that would look right.

    Tow vehicle for 88' 268DA

    Prop ?

    I'm looking for a SS prop for my 1995 200 BR. Mercury Parts Express doesn't go beyond model year 2000 and the ratio for an Alpha I drive was 1.62:1 but it lists an Enertia 14 x 19, SKU: 898998A46. I found the same SKU on eBay but it's listed as 14-3/8 x 19. is the 3/8 anything to be concerned...

    Trailer Hitch Coupler

    The coupler on my trailer seems to be sticking when I try to disconnect it. I have an Atwood Hydraulic coupler. It has a small release lever on the top. It worked fine up till I had to disconnect it with my truck at a 45 degree angle to the trailer. I couldn't get the release lever to open...
