It had failed. Spicers, in Houghton Lake, did the work last year.

Hey all, I have an 88 Mid-cabin with the 4.3 and I am running into a problem when starting. Roughly half the time when I turn the key I hear a click in the engine compartment and the engine doesn't turn over. Move the throttle forward and backward once maybe four times and try again and she...

Interesting call: Strippers Wife Bliss Boat Compare, contrast or prioritize!

It is now March 6th. Budget has already taken an unforeseen hit. It was a good run. Eleven days...new record!

If it was not for the ability to rent, I would have never learned to fly a plane. I know there is a huge difference between planes and boats. As we all can understand, planes don't float and boats don't fly (insert story here). To me the difference, in short, is clientele. There is a...

The grains of sand through the hour glass is winter. Thanks for reaching out in my winter misery, 1956olds.

That, Sir, is too funny/true. I use one wireless modem connection to a wireless router and broadcast. Netflix is 10 bucks.

Taxes...Done 2013 Budget...Done Disposable income....Boat I am so ready for the sweet water. Lake Superior is not just calling, it is howling to me. As a matter of course, so it Indian River. Are you all ready to go?

Welcome. I assume you do your boating on Lake Winnipeg? If so, could you give us some idea of the experience and conditions. The Wifer and I are transient boaters and have looked at making the trip there.

I had two problems with my trim last year. One was with the trim button contacts at the throttle, essentially, becoming flat from use and age. It was a little odd in that there is just a piece of metal in a 'u' shape that had become flattened, just enough, to prevent contact and complete the...

I agree with JVM225 in regard to the peripherals on the engine. It could cost more to make the v6 work. I would even begin to wonder if the engine mounts are different in a boat application when going from 8 to 6. Power wise, I have a v6 (rebuilt in 2012) in my Seville Mid-Cabin (21') and...

No apology required as far as I am concerned. The Wife will be hearing me vent when I pay our property taxes. Here in Michigan, I get to pay an extra millage on my rental property because it isn't homestead. For example the rental property's tax bill is as much as my primary residence even...

Not sure about the tow package available on the 911, but the dually I referenced does have the 80's red interior. Not leather but 'plush'. What to do. What to do.

Late to the discussion but it caught my eye since I am looking to change tow vehicles for this upcoming season. My opinion is to spend more on the toys. I have found vans with the power stroke diesel for less than 9k and just saw a Chevy dually with a 7.4 for 6k. Granted, these are older...

Hey Woody, I will be trailering. I camp on the boat whether on water or land. Not too worried about nothing to do. That is the way I like it and Huron Bay looked quiet. Google Earth shows that the bay has a lot of beach area and not built up. For sure, I have no idea if the beaches are soft or...

Good news, thanks KC_Sundancer. Can you give me any information on Huron Bay in regard to just the pleasure of it? I don't know if you have been around Skanee for boating but I have a sense of the area from camping and 4 wheeling. It would be the second leg of the trip. I don't think I want to...

Need a little info. 2013 will be the second year with the mid-cabin and the Wife and I will be making a trip to Munising. This past season found us running afowl of the State Parks cops because we were parking with the trailer overnight without paying a 'boat camping' fee. We did have the State...

Rhetorical question, but who doesn't want to explore Superior? It's name implies it all. KC_Sundancer, you found a piece of missing history. Congratulations. Hope you have a great picture from the find and enlarge it, frame it, and have a place to hang it.

It was you at Higgins lake this past Labor Day. :grin: ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. CTRL+F5 reloads the whole page.

I can see how that could be taken. I mean how water made me humble and I projected out that others may have felt the same. No worries.
