    State park marina. Table rock lake

    Wondered if anyone has been here recently. How are the facilities/hours at the marina? We called today and they were confused when I asked about shore power. The girl I spoke to stated "we have like a plug in your home". We are planning on staying there for a week around July 4th.

    280 SD battery chargers.

    I went out and checked on the boat today. I have had the shore power plugged in throughout the winter and the charging system kept on to keep the batteries charged.

    Water pressure coming from alpha 1 gen 2 outdrive

    While running my engines I noticed that on my strbd outdrive the water coming out of it was pretty weak. Actually very little coming from the strbd side of the outdrive. So I decided to replace the impellers. Once I got it all apart, the impeller did not look to bad. I put the new impeller...

    New buffalo marina

    We are planning a week long trip in a rental house in lakeside on Lake Michigan. We are debating on taking our 280 SD or our wave runners. The house has no docks, so we would have to get a slip in new buffalo, which is I believe the closest marina. If we take the wave runners, we would just drop...

    Indianapolis maintenance?

    Is there anyone in the Indianapolis area that knows how to service alpha 1 drives and wants to teach me how to properly service them. I would love to learn to do all the maintenance on my boat instead of paying the high dollar at the dealers.

    Port engine just clicks

    The other day I started the port engine. The engine started just fine. I let the engine run for about 10 min. I turned the engine off the hooked up earmuffs with the antifreeze. When I went back up to start the engine, all I get is a click. When you press the button to the acc. position I do...
