simple question I hope. Finally got my boat in the water and everything worked perfectly except I had no sppedometer reading. On my old boats I had a plastic tube that hung off the back but don't see anything like that. What should I be chaecking? thanks.
My boat was starting great and every time. Then I think it may have run out of gas(not sure) and then it wouldn't start. So I put 4 gallons in and it still wouldn't start then finally did and ran beautifully. I shut it down and tried to start it again right away and same thing, wouldn't...
I ordered new snap in berber type carpet from searay but they send the snaps along with it instead of installing them due to accuracy. I have been screwing around with the snaps they sent me and a punch from marine max for 30 minutes and haven't even got one in yet!! It seems like the carpet...
My ignition turns without engaging, think I have to tighten the screww on the inside. How do I get that little panel off to get at the back of the ignition key. Is it an easy fix when I get it off?
I have a 5.0 mercruiser with a bravo three, bought it over the winter and just brought it out of storage for the first time. Haven't started it yet but have oil coming out of the water intake holes of the outdrive? Enough to put a spot on my driveway? Is this normal or what is this?
I just brought by boat out of storage today and need help. Kind of freaking out about one thing. I bought it in the dead of a minnesota winter from georgia and put it right in storage.
1. I have oil dripping out of the water intake holes in my outdrive. I am sure this is not good but what...
earlier I asked about repairing a chip on the bottom of my boat and the group suggested I get the gelcoat repair kit and that it is easy and matches well. My question is that I have a gouge in the black colored gelcoat in the front, very visible part of my boat. Do these fix nicely like the...
First of all, thanks for being so patient on answering some of mu dumb questions, your advice has been very helpful. I bought a boat used in salt water for 4 seasons to fresh water and want to keep it a long time. I was reading about the product salt away and was wondering if I flushed my...
my boat was used in salt water but stored out of the water after each use. It was not flushed out after each use either and was used for 4 seasons and winterized after each season. I will be keeping it in a fresh water lake from this point forward. Is there anything I should be doing to the...
I appreciate all your help. I have 2 small tears about 3 inches long in my tan colored bimini top, can you get matching canvas to patch or what is the best way to repair it? Also, if I wanted to buy a new one, where is the best place for the best prices? Thanks.
In the very front of my engine compartment there is a part listedn the parts manual as 1690371 acc part, merc s-crft trans w/19'nyl dep/temp. It appears to go through the bottom of the boat so I'm assuming it's a depth finder? My other question is that there is a black part loosely wired...
I have a small chip on the bottom part of my hull about one half inch wide and not very deep but I would like to fix it. Can I just use a white epoxy to fill that and touch it up, want to keep it simple if I can. Thanks.
I live in minnesota and bought a boat for christmas from a dealer in Georgia. It's of course freezing here but before I put the boat in winter storage I went to turn the key to what I thought would be an accessory position like on a car to double check the engine hours. When I did the key just...
