4k rpms is around cruise speed on 4 stroke. Wrong prop as you suggested, or, if it had been running faster, it could be a number of things including dirty bottom of hull, or possibly the shift linkage needs proper adjustment? Basically need more info - did it just start doing this behavior...

I've been told, and I believe, 656 is better than wd40. I still use WD40 for lots of general purpose but only 656 on my engines. Quick search online found: CRC 6-56 is a silicone based product, displaces water/moisture, doesn't cause rubber to crack, and it's film lasts much longer than...

Goooooood mornin' to all! Happy birthday to your grand daughter Cfelton. I got a good visual from your post, now thinking about being in a remote cabin far far away from civilization. LOL Similar with Spare and G's pics, but they didn't even need to use many words to tell the story. Have a...

Glad the shifter worked out. Looking forward to seeing your progress. Great job!

I use stihl weed wacker, chainsaw, blower, etc. Same deal. The chainsaw and the blower is no problem, but the weed whacker gets me every time - which is ON - O or dash? Weed eater is very particular on the starting procedure!

That's funny, I think about realapeelin every time you mention your cat. Junior is a really good cat, likes to hang out, go for a walk, etc. Pretty good hunter too, no bigger than he is. I think he would love some of your fish. :)

Oz looks a lot like my grandcat Junior.

Step you need to rant or rave about something? :) Lets test and see if there's interest right here in this thread. I'll go first.... Rant: It really chaps my arse that there's only 24 hours in a day - how are you supposed to get anything done? Rave: I love my boat and this site! Next?

Hey D, I'm pretty sure it was a Etec 200 HO

My rod boxes need another refresh. Thanks for the motivation Step
