    Time to sell my V

    I'm going to have to sell my V as I no longer have a place to store it all year. Short story is I've had her since 98 and kept it at my parents house back then for a couple of years in winter. They have moved to Texas so that's gone. I have kept docked in summer and stored on a trailer over...

    Trailer size question.

    I have an undersized single axle trailer now, I only use it to drop it in and pull it out.Trailer is 100 ft from ramp, so it's not really hitting the road, but it need some work, and if I ever needed to take the boat somewhere I really wouldn't feel secure about doing it. I have the opportunity...

    Rebuilding VRO

    My mechanic says the fuel pump has gone, so I'm looking at an attempt to try to rebuild the VRO.From what I've read warped housings seem to be an issue.Is it worth trying to rebuild since the kit will run 100.00 or should I just spring for a new pump?. I'm premixing fuel ,oil so I really don't...

    Do you guys flush your engines?.

    I leave my boat in its slip all season, and I have an older engine without a quick connect so I never flush it out, but I've seen what salt water did to my thermostats when I removed them so I know it would be a good idea to do it. Is there any way to flush an older Evinrude while it sits in the...

    Solar pannel for batteries

    I've had one of those 29.99 solar pannels from west marine for 2 years on one of my batteries. It seems to keep the charge up but the battery dies quickly.It may be that the battery has crapped out, and the pannel keeps recharging it a little.I don't know. I just recently got a starting battery...

    Engine died down at high RPM.

    I put the boat in this morning, took her out for a good run.It was going great for a while, but after I opened it up for a minute she died down from 4200 to like 2500, I thought it stalled out. I threw it in neutral and saw it was still running so I threw it into gear and there she went. I kept...

    Re doing non skid on deck.

    Anyone use Interlux interdeck?.It seems pretty simple it has the granules already mixed in.I'll be using a roller to apply. I could also go with perfection ,but it's almost double the price.There are alot more colors to choose from with perfection, and I guess it would have a glossy finish...

    What is the finish on the deck?.

    The last couple of years I've noticed small cracks forming on the deck.They're around 3/4 inch long and all clustered together in 1 spot.They are about 1 foot by 1 foot area near the rod boxes this time.There are no soft spots that I've noticed.I think the cracks are from expansion or just the...

    Is this a sign of transom problems?.

    Hello, I just found this site, and I wish I had many years ago.

Here's my...
