I have been getting my twin 2006 F150 outboards serviced once a years, usually around Nov, and each time, they change all fluids, grease all zert fittings and change filters and hook the motors up to some computer and I get a print out of how long I have ran at all speeds and good bill of...

They show on the news all the fishermen helping with the various outboards, just courious how all that oil does not ruin the motors ? But time will tell, hopefully all those guys get new after all they have done !

I have the orange, and they are a bummer to put away while we play .

Thanks, looks nice , you are awsome for doing all you do !

I have been wondering, how do all the boats run in that oil filled water where the oil spill is in the gulf ?

Thanks, today I changed the fuel filters, like an idiot I dropped one :shock: , so I flushed the bilge, my oil is really clear and clean, so I will wait, but I have everything and I got the pump from Andy at Sims, I can use it for the dingy motor and lots of motors, so it was a good investment...

Thanks, I will give it a go this weekend, will use the pump for other machines I have, so it seems like a good investment, and on my 150 the oil filters look easy to get to, and the baggie trick seems like a god thing too !

Hi all, I am going to change my oil and gas/water seperators, the gas filters are easy, but the oil I am a tad concerned, I ordered a pump from Sims Marine, and and adapter for the F150 that fits over the dip stick, and I would assume, once I connect it all I pump and tilt the motors to get all...

Cool, thanks for taking the time to write all that, I am looking into it and check it all out, but you said bascally all I have read at this one site , thanks again.

Hi All, I am thinking about getting as 6 pack captains license just for fun for now and to have in case later I want to pursue it as a way to work, I am on the west coast and was wondering if anyone has any words of encouragement. I have found a few sites on the internet that offer complete...

I will check it all out, I have a hard time seeing my 1732, just need a bigger screen, so I am going to check it all out ! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I am worried if it gets rough, the computer will fall and break :)

Thanks, I am going to set up and old computer and try it, thanks for the tip .

I have the same boat, and I keep one of those $50.00 west marine dehumidifier on in mine all year round, very little pitting on one windshield frame, but I think it is from salt water.

Maybe dumb question, but I see a lot of boats with laptops and they are the gps, like on Deadlest catch, is it a spiecal program or what ? I have two good GPS, but it looks cool the way they have it set up, is it easy as a program and external antenna

Thats cool, a hot meal is the ticket, our is rigged like yours, only a Honda Gen :) See you out there !

My son wants to fish, so we will not sell for now :) Plus, this boat is like a family pet, it is family :)

We keep everything covered in the winter, radome, gps antennas, put life raft inside, long bait table ( made out of starboard) even have covers for the LED spreader lights, will post a few pics this weekend with the tower up and the inside organized, it is a tough boat and we made it more...

Dale, I would delete this post, just cannot figure out how ? So if you could, I would appreciate it :) we have decided not to sell for now, Well, we are having second thoughts about selling, it is not a money issue, so I am taking it off the market, my son wants to fish :)

I will be putting our boat up for sale, wanted to give anyone here who may know someone who wants a killer boat , will put it in the for sale section later today or asap, we are sad, but it is time, we will use till it sells :) But this sight rocks, and the amount of things I have learned , is...

Mine had and electric toilet, we cut the tank out and took out the toilet, it smelled no matter what I did and the toilet, once all your gear is in and you are 30 miles out, its a pain to get too, a bucket and a big 5 toilet camping seat works better .
