    Drain Fuel from Tank

    I have done the same as BradSE21 and I add a section of longer hose with hose barb connection to drain out the drain plug hole to get better gravity siphon. For larger amounts I got a (OK for Fuel) hand crank transfer pump and this pulls every drop out as long as I keep cranking the pump I...

    Opinions on Trailer Dolly's, Trailer Valet's and the like...

    This works on a smooth hard surface like concrete garage floor or concrete drive. A 4-6 ton floor jack with a hitch ball welded to the jack plate can help move the boat that size on the trailer. My Dad had one borrowing the concept from some of his racing car buddies and I could easily use it...

    Boat/Truck Suggestions/Help

    My 2300 towed by my Exploer V8, does get it done but with surge brakes on the trailer it does wear out the vehicles brakes faster. Thinking a F150 will be fine with the new echo boost V6. Electric over surge brakes on a well balanced trailer will really help out the trucks brakes too. Look at...

    hello

    I have that boat :lol: seriously great boa and very easy to handle by one's self and stable fishing platform. Do get the insert for the front deck. There is nothing quite like running up there and casting at a school of fish, when hooked up it is my favorite place to catch fish on the boat...

    New Seadek

    The deck would feel great on bare feet and a nice summer day, but my first thought was how in the world does Flounder poo come off of that ? I still haven't put gunnel knee pads on yet. Would you use the standard vinyl over foam or sea dec like product ?

    Question for 225,250,300 4.2 series Yamaha outboards

    Try dual side muffs on main pick ups with good hose pressure on each side pick ups and duct tape on lower pick ups to block air being sucked in. This works just fine for maintenance or other test runs on the hard. I also use a large rectangle chest style from Rubber Maid to place the prop in...

    Atlantic Halibut

    Awesome catch, even if you weren't fishing for them it was good to catch one just for the halibut. :lol:

    First fish first storm on new to me 2100dv

    Good happy ending to your story. It is fantastic how these CC can run dry. If I get a splash, I always blame myself for not having the perfect trim for conditions rather than the boat.

    Rocking reducer at anchor

    I anchor in some areas that have a lot of boat wakes and as my Parker fares better than most but I was fooling around to make a bird like device to avoid so excessive rocking. I make my own boat buckets and tied one mid ship it helped a good deal. My question: should I cut a 2 inch hole in...

    15 1/2 x 17 for 3 blade is maybe a starting point, or 4 blade 17, again only suggested starting point.

    Gasket for forward seating in CC

    god idea but, I haven't done it. They make a white weather tape for windows in closed foam type, experiment with one side and leave one non- taped maybe as idea to see if you like it. I think the sticking power maybe the issue, I can see the tape coming up with the lid. Try putting the tape on...

    Don't have much porpoise issue, must be weight issue as I travel light and have found in any load it is a balance of speed, sea conditions and tabs.What prop do you have now if i missed in the post ?
