    Quick silver 90w gear oil okay for 60hp

    Very little difference between 80w-90 and 90w, so why not ?

    Thinking about making a trailer cover... Opinions wanted.

    In our small unincorporated town just about anything could be facilitated at the county for a minimum of $750. Unfortunately when that guy passed away, there was nobody to fill his shoes.

    Don't know how good your sewing skills are, but mine are not good so I would pay a pro to do the work. Otherwise I would cringe everytime I saw a cover that I had made.

    I tried towing with the cover on when we purchased our boat new. After it flying off for the third time I gave up on that.

    Best diet to lose 20 lbs?

    Sounds like you need Bearing Buddies. The one with the rubber cap is for the style of axle that has a zerk fitting.

    Boat values

    That perfectly explains what happened when we purchased our only used boat. It was from what I thought was a friend and I paid his asking price. He was so mad at me, he never talked to me again.
