The # on it is 91224 and 185777 and it says CYL AY and 150HP. I don't know if these mean anything or not. Also, the # stamped on the plug above the...

It had been sitting for several years and it seemed every time we found one problem, another one would arise. Carbs have been rebuilt, all lines have been replaced, primer bulb replaced, new...

    95 Stratos taking on water

    We recently purchashed a 95 Stratos 284FS. The first time we took it to the lake, it took on so much water, that it came up into the floor. We took it home, plugged every hole in the boat except for the one beside the plug where I am assuming the livewells drain. Went back to the lake and the...
