    My turn for a "New to me boat"

    Well made it through the work week, time to troubleshoot the problem. Problem located and an easy fix. The positive battery cable wore through and shorted to the negative cable and the starboard exhaust riser. Pretty sure it was all still original wiring so was probably already wearing through...

    My turn for a "New to me boat"

    Been watching boat ads for awhile now. A few aluminum had my eye but sold before I could get a response. So I was keeping tabs on a 1992 Seaswirl Striper 200 with a 4.3 OMC Cobra.

    I got back out on the lake this past Sunday. Got 2 Rainbow, 13 and 14 inch. Was too breezy, but still an enjoyable trip. Forgot to put on sunscreen until I was already getting burnt. Of course it didn't help that I didn't put the top up due to the wind. Jim Allen

    Finally have water in our local reservoirs! Took the boat out today for a shakedown as it's been almost 2 full years. Last trip was June of 2021. Boat fired up and ran flawlessly. Still running on the gas from 2020 for the inboard. Last summer I bought a 2019 Honda 8hp longshaft to replace the...

    Towboggan watermat nosediving

    no I have a couple of the tubes. Without the booster ball, no matter what we tried it would play submarine. My daughter wasn't impressed. 2 different tubes and same results.one tube was new, the other was from the 90's and used to pull with a 1964 Silverline with a 35hp Evinrude. Tow points were...
