    Out to lunch Gear Oil Prices

    The expense of the motor is exactly the reason why they think they can engage in this type of price gouging but I don't believe the snake oil pitch.

    Out to lunch Gear Oil Prices

They keep citing vague explanations of emulsifiers . ALL AUTOMOTIVE...

    Floor feels OK but a little spongy

    Hope this question is not too silly. Apart from the negative aspects of a spongy floor my question is: If the Stringers are rotten ....am I risking hull damage by not replacing them? My thought is (or hope) is that the stringers are glassed in and that the Fiber Glass itself provides...
