    GPS Navigation Software

    I've tried just about all the freebie GPS nav apps out there for a Windows platform and some of them are pretty good but none of them are sophisticated enough to allow any type of modeling. The Navionics stuff doesn't allow for the use of GPS reciever input nor does Map Create 7 (LEI). Google...

    Mystery Bolt

    Re: Mystery Bolt Check the steering arm mount in front of the engine. There should be an extension that's bolted to the swivel pin arm. There's two there and they're supposed to have keepers on them. Here's a pic from a 2011 60hp I have -

    SAR's - Anyone use one on a an outboard?

    Just wondering if anyone has used one of these on an outboard. I've used them on inboards and they work great. I can't see any difference electrically between the two applications. I thought I'd ask around before plunking down the money. Thanks Jay Ref...

    Took a ride to watch the ramp antics this morning. What a hoot! I've never seen so many disabled boats floating aimlessly at the ramp. Owners standing around scratching their heads. And the people trying to squeeze on last body on a boat before heading precariously off to the boat in...

    Westcoast Spreader solution

    I've been all over the place trying to find a lightweight spreader like you find for Walleye on the east coast. It's shaped like a 7 and you slide a sinker with the rubber insert onto the leg. This keeps your bait off the bottom and away from snags. I got really tired of get goofy looks and...

    1960 Merc 600 - Direct Reversing Motor

    Anybody ever restore one of these? I'm going to go get it Saturday. $125.00 complete (no controls). Though it would be perfect fit for a late 50's glasser I've been dinking with.

    Fishing Line

    I'm not a pro and don't want to be so after weeding through thousands of articles on fishing line and spending a lot of money trying just about everything I decided to pass on what I figured out - I carry 6 rods, two Steelehad rods spooled with lead core, a fly rod, spinning rod, bait caster...

    The right advice makes for happy and return customers.

    I'm not sure what it is lately but I've had nothing but IL6's in the shop for the last three weeks. Week before last a gentleman called me and said "No one will even look at my motor, will you help me". He had a 85 IL6 90 Jet and he could only describe the problem as won't run and poor...

    Charging Battery's - Myth Busted

    The question is usually - how should I charge my batteries when the engine is not charging them (not running). The first answer is that you use a A/C powered battery charger that is connected to the battery(s) exactly as the charger manufacturer recommends. Your basic auto parts store charger...
