    What Winter Looks Like Outside

    Ok, you can come up, but if you want to do some tobogganing, pick your destination carefully. Most of the facilities have been shut down over the years. And if you want to try it, you need to train, these guys are seasoned professionals. They endure months of 12 ounce curls, body waxing, and...

    no water from pee hole in neutral gear

    Welcome to iboats Hahn. Water should be coming out the pee hole in all gears, including neutral. I would suggest that you replace the thermostat and see if that will remedy the situation. It is part number 33, in the diagram in this link: http://www.crowleymarine.com/mercury...cfm?mdl=BRVFQO

    Trailer Backing Issues

    If you really want a challenge, go hook up to a chopper box or hay wagon, where the front axle pivots. And do it with a tractor that doesn't have mirrors way out there. You have to look inside the box to see which way the rear end is moving, if at all, and look at the trailer tongue to see if...

    The elusive Star Trek V center console

    Found this gem for sale locally. Have only ever seen one in a brochure. Can't find other photos online. If the hull was wider, maybe deeper, and longer, I'd buy it. LOL. Anyway, it suppose to be a 1977 15' Star Trek V. Here are a few photos for your enjoyment.

    1986 Mariner 115hp 6 Cylinder Choke issues

    The fuel enricher found on these, and many Mercs and Force engines, are a solenoid operated valve, that allows fuel to flow in the manifold behind the carbs. Enriching the air fuel mix with extra gas. Follow the fuel lines from the carbs, to the port side up near the top carb. When the key is...

    Northern Flying Squirrels.

    Anyone else have these critters? I had one in my attic last winter. Somehow he ended up in the kitchen, chased him out the door. They are about the size of a chipmunk, with huge skin flaps on each side of their body. I now have at least 4 of them visiting my bird feeder each night. Appear to be...

    Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

    This is why I did NOT buy a truck for my new tow vehicle. Not having the ability to tow this big girl will keep from buying something I can't afford or use. No reserve, $100 starting bid, 25'er...

    Multiple battery, grounding, good, bad, ? ?

    I rebuilt my boat a few years ago. Including a complete rewire. All worked well. Everything is wired correctly, well, except for not to ABCXYZ... boat wiring colors. This year, installed new sonar units, and they seem to be more sensitive to low voltage (when starting the main motor). I decided...

    Tire wearing on inside and outside

    OK, here is a photo. Can't really see the wear, and I tried several shots, but this will show where the wear is occurring. Tread contacts road, all the way across. Sidewall is straight, no bulging. I've towed trailers many thousands of miles over the years, often with very light loads, or no...

    Bimini photos for my Mariner

    I have looked at ways to make it a bit more stable. It moves around quite a bit when hitting wakes or rough water. Thought about bringing the two straps together in the center, then running one strap down to the splash well, but it would hit both the rear seat, and the main motor when tilted...
