    9.9 shift linkage.

    Is the shift linkage on my 1982 9.9 Johnson adjustable? Or is it off from the long to short shaft conversion it had before I got it? In the neutral position I am still driving forward. The reverse position is neutral and I have to hold it back to reverse.

    "FREE!" Bow Mount Trolling Motor

    Why so Expencive?

    What make outboard motors cost so much compared to other motors? I understand that 4 cycle, EFI and emissions make them higher than before but. The prices I have been quoted have been as much as a WHOLE car or motorcycle of the same HP.

    New Guy With 14' Super Star

    I picked up an old Starcraft a couple of weeks ago and thought I would share it with you. The best I can tell it is a 1969 Super Star 14 foot. When I got it. After new benches. I just used pine but stained it and put a couple coats of poly on too. It still needs paint but that will have to wait.
