    Solunar Theory

    So I have been fishing (or at least drinking beer with a line in the water) for a while and I just came across this the other day. Is there any actual merit to this? Or does there just appear to be more activity because more people are fishing so there is a larger coverage of the water and...

    Out of water running

    So I am trying to adjust my shift cable and double check that it is correct before hogging up a boat ramp for an hour because the boat won't shift into gear. I am trying to double check my work and have adjusted the stern shift linkage to 6" from the center of the barrel to the center of the...

    New boat installing trim switch and sender help

    Hello all, I am new here and have ran into a wall. I just purchased a '79 Sea Ray SRV-195 that needed some work last weekend. One of the things that needed replaced were the tilt/trim switch/sender pods on the back. The person before me cut the wires on the interior of the boat. I think I found...
