Stupid Question

I know they say there's no such thing as a stupid question but I'm thinking the one I'm about to ask is.....:) I'm getting ready to change the oil in my motors, Merc 330hp gas 350's. Based on responses learned on the forum, I went and bought Rotella T 15-40wt. On closer examination I noticed it says...

Good Day!

Had a nice run on Time Warp yesterday. Weather was nice, about 70. My neighbor was off and we decided to take a run for gas and lunch. Boat hadn't left the dock for several months and really need the bottom scrubed off some. Boat ran perfect and we had a great day. 3200rpm gave about 19-20 knots. Ne...

Re: Bluetooth Stereo

I have 2 separate stereo's. One in the salon and one on the fly bridge. This setup work great for me. Usually there are just 2 of us aboard and we are mostly in the same area, flybridge underway, below when anchored so 2 separate units work good for us......John

Re: This is a Strange one.......

Thanks guys....I probably didn't run the hot long enough to go through 6 gallons....makes sense that I stirred up some sludge in the bottom of the tank. I normally don't run it dry. The tank is poly and has been replaced. I bet it will settle out. We have lousy well water at the marina and we don't ...

I was running pretty much flat out (about 45mph) when I can to a fairly abrupt stop......I had run up on a mud flat. I todk ...

This is a Strange one.......

Well....I was down at the boat today and my fresh water tank ran dry. After filling it up I notice the cold water had a slight brownish tint to it but the hot water did not. There's 1 pump pumping from one tank, the hot water takes a much longer path to the faucet, back through the water heater in t...
