    Hello guys, got a motor question for ya. I have a 1992 25hp Rude with the primer system. It runs great after i prime it up(3 or 4 pulls usually does it), but if it goes dead before it gets warm(like all 2 strokes), you gotta prime it up all over again.

    Jack Plate help

    So I installed a Bobs Mini jack plate on my 1448, using the holes that were already there from a previous project. I thought I would give these a try since I would not have to drill any more holes in my transom. Anyway, the end results kinda worries me. The setback is just over 6" and the...

    Stupidest thing you ever did on the water???

    So last week I was tying on a jig and I pulled out my leatherman to cut the tail off the knot. I clipped it, and instead of tossing the jig off the edge of my boat, i tossed my leatherman, in 20' of water. FAIL

    What's your worst medical/dental experience?

    As a Navy Corpsman, I hear all kinds of horror stories about bad experiences at the doctor's office, dentist's office or hospital. Its absolutely insane to know that they let some of these people practice medicine. Reminds me of the joke: What do you call the guy at the bottom of his class in...

Anyway, it has this 30hp Yamaha electric start/short shaft on it that hasnt been ran in over 10 years. Its not locked up, but it does have some dryrotting up under the cowling. I think its a 1980...

    Batteries for Dummies

    So I just bought a new battery. Its a Everstart Maxx Marine 29 series. It replaced my old 27 series Duralast that left me stranded a few weeks ago. My question is this: What is the difference between a 27 and a 29 series battery? Would a 31 series have been a better choice? Thanks guys
