around 50 hp, new

I grew up around boats and I feel that I had an honest grasp on the engines that were on the market 20-30 years ago. However, times have changed and so have boat motors. With so many different choices and vastly different designs today, I feel like I don't know where to start. I fully...

The only thing that I don't like about Toyota is they don't offer the same diesel engine that the rest of the world gets. When I was in africa, EVERYONE drives Toyotas, and they love them. They like their Toyotas as much as people in Green Bay love the Packers! We're talking about an area...

https://www.crestliner.com/Retriever-models?item_id=96 I was at the boat dealer and they have a nice looking crestliner jon boat. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with one. I like how wide it is, all the way through and the open layout. most of the boats I've looked at have...

Hi, I've been restoring my older 14' polar craft and recently purchased a 25 hp mercury. It's a 1984 merc with a pretty beat up aluminum prop. So I've been searching for a replacement prop, but keep getting lost in the details. So, could someone please point me in the right direction. I...

I couldn't find a picture, but it's basically an outboard with a big steel wheel on the end of the shaft. The wheel looks like a saw blade and allows you to "scratch" your flat bottom boat across the ice. They are fairly popular around here, the trappers use to use them quite a bit.

Get a scratcher.

Top speed.

Ummm....yeah. I didn't realize the price of SS vs AL. I can buy a lot of AL props for the cost of SS. Is there an AL prop that has better performance, or are they all about the same? Thanks for the help.

I have a 25 hp merc on my 14' polarkraft flat bottom. I noticed the aluminum prop has a few dings in it, so I will file off the rough spots for now. I do want to get a new prop before next boating season, and I was wondering what the advantages are from SS to AL? I heard the SS is faster but...

OOPS! I almost forgot, this website ROCKS! I have searched some of the projects that members have done and I am very impressed. I actually found this site on youtube. There are some great craftsmen here and the fact that everyone shares information like this is awesome. Thanks for all of...
