from what i understood of the graphs was no loss on top speed and actually a little better through the middle
i understand no motor while people in the water...but i have heard of people cutting themselves badly jumping too close or slipping and falling on top of prop...i havent found anyone who...
i have a 180br with the 135 merc and am wanting to relocate the oil and battery...right now they are in separate compartments under the back seat...is there any reason i can't put them in the same compartment to free up some usable space?
thanks,
tk
i ended up changing out the ram....its a seastar not a baystar....also my mechanic said the 135 is a choked down 150...a little tuning and it will be a 150hp
yah we got a toyhauler...we do a lot of desert riding....so now we got a summer toy...leaving for lake powell this thursday....only bad thing is i have to drive and tow trailer while my wife tows the boat...oh well i guess it costs money to have fun....
^^^^^i have the same issue^^^^^and same boat^^^from what i've found is ours is 100% hydraulic and it was made by teleflex, but i don't know if it is transferable with the baystar, seastar or neither...i am still trying to research.
i have an old 180...with outboard on it...i am noticing that while cruising at 40mph i have to make small adjustments to the steering ...like torque steer...it is a hydraulic setup and when i asked the boat mechanic about it he said it would be best to just replace with a new baystar...
well i've grown up around lake boats and finally bought my own...
1989 180brob
looking forward to learning more and enjoying your sight and the boating experience....
and on the actual water
