I was wondering if it is considered proper etiquette to sound your horn prior to beaching... http://youtu.be/QYltdonj2iE

Well, not really, but this is how he brings his guests in to visit. Forgive the shaky video. I was sitting on the jet ski and getting slapped with wake from behind. The neighbors say his previous chopper was shaped and painted like a football helmet of a particular football team who happens to...

I never realized how this took place... http://guardianofvalor.com/behind-the-scenes-as-a-fallen-warrior-comes-home-delta-airlines-honor-guard/

It's a 99 5.0 MCM, 2 bbl carb with 340 hours. Starts and runs perfect. After running for maybe 15-20 minutes it will backfire, like a hiccup, with a corresponding temporary loss of power then right back to normal. All gauges are totally normal with engine temp between 165-170. It never does it...

99 210SD 5.0 MCM 2 barrel with 350 hours. Only after it warms up does it begin to backfire through the intake under load. It only seems to happen between 2600-3600 RPM. Above 3600 on up to WOT at 4800 seems to run fine, as well as lower RPMs and idle speed. It has a fresh tank of non-ethanol...

Anyone here get out on Boone Lake, between Johnson City and Bristol? It's not a huge lake but I've seen a bunch of other Sea Rays out there so far this season. Would be fun to find some other CSR friends there.

Does anyone know where I can find the OEM style bilge SPST switch? The parts manual shows two numbers and I'm not sure which one is the actual switch, 679167 & 648097. This is what it looks like... Great Lakes has the above item but says it is only a cover.

This is my 1st post winter with a stern drive. All my years with outboards had me spoiled when it came to winter layups and starting the first time after. You just squeeze the bulb till it's hard, push the key in to choke and turn. Fire every time. Now I'm wondering if there is a "proper" way...

It finally died, could be OEM but I doubt it. Factory specs call for a 900gph manual with a float switch. I never saw mine until the mechanic drug it out and declared it dead. The parts manual shows it located just aft of the float switch, not further back under the engine where I suspect it had...

I have a set of four Clarion Speaker Grilles, circa 1999, in good condition for free. All I ask for is to pay for the shipping. They came off 6.5" speakers that I just replaced. The speakers were shot but the grilles were in great condition so I thought someone might need them, so I'm upcycling...

1987 Sea Ray Sundancer 250 - $10900 (Asheville) Date: 2012-03-19, 4:55PM EDT Reply to: 8qm8q-2910976035@sale.craigslist.org[Errors when replying to ads?] 1987 Sea Ray Sundancer 250 in excellent condition. The boat has very low hours and the outdrive has been replaced in the last 40 hours. It...

After about 14 years the speakers in my 99 210SD have put in their time and basically turned to dust. The factory speaker cutout is just barely 5 1/16" and I'm having a hard time finding decent speakers at a reasonable price that will fit. My question is... How hard would it be to expand the...

This was one of my winter projects. It's not a big deal but for an old fart like me every climb up the side of the trailer or into the boat just cuts into my lake time so I opted to put this on the transom so I can reach it from the ground. There's something about drilling a 3/4" hole into the...

The gas filled spring lifts on my 99 210SD just don't hold the engine cover up any more. They are Attwood SpringLift Model SL-34-20. From what I can see online those should be 20lb lifts. I picked up a pair from the auto parts store thinking any 20lb strut should probably work since they use a...

Found these while poking around... Someone may find one of them interesting: 20ft. SeaRay 1983.V-8.Really good condition. Professionally maintained. All new hoses, Impeller,battery,many extras. In great mechanical condition, holds 8 adults. $3500 firm. Call or text 864-449-6134 for photo...

I use Startron at every fill up but my method leaves much to be desired so I'm looking for what others do that might work better. I have a plastic beaker with ounce graduations so I calculate gallons x ounces etc. to get the right amount. The problem comes when I try to pour it in the tank. The...

Thought I'd toss out a pic of my son in front of his boat, USS Phillipine Sea, in Burgas, Bulgaria. I don't think they have to winterize. (He's on the right)

With winter around the corner, and glum faces all around due to winterizations... How long is the boating season where you live? I'm talking about freshwater. I know those in Florida and along the gulf coast can giggle as we "northerners" whine about pulling out, shrink wrapping, anti-freezing...

Just had to get outside and take a short drive. My office has no windows and they slip the food under the doors. The sky was perfectly clear, no wind, 72 degrees and I am seriously considering taking tomorrow off to take her out before winter closes in and she gets put up for the duration. I...
