Has anyone tried these yet? I am looking into doing this since I really think my set up is wrong. Both of my props are 16X20 (came from the dealer) and for some reason it seems like the cup comes out of them after about three months. Yank them off, get them worked and it does fine. Then after...

I would say YES to the generator. It gets hot as well as humid here and I know wouldn't want to try to nap in the cabin without it. Kiddos that have a good nap make them a whole lot happier boaters which makes happy parents too. Also it would be a better selling point in Texas when you decide to...

I have seen alot about the IAC's going out. At about how many hours does this usually happen? I am right about 150 hrs.

Thanks for the advice, I got the Insignia at Best Buy then got to looking at it the the wheels started to turn since it was actually a 12 volt TV running on 120vAC. There is a small panel on the lower part of the radar arch that is used to access the bolts to secure the arch on. I was going...

This was kind of touched on in another thread but didn't want to hijack the original question. I bought a 19 inch LED TV to use in our boat. I was looking at the power supply on it which plugs into a wall outlet (120v ac) then runs to a small box which converts it to 12vDC/3A, then to a 2.5mm...

I use a small section of the large swim noodle. I slit it down the side, put the shore power cord in the middle and the noodle fits perfectly into the hole on my 260.

Not trying to hijack here. You guys up north are going to laugh. We have had the rare occurance here in Texas with the colder tempatures and the marina has frozen to about a half inch thick. I went yesterday and broke all the ice out of the slip which was about a 1/4 to 3/8 thick and naturally...

Mine does it also, the outdrive trim will smooth it out. No issues noted during the outdrive service either.

I am going to respond to the performance issues on the last three pages. I had a sudden drop in performance about six weeks ago and just figured the bottom was pretty fouled. I usually pull the boat out right after Labor Day anyway to powerwash the bottom, wax and check things I can't while it...

No e10 at our Marina but I start running Sta-bil Sept. 1st and try to keep the tank full as possible. Also, be sure to run the generator awhile so the treated fuel gets to it also.

Can't forget about the Corps of Enginners permits to use the water space. I'm in a 40X16 with a 14' build out with enough room to keep the jet ski on a lift in the slip. 255.00 a month includes water, 10.00 a month to pump out, and we pay electricity which is about $20.00 to 30.00 a month. So...

Maybe is missed in in your post I am only on the first cup of coffee. Did you make sure the switch was set to AUTO? I know when I start mine manually in the bilge I have to press the switch back over to "AUTO" for it to start remotely from the cabin.

The popcorn is popping. :smt024

My hat is off to salt water guys!:thumbsup: Those are some really good pics, helps me understand what you guys are talking about now. I though it was bad enough trying to stay out of the wake of our friends 44' Cruisers Sedan Bridge throwing out some 4-5 foot rollers as he came by us. :smt100

Don't feel bad. Some how the "It wasn't me" elf (five 23-25 year old kids) was on board this past weekend and ended up with sand in the Vacuflush. Then you hear "Dad......... the toilet is making a crazy noise" :smt013 Glad it wasn't "girl things" Time to pull the head, but after I get get...

We were at a MM Tie-up last weekend. A guy was there with a 2007 340 with the big blocks and said it was crazy how fast he could get up on plane. He also said it was almost like driving a bowrider but be prepared for the fuel bill at the dock after a run up the north end of the lake and back.

That is pretty close to what I get. That is with a full freshwater tank, empty holding tank, full of fuel, two people, a nervous 80lb dog, and other stuff that seems to make its way on to the boat and moderate large inland lake conditions. Considering the overall "wet" weight the performance...

+ 1 :thumbsup: but PK is nice also

I will never buy Carlisle again. I have replaced more Carlisles than I care to count. Unfortunately they come with the trailers except my 260DA trailer. Sidewall failure and belt delamination were common. I literally had 3 blowout on a tandem axle enclosed trailer (empty) while it had been...

My numbers are almost identical to yours.
