Now that our relocation plans have firmed up (Moving from Las Vegas NV to Gainesville GA in June) Its time to start looking for our next boat. The new house is right on Lake Lanier, and has a very nice boat dock that demands to be filled. We've got family and friends in the area, and I expect...

I cleaned up the garage this weekend, and came across some tools, parts, and accessories that need a new home. Unless otherwise noted, all parts and tools are quicksilver/mercury marine To make this easy, prices below include shipping to the continental US. Reasonable offers considered...

This was taken Sunday at Lake Mead, I don't have any details but he must have been driving pretty crazy to get it up on the rocks like that

I installed LED bulbs in all the fixtures in the cabin this week. I ordered my LEDs from LED Wholesalers I choose to use them over superbright because they listed light output in lumens for all of their products. One of my primary concerns was getting bulbs that would be bright enough, and...

I've never been fond of the sprayer in the cockpit sink, my main problems with it were: the hose is too short to be really useful (besides I have a 25' coil hose in the transom locker) The water came out way to fast, and would splash off the bottom of the sink and go all over the place...

The steering on my 260DA has been stiff since I bought it last season. It requires nearly as much effort (95%) to turn the wheel with the engine on vs engine off. I've finally worked my way down the "to do" list to this item, and am having some trouble pinpointing the cause of the problem...

Seems like the East Coast boys are pretty chummy, and I think some of the NW guys get together occasionally, but are there any Lake Mead boaters that would be interested in a CSR raft-up? I know there are at least of few of you out there....so please speak up, and lets arrange a get together...

We are planning on making a trip to Catalina Island next summer. Looking for any other interested parties to make the crossing together (We don't necessarily have to hang out once we get to the island) I'm still early in the planning stage but this is how I see it going: Day 1: Trailer...

I sold my 240 Sundeck last night, so I'm back to being a one boat owner again. I got what I wanted for it, and it only took a week to sell. I really enjoyed that boat, it was fun driving it yesterday on the sea trial with the buyers....it was the first time I'd had it in the water since buying...

I've been keeping tabs on performance info provided by other 260 owners. Looking specifically at some numbers that Todd recently posted. After seeing his terrific mileage on his recent trip, and comparing his cruise data (30mph @3400rpm) to mine (28mph @ 4000rpm). I'm curious why there would be...

I just purchased the camper package for my 04. As it only came with the single bimini, I have to install the 4 deck hinges for the aft top. Any 01-04 owners willing to take a tape and get the following measurements for me? Forward bimini, aft hinge to aft bimini, forward hinge Aft bimini...

Looking to add trim rings to the gauges on my '96 240SD to stop them from pulling through the cheap vacu-formed dash panel. Any idea where I can get something like these to fit 2" and 4" gauges? Edit to add: I've sent an email to Scott @ Vector Imaging, but I'm looking to get this boat SOLD...

You guys got anymore room in the club house? I'll be taking possession of a "New to Me" 2004 260 DA at the end of the week. She is very clean, and I'm looking forward to weekends on the lake in our floating condo. In preparation for the big day, I've read all 38 pages of the official 260...

Anybody doing it? Have you killed a bus load of nuns on a steep mountain pass? I made an offer on a 2004 yesterday.....wondering if I'll be replacing my tow vehicle as well (2WD Expedition) My guess is yes, although the trailer is really beefy, with torsion axles and Electric over hydraulics...

a tale of a fateful trip..... Had a bit of a Mother's Day adventure.....learned a lot on that trip, and fortunately the lesson wasn't too painful. My mother was in town, and we decided they best way to spend the day would be relaxing at the lake. We found a nice secluded cove in the Virgin...

I've been meaning to start keeping better records....I'm curious what kind of logs everyone else keeps. Paper or Electronic? What do you log? (hours, fuel, maint, trip details, etc?) Anyone have an example log book they can share? Thanks Marty
