    A sad end to memorial day in Erie

    I do not know the the people personally, but a very good friend of mine does. This is very tragic, it happened right after fueling up tonight and all of details are not in yet. One girl was thrown from the boat and her body has not been found yet. Please... no bashing or arm chair quarter back...

    Bennett trim tab total deflection

    So I finally got the Reinell out for a good run last weekend and played in some light wave action. On the way back in it was some 1 to 2 foot chop on Lake Erie. I was heading straight into them and was surprised that even with the trim tabs all the way down she still kinda hit hard at times...

    Remote trim switch

    I know I saw this on here but searching in the forums and on the Iboats store I cannot find it. I would like to put a remote trim switch on my transom to help while she is on the trailer. Thank you, Craig

    Question on bennet trim tabs for Tabman

    My friend recently purchased a Baha 230 fisherman. The bow rises bad when getting on plane and has a fairly hard time going into waves larger than 2 to 3ft. I was helping him winterize it and noticed his trim tabs seemed really small for the size of the boat and also (in my opinion) too far...

    96 150 Off shore Merc shift shaft removal

    I am going to replace the water pump and have the Merc manual. It says the shift shaft needs to be removed from the gear housing before dropping it. I cannot find anywhere in the manual that states how to do that. Any help is appreciated

    How much?

    I have recently repowered and upgraded. I want to sell my old motor and usually use ebay to set a starting price, but there are hardly any outboards on there right now. It's a 1990 90hp Evinrude with power tilt and trim in good shape. The controls will go with it. What do you guys think it is...

    96 150hp Johnson Powerband???

    Hello all, I have a friend with the above motor on 21ft Trophy. The engine acts like it has a powerband. As you are accelerating it will all of a sudden take off like you went to full throttle and when throttling down it will hit a point and drop off quick. It is not because the boat is planing...
