    Food for thought

    Just so some don`t think I am claiming this as my own work, this is a CAP! Since the start of the war on terror in Iraq and Afghanistan , the sacrifice has been enormous. In the time period from the invasion of Iraq in March 2003 through now, we have lost a total of 3,140 soldiers. As tragic as...

    The speach GW should make!

    Normally, I start these things out by saying "My Fellow Americans." Not doing it this time. If the polls are any indication, I don't know who more than half of you are anymore. I do know something terrible has happened, and that you're really not fellow Americans any longer. I'll cut...

    Wrong Plugs

    I never though about checking untill tonight. I knew the 1996 200 Johnson I have now had a surface gap plug in it and just assumed they were the right plugs. Turns out that it`s suppose to have a regular plug. The Champion # is QL 16v that is in it. I keep hearing that I should use only...

    Hey Dhadley

    I was told that the 3 liter 200`s needed a jet change in either #1 or #2 cylinder, which one is it? Something like a 65 to a 67. Looking at the engine from the carb side, which one is it?

    Let the testing begin!

    OK, to start off, it`s a 1996 Stratos 295 Pro XL, 19 1/2' with a 3 ltr Johnson Limeted Edition 200 HP. I have all but confermed that the true HP of this engine is 225. I have only rung it out one time without a GPS and the boat speedo says 68-69 MPH @ 5,900 RPM Fully tournament loaded and two...

    Smart Tabs! Interesting transom design?

    First off, here is a picture of my transom. It`s a three step design, the red line is about 13" The left side is about 5" in from the next step, the right side is about 1" in. The whole mounting area is less than an inch high because it is curved. Would there be anything wrong mounting...

    Democracy as we know it

    I have read this before and each time it seems to sink in a little bit deeper . . . About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the...

    wiring question!

    I put this in electrical, but I got nothing. Having just started going over the boat I just bought, a 1996 295 Pro XL Stratos, I`m a bit stumped. There were no batteries in the boat when I got it. I`m fully aware of how to get 24 Volts out of the two new Trojan Group 31 batteries, but I`m...

    Russian drivers!

    READ FIRST BEFORE WATCHING THE VIDEO! This tunnel in Russia is the longest in-city tunnel of Europe. There is a river running over it and water leaks at some points. When the temperature reaches minus 38 degrees like it did this particular winter, the road freezes and the result is the...
