    These speeds seem right 24' 115 22mph

    I just bought a 1993 24' Aquapatio. Its got a 115 Yamaha 2stk on it. It has a 13.5x15 solaris SS prop. At 4K I am getting a rock solid 18 on GPS. WOT is 4800-4900 and can get 22. Everything I have seen is the WOT range is 4500-5500. 22 just seems low. Whats everyone think?

    Replacement Choke Coil for Mercarb

    Well the choke on my Mercarb isn't working. When I bought the boat the PO had zip tied the choke open. I rebuilt it due to stalling on take off in gear. Runs like a champ except getting it started for the first time and after letting it sit for a bit can be a pain. Ive looked them up online...

In doing so it bent my bow roller bracket to hell and bent both my bunks. So now I need a new bow roller bracket and bunks. The original bow Bracket was...

    Small Hole in Exhaust Y-Pipe...Possible Fixes?

    Took my boat out again....and again another problem arose. I have a small hole (.25" x .375") on top of of the Y-Pipe just before it goes into the transom. So it is constantly taking on water when the motor isn't running. Any fixes? Would JB-Weld do it since its far away from the heat...

    So I bought a 92 Glastonbury 17ft with a mercruiser 4.3 and alpha one out drive. First time out today and I discovered the hard way that the shift cable bellow was blown.
