    Trade-Up ??

    Hey There;<br />Two guys can deal with a 12 ft. Springbok...<br />Three guys, with some gear... is a bit tight, as we figured out this summer/fall. If I could trade up to a 14 ft., would it be any appreciable difference to us. I know its all about the fishin', but a little more leg room would...

    I have to ask...<br /> When I bought the Boat/Motor from my buddy, he said you may have to adjust the "trim" to where you want it...<br />There is a bracket in the back of the motor, with 5 or 6 spaces for a pin that inserts, that the motor rests on. Is this what he was talking about...

    Idle Adjustment Knob

    Gas/Oil Ratio ??

    The person who I purchased my 9.9 Johnson from, says he mixes his gas at 40-1. Is this correct?<br />This is my first outboard and I wouldn't want to ruin it. Sorry for asking what should be obvious to most people. Thanks<br /><br />Kerry
