    Lewmar Windless

    Only familiar with vertical windlass but binding is typical a lack of drop in the locker and or getting slack in the rode during retrieval. Have adequate drop (18" min.) in your anchor locker? Rode slipping or clutch?

    Standard Horizon 890 charger makes interference in Standard Horizon 1400 Eclipse hard mount when charging.

    It’s not a power issue per say. It’s RFI from the charger causing your problem. Check the integrity of the fixed mount antenna connector and the ground connections on your charger. A bad ground on either line will cause problems. Pull the antenna off with the charger on. If noise goes away...

    Solar pool heater water flow question(s)

    I have 1.5" supply and return lines. Upgraded from 3/4 HP to 1 HP a couple of years back figuring more is better. Turned out not to be the case. The increase water velocity was pushing sand and dirt through the filter. Took forever to clear the pool at start-up. Was going to buy a 3/4 HP...

    where does this plug in?

    I have an 97 Evinrude 200. I'll look when I get home this evening but going by the wire colors in the manual, the wires are ground, low oil, no oil and overheat.

    Solar pool heater water flow question(s)

    Not following you. I run mine in parallel with the main system. I’m running a sand filter with 3/4 HP pump. Used the old 3/4” supply line to the sliding board that is teed off the 1-1/2” supply line to the pool. Installed a gate valve on the 3/4” line to regulate the flow to control the...

    Fish Finders

    Seagulls are minnow and scrap chasers. If I see seagulls chasing bait I don’t bother getting out of the truck. Now if I see gannets on the hunt or diving it’s game on.

    Combining starting and deep cycle batteries

    In short no. The switch is to divide the charge from the motor between two batteries. It does not control what device is wired to which battery

    Just finished moving my boat from a tandem Loadrite roller that it sat on for 20 years over to Loadrite 5 Star aluminum bunk. You need to get the boat up and the rollers moved outboard if possible. Get the bunks to narrow you have issues centering the boat while loading Increase the height of...

    McCulloch Leaking Filter Bowl

    Call them..... Most common "automotive" rubbers (Viton, Nitrile, EPDM) could care less about ethanol. It's the formulation of the now 40 year old fuel lines and gaskets that get people in trouble.

    150 EXEOM Choke solonoid picture.

    No, the solenoid didn't fail. Too many years in electronics manufacturing to have any faith in a solenoid once the windings are burnt. It's only a matter time..... Replaced with OEM switch and aftermarket solenoid.

    150 EXEOM Choke solonoid picture.

    Mine did the same thing last Spring It just quit working. Upon further inspection found the coil had overheated and melted the epoxy as yours did. Traced it back to a sticking key switch. Replaced the switch and primer. Everything was back to normal. Fast forward to this year. Had to...

    Lift OR Floating Dock

    Two primary reasons…no bottom paint to deal with and the weather/tides, but let’s start with what Bay are we talking about and what direction is that facing? Local flood stage? You say protected but what is its proximity /orientation to open water? Surges are amplified in closed in areas How...
