    Condensation/water in oil?

    Same issue when I run on my 140-acre lake at the cabin. The only way to get the condensation out is to run it 1/2 hour wide open to clear it out. Silly to do on a small lake. I'll take it out on Lake Superior for a run to the apostle islands, about a dreaded "three-hour" tour or more. I run it...

    Let the first liar say they have never done this.

    I have to honestly say that I haven't. I do fish but not as much as alot of people. I don't use that kind of reel though.

    Midship bilge does not drain

    Ok, you are talking about the deck itself. You could put some hoses on those drains and route them to a fitting above the water line. Just don't tie them into the bilge pump lines, you will have to install a new fitting on the hull. Unless someone removed the hoses before the fitting may be there.

    Midship bilge does not drain

    Not sure if there is a pump there, if not there should be. If it’s draining slowly over time, there must be a pump someplace. I really think you should have a qualified tech look at what you have going on, for one, find out where the water is getting in. Seems you should get to know your boat a...

    Picture of my prop - what’s going on here?

    I’ve had many props off at the shop, with that type of sleeve. The only ones I’ve seen broke are ones that hit something. One of my own did that when I was out on Lake Superior, heard a thump and the wheel jumped a bit, checked the prop and it was fine. Must have bumped a deadhead or the like...

    Garden hose to rinse the boat and trailer

    Depends on where your outdoor faucet is. You will fond 25’ a bit short When walking around the boat. 12’ boat, loop around the boat and it’s to short. 50’ will get you there, or 2-25’ hoses. I had a collapsable hose, junk. When you press the nozzle it wanted to shrink right down. I’m on city...

    Boat wiring question

    You could install a negative buss bar in the area, then install the negatives to that. It makes for a cleaner install and easier to service. Abyc don allow more than 3 wires on ant terminal anyway.

    Show is a pic of the taken apart mess you got going on. Chokes aren’t to awful hard to set up, just a tad of fine tuning sometimes depending on the weather in your area.
