    Water stains

    MaryKate on-off is the best at $29 a bottle.Lysol 2x toilet bowl cleaner $2.99 works 2nd best but at the savings you can do it twice.I use the Lysol.No rubbing or scrubbing needed.Charlie

    Water in the bilge

    Really??? an entire 1/2 ounce of water?? I am gonna guess you are a first time boater.....just a guess.Keep better track of your ice cubes when having a beverage because you are apparently dropping one EVERY TIME....btw .you should taste it to make sure its water to play it safe.Charlie

    At Wit's End--Yamaha F225 stalling out

    You "checked" the fuel water sep.....If you removed it ,you should have replaced it.If the vst was as dirty as you stated then that is telling you something.....I have never seen one as dirty as you stated. Did you replace fuel pumps??? I had same issue and replaced everything you have mentioned...

    Need a New battery ,got more for less at Wallyworld....I think

    The best batteries I have encountered were made by Fiat for Chrysler corp.They were in the recent Dart and some of the Jeeps.I worked in a dealership and the service dept would tow in Darts and Jeeps for non starting problems.The 1st thing the service techs would do is replace the battery prior...

    Need a New battery ,got more for less at Wallyworld....I think

    I have had ZERO luck with any interstate battery I have ever owned .Every one has failed in less than 5 years with absolutely no warning at all.Cranking on Monday and dead on Tuesday.If Interstate batteries were half price on sale I would still take a pass on them.Charlie

    This battery is by far the heaviest I have ever lifted.Waaaay heavier than a group 27 that it is replacing.

    Need a New battery ,got more for less at Wallyworld....I think

    Had to replace battery to crank a Mercruiser V8 and need a deep cycle/starting.I have had extremely good luck with Walmart batteries in any of my vehicles.I was prepared to get a group 27 with 775 mca for approx $100.Then I came across a group 29 with 865 mca that was a little less$$ .Its a very...

    f90 stalled twice this evening

    Its not the bend in the line.Change fuel water sep.Check the fuel that you poured out of the sep after it sits for an hour or so .You cannot tell if there is any water immediately.The old fuel will separate into layers.Change the fuel filter as well.If same issue, change out the fuel...

    Trying to decide between 3 older boats!

    I would hold off and KEEP LOOKING.Plenty of boats in your range for sale. Outboard is preferable,slow your roll and keep looking.Nothing of interest in what you have posted.Charlie

    2001 Chaparral 230 SSi vs. 2007 SeaRay Sundeck 200

    My view is much more simple.You want a newer boat because your 19 footer is too small.Do you really think a 20 footer is going to be much better for you size wise??? I doubt it.Charlie

    Yamaha serging

    I would do the fuel pumps.Fuel pumps are simple and inexpensive to replace.There is an expensive filter inside the vst tank.I would clean or replace it.Charlie

    Boat Paint

    I painted a MUCH larger aluminum boat with Interlux monopoxy enamel.This was a long time ago so not sure if same paint still exists.I actually painted a fiberglass boat as well.Both came out great.Highly recommend.Charlie
