    Can prop torque lock steering on rapid acceleration?

    Howdy all, slow time of the year for me since my season is over, I hope a few of ya'll might have some time to discuss this issue with me. While I got my boat winterized I had the shop look at my steering for the second year in a row. My reported problem is that with the wheel turned hard...

    Almost squished my wife today

    Was loading the boat today and I almost pinched my wife between the bow and the down truck tailgate. :eek: I dropped her at the dock so she can back the trailer down while I pull the boat on by applying some power, then laying off the gas and raise the motor and I usually ride it up on the...

If you see a possibly funny thread title post it here and lets see how it goes. I dont suggest we make fun at anyone or offend members, merely see the...

    06 Tahoe Q4 prop for a better holeshot?

    Hi guys, I am asking this here in the Tahoe section instead of the prop section because I am looking for personal experience. I hope to find another 2006 Q4 SS 4.3 (carb) 190hp captain who has found a prop that improves the holeshot and gets a wakeboarder out of the water and up on plane...

    Wakeboard fins

    When I got my wakeboard the fins were not attached, you are supposed to attach on your own. My first thought was that you add one at the rear of your board, so only put on one. Then we had a lefty, so I ended up swapping it around from one end to another. But I got lazy and left it off for the...

    How do you stow your tow ropes?

    The number of ropes are piling up, wakeboard, ski rope and kneeboard, not including towables. I had been throwing them under a seat, but as I look at the strap that comes with the ropes there is a brass grommet on each one. So is anyone using the grommets to maybe hang them for a day of water...

    iBoats member July 4 GTG at Lake Belton

    Having spent last year cruising Lake Belton, TX for the first time, I think the July 4th weekend was the busiest timeframe for sport boaters. I am looking to see if any watersport fans are interested in a get together (GTG) that weekend, maybe near Temple Lake Park? Post up if you are interested.

    Cover for 2006 Q4 w/ factory tower

    I am looking for a decent cover for the winter, the bikini cover really doesnt keep the water (and mildew) out. I had it on for about 45 days and popped it off, only to find mildew all over the interior. I have the 19.5' Sport Q4 with an 190hp IO. I am looking for a cover that will fit well and...

    Motor sounding loud

    Took my baby out for probably the last time for the year after sitting for about 6 weeks, it was a nice mid-70 day in Central Texas. It was a nice run and everything went well, but for some reason it sounded much louder coming from under the engine cover while at WOT. I have a 2006 V6 Mercruiser...

    You would think....

    ...that someone who has spent every evening on iBoats since April after he bought his first boat would know better?? To set the stage, my crazy antics during the 09 summer boating season include: I forgot my plug after launch, boat filled 3' before catching the problem; tweaked three props...

    Keel damage, what do you think?

    New boat owner and I've only had it since April, I am a second owner. I have had her out about 10 times or so and I never noticed this damage. Its in a spot not in plain view and you really have to get up on close. It looks like the bow hit rocks or something and the crack goes up and down the...

    Kill Switch

    When the boat dont start on the ramp, be sure to check the kill switch before you do anything. Anything like pull to the top of the ramp and spend an hour diagnosing what the problem could be. Especially if the rig ran fine the last time and all you did was wipe down the boat real good in prep...

    Tahoe gear

    I hope I am not out of line here, but I wanted to pass on a note to other Tahoe owners that TahoeSportBoats.com, the official Tracker Marine site for Tahoe boats, is having a big sale on Tahoe gear. I picked up a polo and short sleeve shirts for me and a polo for the wife, each shirt was about...

    Hydrofoil SE Sport Clip

    Howdy, a newb skipper and a lurker, here goes my first post. I know some folks are not big fans of hydrofoils, but checking to see if anyone else has seen this. I have a slow plane problem and porposing that I wanted to try to reduce a bit, but because of my transom design I didnt think tabs...
