    How many boats did you watch try to anchor and fail at you local fireworks display.

    Going to the fireworks show is a fun filled day for us. I love watching people that only get the boat out once a year attempt to anchor and/or raft up to watch the show. Last year it was a little breezy and was a high value entertainment event. This year there was no wind but still we watched a...

    Plug vs bilge pump.

    Since it is now our off season and boredom has set in and seeing a related left the plug out post I have a question. I have wondered this for a while and hopefully some rocket scientist can do the calculations. My bilge pump output is almost the same size as my bilge plug. What size pump does it...

    Tahoe Tracker parts

    Just relaying my experience. I have heard all the horror stories about BPS and the service/parts dept. I happened to be in Branson and needed a new bimini boot so I thought I would stop in and try to get the part number. The parts guy was very helpful and got it for me with no issues. I...

    Perfect Pass

    Has anyone installed this and not liked it? I am considering the upgrade for tubing mainly and some knee-boarding and skiing. The Stargazer system seems to be the one I want. My boat drivers have issues with holding a constant speed when towing me and I hope this would resolve that issue. They...

    Fourth of July Follies

    We had perfect weather for two fireworks shows on the fourth and fifth. The ramp etiquette was great so no entertainment there. I did have a great time watching all the folks attempting to anchor that had no idea how to do it. Most had the wrong anchor and others thought 20 foot of rope in 30...

    Moving Air

    I am adding a couple of blowers to circulate the air in my engine compartment and I was wondering. Is it better to push outside air into the engine bay or suck hot air out ? I am using two 4" bilge blowers.

    5.0 MPI vapor lock question

    I have all the symptoms of vapor lock on my 2008 5.0 MPI runs like a champ till you stop for a few minutes and then no start. Let it sit for a hour or two and it runs like a champ. If I open the engine compartment when I stop it never misses a beat. I have tried idling and running blowers that...

    Glides

    So I was reading another post and only saw one response to the question " Will plastic glides scratch/damage the hull? " I am considering this option and don't want to scar up a nice hull. We load and unload every weekend. I know it's the bottom and no one will see it but I am a little OCD about...

    bow roller to high

    My bunks and the bow roller are not adjustable. Is there a device I can add to the trailer to lift the bow of the boat about 6 inches before it gets to the roller? If I back in far enough to get the bow over the roller I am way above the guide ons and the boat floats off the sides of the back...

    5..0 MPI won't start back after sitting

    Well I thought it was a vapor lock issue and have been trying to repair it as such but now I am not so sure. Last weekend after running at cruise for a little while we stopped to swim. I didn't run the blower or let the engine idle and we swam longer than I thought we would. It was probably...

    tower racks

    I mounted my tower racks last night and was surprised how big they are. I think they make the whole package about 9' wide. Has anybody run into issues trailering with this wide of a setup? Maybe I should put the deeper one for the kneeboard on the starboard side. I will also mention I bought one...
