    Stalls after idling for too long

    Was out this morning (finally got into some schoolie bass) and an issue that has been around for a while reminded me it was there. I end up running at low speeds/1400 rpms (no wake) for about 10 minutes boat runs fine (same at WOT and everywhere in between). I will fish then start up and move a...

    Overheat (poppit valve)

    Thanks for the info - had no clue there were anodes like that. Having a hard time finding on my s150txru, where are they located? I found two small anodes but not sure how to get to these.

    Water leaking into cabin - i think is fixed!

    I will take a few and have to add some another time when I open up the instrument panel or access panel in cabin. Forgot to take pictures when I did it. One of those things once you open it up will make more sense.

    Keeping critters out of the cabin

    I think some may have missed the point. I do not have an infestation or that many animals to deal with, I live in the suburbs. Main issue is ease of entry, if animal wants to get in it can chew almost anyhing, I dont have that problem I have an access problem (only once or twice) which is either...

    Picking up shade extension

    These fit my budget will see of they are too lightweight (dont plan to use in extreme wind), may give them a try and see how it goes (will drill hole in tube and pole holder to put a pin so they can't get pulled out) and same on top somehow.

    Ok All you '93-'96 Adventure owners

    I have I have a 1996, and have not done much to improve the looks, but pretty sure the glove box is/was the source of water leaking into cabin for me. I noticed I had an area that did not seem sealed well on the bottom of the box (hard to see but can feel with your fingers). Of try grab bottom...

    Water leaking into cabin - i think is fixed!

    I was getting water in the cabin from the helm area and also noticed I had some water (about two cups after a heavy rain and leaving uncovered which I dont do often) - enough to cause water damage eventually and some mold, and was likely what was helping the partition between cabin and helm...

    Keeping critters out of the cabin

    Two seasons ago something ate a hole and made a nest in my cushions (fixed them already), this year removed the cushions for the winter and left a roll of paper towels - something chewed on that (no damage). I even left those seed looking packets to keep mice out but I think these are squirrels...

    Foam tiles in lieu of berth cushions

    Good idea. Some of those rubber squares have an odor out of the box, I suggest airing them out for a few days if that is in an issue.

    Removing Cabin Bolsters...

    I just redid mine (track down my earlier post), and they were screwed through the fabric crease in the middle. I found a few easy and couldnt find others - I had to RIP the bolsters off and it was not easy (screws stayed in the fiberglass, and had to tear head of screw through the plywood base)...

    Boat Cover for my 208

    Th This is what I made, although I like your idea and look forward to seeing results. It works great for rain, havent had much time to test with snow as mild winter this year. I have an extension (can see t by peak) which created a long beam over the windshield and anothersnall support forthe...
