    Good question. Do you have two answers for the statements made - deck screws & sender screws in the tank?! Thanks!

    Fuel Tank Size

    100% agree with this! On a side note...screws always seem to be frozen in place and could potentially snap. How do you get around this and hedge yourself from snapping screws? asking for the betterment of humanity :)

Hourly rate for mechanics is kinda high. Some of the other places near me are $185/195 but I’ve also been going to this mechanic...

    Questions about Deck Drains

    I asked the same question to my marina. My deck drains are the old circa 2006 plastic pieces with the bar that runs across (all of the plastic bars are broken). The deck drain hoses are fine - not splintering or dry rotted BUT my twin 5 year old's love shoving sh*t down them. Long story...
