It WILL happen. :( More boat and engine manufacturers need to be looking at alternative power just like the auto folks are doing. I'm not particularly fond of Scout boats, but at least they're exploring hybrid technology. http://www.scoutboats.com/press5.html I believe they had a...

That's a nice rig prodiver. :) Call me crazy, but I think the seat height and lack of a full height bow rail is a huge safety issue. I have three kids (6 mos., 5 and 9) and there is no way I would let them ride up there. Take a wave the wrong way and over they go. Be careful.

Yamaha DID paint their SS props black at some point. I'm not sure what their reasoning was but I have heard some people say that it was done to deter theft. Most thieves will pass right by a black prop thinking that it's AL...

I could be crazy, but when I was last in a GW showroom I checked out both the 208 and the 228. The cabin on the 208 actually seemed larger...

Before you go changing anything with the transducer, motor height, etc., pull that prop to make sure you don't have a spun hub.

Look at the arrow on the bottom of the pump housing in this photo:

Re: bracket This is an annual thing? Are you repainting the entire bracket or just hitting spots of it?

Is that Pettit a 2-part (epoxy) paint? Looks great!
