    Kill Switch Works... for only one engine.

    Swap those two round connectors on the back of your switch, and see if the problem moves to the other engine. Not sure if your kill switch makes the connection, or breaks the connection, in order to kill the engine, but it sounds like it is stuck in which ever position lets the port engine run...

    What the heck did I get myself into?

    I find it hard to believe that a station with paid attendants can sell their gas for the same price as a station with 20 self service pumps. Not to mention the wait. Been a long time since I drove through Jersey, used to do it every month or so. Let's say you have an island with 4 pumps, does...

    Not my day, lower unit

    You say backed up, and then you say dragged. How much of the 200 feet was backing, and how much going forward? How bad did the pavement look? Dragging will mostly hurt your pride, backing can be expensive if the skeg digs in.

    is cup holder hole same size as rod holder?

    They make plastic and metal combos. Make sure you get the metal. Gemlux would be a good starting place.

    Does New Jersey still not let you pump gas into your own car? How about your boat?

    Water in middle

    If you have the white plastic through hulls, any one of them is subject to crack or break off at any time. One that is more forward would be more likely to be out of the water on plane, and underwater, at least part of the time, on the drift.

    OK, let’s see the jacks, and cordless half inch impact wrenches that everyone carries to change these tires.

    208 Adventure Top end

    If it was only a short burst, why would it show 3.8 hours? And why does the log show tenths in the individual rpm ranges, but not 15.8 in the total?

    anchor/anger management

    Sounds like you are not a bottom fisherman, and carry your anchor in the locker, not on the pulpit. That's okay, until you lose power in tight quarters, but a lot more work if you start anchoring regularly, at which point you will love a windlass. Pics of pulpit would help. How do you...

    Bimini cover 94 tournament 192 screw??

    If the slide track is mounted flat on top of the gunnel, you need these in the track, and the eye on the bottom of your bimini frame goes in this piece. https://www.ebay.com/itm/172728276551?hash=item2837685647:g:r4wAAOSwX6NdNf3k If the track is mounted on the vertical surface, you need this...

    Starboard Low Oil Alarm - Where to Start

    In the OP, you said that the gauge went from full to half to alarm in 6 miles, which made me think you had a leak, since that's a lot of oil, if the gauge is accurate. While you are working on this, check to see if different oil levels you see in the main are accurately reflected on the gauge.

    What the heck did I get myself into?

    "In my opinion, buying a boat, sight unseen is as dopey as buying a house like that. It's madness!" We bought our house at the coast sight unseen, full price offer. Have not regretted it one minute in ten years. We were at a trade show in Tuscon, and our realtor told us all the laws were in our...
