    w/s washer nozzle

    Mine broke a few years ago. I was going to replace it but it looked like you have to remove the wiper motor to get at it. It still directed spray to the windshield just not through the wiper blade - it cam directly from the nozzle. I decided I would wait until the wiper motor had to be replaced...

    Winterizing fresh water system

    I don't bypass the hot - I drain the hot water tank then pour 7 gallons on anti freeze in and run the faucets hot first and then cold until the pink flows through. In the spring I flush it all out for a few hours and then run some bleach through the system to clean it out. I don't use the water...

    Documentation Question

    From a purchaser point of view - i think the documentaiton act as in the way a title does- I believe it ensures the purchaser a clear title and that there are no liens against the boat. Other than that I believe there are some international benefits if you are by a border.

    Bone Head Thing

    Many years ago - pre grady days I had a 19 foot Mako. We cruised to Barstable harbor, tied the boat to the town pier and went up to get something to eat and drink at bar downtown. When we came back a few hours later the tide had gone out and to our surprise the dock we tied to was stationary...

    F225 Oil Change Questions

    Just finished changing the oil on my 2 F225s and I continue to have a challenge with the oil filters. I use an electric pump to remove old oil through the dip stick and it is easy and not a drop of oil. Then comes the mess. I use an adjustable wrench to loosen the filter because a strap can't...

    Shore Power

    You said that the outlets did not work the first time - once you get the green light per the first 2 replies you need to check the GFI outlet in the bathroom - the cabin outlets are linked to it on my boat - so if it is tripped the other outlets will not function

    New BFT Regs out today!!!!

    Every fish that I have caught has been 55-65 inches. This will pretty much shut out the angling class using stand up gear. Not sure how effective it is to telease a 60 inch fish after a 45 minute fight. I'm not even sure how you will get an accurate measurement while leaving the fish in the water.

    C-MAP or NAVIONICS?

    I have 2 units - My Furuno uses cmap and my Lowrance use Navionics. I like having both - I do not see a big difference. I would go with the one you have had so you are already familiar with the features
