This is an ad and those are not permitted.
If this were a real nice guy, he would offer the lesson for free or a 6 pack of beer.

Good idea, but I have to ask if you would have referenced the thread if it wasn't Jimmy putting on the class?

Not a bad business idea,..........

But I think we already do that here for free for our brother GW owners.

And im sure if anyone of was close enough by the other, and they needed

some visuals, we'd help the along if posted pics didnt help.

....... Seasick is right, a 6-pack o' beer(or more :lol:) to share while

lending helpful information would be a kind enough gesture.

What a joke. $150 for what? For what he offers, you could ascertain in a shop manual or an hour at the boat yard.
$1200 for a day of showing people general maintanence...not a bad gig.
Go to B.W. or West and they'll show you for free.

LMAO. 150 bucks? Yeah, that sounds like a hell of a deal. Hahaha.

If he can pull that off there must be more suckas out there than I thought.

I agree, read the owner's manual and buy a shop manual, and look at your motors with the manual. Boat engines are not nuclear turbines.

I have no idea who Jimmy is so the answer is yes I would have referenced it regardless.

I guess he's getting slow :roll: .

For $150 he's smoking something, now for $50 it may be worth it for some.

Come up my way next fall and I'll show you how to do this stuff on an F225, free of charge. Actually, I won't be due for an impeller change til the following year. If you were in my area, I'd tell you to bring your boat to my place and I'd help you do it. BTW, there's good how to info on THT in the SIM vendor forum. There is one step that is glossed over on the F225 impeller change thread however. That would be pressing the sleeve down over the nylon spacer. You don't need the special tool that the shop manual calls for BTW. Just use the old sleeve (inverted) and the old base plate to push down on.

Every motor is different. Even if you take that class, you still should get a shop manual for your specific motor.
