1500 hours is pretty easy to achieve on an outboard if maintained well. If you prop it for max RPM at WOT with a typical load on the boat, and then run it at or below 75% max RPM, it can last way...

The plastic pulleys are usually bonded to the bearings and though the bearings can be pressed out and new ones pressed in, I would not trust them to stay together. If either pulley is metal (not...

I strongly urge you to replace the tensioner pulley and idler pulley while you have the belt off. You can use generic parts from an auto parts store. I also recommend that you keep the old belt and...

Always loved that place, it's beautiful.
There's a similar structure called the Boldt Yacht House in Alexandria Bay, NY/1000 Islands (an easy and pretty 7ish hour drive from Winni) that's still in...

Mantus makes a great product. We have one of their swivels and one of their snubber chain hooks. We run a 73# Rocna Vulcan that's very similar to a Mantus M2 and we love it. We've spent at least 180...

I register my documented boat in NH, but I only put the stickers on, no bow numbers/letters. I'm not 100% certain I even need to register it in any state, but I do, just in case. I've been boarded by...

Shift interrupt switch could be the issue, and certainly worth a test (just activate the switch manually and see if the engine stops), but there are some adjustments that could also be off. The...
