Save the tails, they look great on the radio antenna of your car! :P

Just solder an piece on to it and keep on fishing. There is nothing wrong with the breaker. =P~

What size wire should I use for lights? #-o

Can some give me a link to the "transom ladder" plans? I forget the guys name who made it, but I've got to have one of those, it's the best I've seen for a small boat. [-o<

Try moving the winch to the top of the post and put the bracket under it with a v roller. I'll bet it will work. Get a short piece of chain to use for a safety. :wink:

The batteries need to be twins, not cousins. I've read, that it works if the batteries are the same age and brand. =P~

I've seen the seat bases made from some "white cast metal" at Walmart, and some made form "stainless steel". I'm assuming the SS is the best but, both have the plastic bushing that you push the stem into. I've read that there is a lot of problems with this bushing wearing out quickly. Is this...

Thanks Captain! I think I will get the Service Manual it will save me more than 50 bucks if I only use it to put an impeller in.

I've got "Norton" but, have had no trouble! :shock:

I don't know the year Jim, but the Serial Number is 4273176. Can you tell the year from it? I'll try Mercury! :oops:

Where can I get an "Owners Manual" for my 4.5 hp Mercury? :|

I got a transom mount "Minn Kota 55lb" , the book says I need a 60A breaker. Where can I get one? It also says I need a battery with no less than 105 amp hr rating. The deep cycle batteries I've looked are rated in "cranking amps" and "minutes @ amps". I'm so confused, but I know where to go...

I'm going to put my batteries under the bow seat in my 14' Sea Nymph. Question, should I try to shim them up to level? The boat is not level when it's on the water or the trailer. Will one side of the plates get dry and damage the battery if I don't level it? :roll:

Yes, I can buy male plug (which is cheaper than an on-board charger). What I was wondering is, if the wire would be big enough. It would be easier than opening the battery box to hook up. :)

Can I take a file and sharpen the edge of my prop, it has no nicks but is getting pretty dull. Is this a bad idea or should I just replace it? :idea:
