My NC registration sticker keeps falling off because of the abrasive texture of my hull. Anyone else ran into this problem? What sort of adhesive would you use to make it stick? Thanks

I bought a 2004 Nissa 25 HP outboard yesterday and the guy who sold it to me said he had read about converting this motor to a 30 HP. I did a little reading (see link below) and it seems pretty simple- there is a restrictive gasket that limits the flow of fuel into the carb, removing this will...

Kid pulled up in this home made pontoon last week. Pretty awesome! Blue Parrot on Lake Norman is a GREAT spot BTW.

So I have searched high and low for a (relatively) late model 25 HP motor to replace my 15 HP because I have added a lot of weight with my on-going modifications. I have had virtually no luck whatsoever, seems that people are holding on to their 25 HP 2 strokes these days. Thus, I am now...

Looking for a good paint to stick to small chrome pieces. I really only need to paint the bow light and a few other small pieces of hardware. Was thinking about maybe some acrylic paint from Michael's or Hobby Lobby.. Let me know what you have used in the past. Thanks!

https://charlotte.craigslist.org/boa/3678095303.html Just spoke with the owner who says he bought it in 1993 and repowered with the 225 johnnys up from 150s. Older guy who is sick now and has taking excellent care of the boat from what he says- new lower units in both motors, washed/waxed...

I have a 2002 Johnson 15HP 2 stroke short shaft with low hours looking to trade for something a little bigger. The motor belonged to my grandfather until about 6 months ago. He took excellent care of it and only used it as an emergency kicker on his fishing boat and occasionally on a jon in...

What is the difference? Thanks

I am thinking of putting in a fold-down bench in the rear of my 1542 and wanted to get some insight on how this may interfere with steering. I really want to use the bench instead of a seat, so that two people can sit back there if necessary and because i like to move around. I have measured...

I've been following this forum for a while but now its time to build one for myself. I have really appreciated viewing everyone's work and plan on taking many ideas from others here! This boat is a 1542 Sea Ark that originally belonged to my Grandfather. It is all welded and solid as a rock-...
