Took the 1998 Smokercraft 14/68 with a 25hp Merc that I am thinking of buying off my cousin. While out testing the boat/motor in Houghton Lake ( Mi. ) we ended up in either a Milfoil or Hydrilla patch. I slowed down as soon as I seen some weeds floating. When I tried to throttle it up, the...

1st time out with my boat, my cousin was with me ( 675lbs combined ). At full speed ( 15/60 Richline & 9.9 Merc ) we was able to hit 13 mph. I thought that was great and the boat ran level with my cousin in front. Then I wondered how fast the boat would go with just me in it. Well, that was a...

I just recently purchased an older Richline 1560 on an old TeeNee trailer equipped with a 2003 Merc 9.9hp 2 stroke. I paid $1350. I have invested another $150 putting carpet in the bench seats, new tires, trailer lights and wiring. So I'm in it for $1500. My cousin comes over and see's my ( new...

2003 Mercury 9.9 two stroke. Just bought the motor. Before I bought it, I asked the guy to start it up. There was no place for muff's, like I have seen before. Guy said it in-taked the water from the middle of the prop. Ok, so why no weed guard? I can see the prop nut. Do I have to use a 1/2...

I'm 53. I retired awhile back due to health and wife just retired. We went out and bought a couple fishing poles and I remembered how much I hated fishing on shore. 2 weeks later, I'm the owner of an old Rich Line 15' row boat. It came with a trailer that is just as old ( if not older ). Trailer...
