    Part For Sale 1966 Johnson Short Shaft 6HP outboard motor

    I have a 1966 Johnson Short Shaft 6HP. Motor runs great. I put a new water impeller in it last year and new lower unit gear lube. The shift handle was broken off when I purchaced it. I attached a piece of aluminum channel to what was left of the **** handle. Otherwise you need to remove the...

    Installing stereo on a boat.

    I would like to put a stereo on my boat. There are lots of choices. I've narrowed it down to a Kenwood marine media stereo. No CD player. But undecided on how many speakers. I think I would be OK with just 2 speakers. One up front and one in the rear. I don't need to "Rock out". Mainly to listen...

    Ordering outboard parts from www.nymarine.ca?

    Anyone ever order outboard parts from www.nymarine.ca? I ordered a new cowl gasket for my 1979 Evinrude Outboard. I paid the guy with my credit card and have not heard from him since. My emails are being bounced back to me as undeliverable. It's been about 5 days. I was skeptical about buying...

    Evinrude hose connection leaking

    I got a new house to use with my 1979 evinrude 6hp motor. But today on the water I noticed it was leaking a lot. I had to wipe down my boat and transom board. Had gas and oil residue. The connector looks good and it clicks in place. I didn't see an o-ring missing in the connector. Not happy...

    Hatch switches.

    Looking for switches to automatically have compartment lights come on when I open the hatch lid. Something like a refigerator door switch. Something like the photo here but needs to be normally closed instead of normally open. I don't have lights in place yet but am looking to add LED light...

    Installing Garmin EchoMAP 73 sv

    Well, I started to install my new depth finder. I got the transducer mounted and the bracket mounted. It was only 40 degrees F out. My fingers were freezing cold by the time I wrapped up for the day.

    Adding through holes for throttle & shift cables

    Late this summer, I added a second throttle & shift cable to my boat for a kicker motor. Right now the cables just sit on the back deck. But I want to hide them. I'd like to feed them through a tube in the back deck platform. I've looked at swimming pool hoses and fittings. Just not sure about...

    Transom Board material

    I want to bolt a board to the transom of my boat so I can add my 6hp kicker. The transom on my Alumacraft is too thick for the motor mount to go over. I only need about a 8" wide board to attach the motor to. I found a plastic board at a sailboat website that I would need a stainless steel plate...

    Adding a 79 Long Shaft 6 HP Kicker to my Alumacraft 165CS

    Ok. This spring I upgraded to newer boat. It's a 2006 Alumacraft Navigator 165 CS. Awesome boat and got a good deal on it. But after relying on my trolling motor to get around some local lakes that have 10 HP limits, I've decided I want to take my 1979 Evinrude Long Shaft 6 HP kicker from my...
