2001 merc 15 four stroke. The carb was leaking fuel from the top and would flood the engine. Replaced the carb with a new carb. It ran fine for a day and started leaking fuel from the top again. Any ideas?

I saw a video of someone sucking the oil out of a small four stroke outboard during an oil change. It allowed them to do it on the water and not have to use the oil drain plug. Does anyone have one of these?

What size pvc pipe do I need to make a minnkota trolling motor tiller extension?

2001 merc 15 hp four stroke. I'm wanting to replace the fuel lines underneath the cowling. What size is it?

05 merc 15 four stroke. The carb was rebuilt last fall, ran fine for a while. It wasn't run for about three months and now it's acting like the float is stuck. There is fuel leaking from the carb and it floods when trying to start. Should I just go ahead and rebuild the carb again?

I'm going to cut some MDO plywood and some non treated 2x4's for some simple floors on a 1542 jon. I'm wanting to paint them with something that will seal well and last a while. It doesn't have to be pretty, but it can't be white. I'm thinking maybe kilz grey oil base primer? Or is there a...

I need a new 12v foot control bow mount trolling motor. Which brand is the best for the smaller ones?

I'm looking for a boat with this layout, except no middle seat and no grab bar. I also want a floor and a bow mount trolling motor mount. 15 feet long, at least 48" wide, flat bottom (not a semi v). It needs to have the extended mid or high deck like in the pic, as well as split rear pod seats...

Is there such thing as a tiller steer 15hp outboard that has electric start, power trim, fuel injection, and a 15" shaft from the factory?

Do any companies sell bare hulls with no boxes, floors, flotation, paint, etc?

I don't have much info, seller says it's an alweld, but I don't think it is. Apparently it's 16'x6', 2014, that's all I know. Any ideas?

Has anyone ever had body work done on an aluminum boat? A boat I'm looking at is a deep v with a big dent in the side, all the way to the top rail. I was curious to see if anyone had ever had any big dents straightened out and how much it cost them.

Does anyone know anything about Lowe Lunker boats? I'm looking at a mid 80's model that I wanted to gut, then turn in to a duck boat/brushpile hauling boat. I've never heard of the boat and wanted to get some opinions on it.

Has anyone added electric start to a pull start motor? I'm thinking about doing it but was wondering how much of a pain it would be.

I thought I read somewhere that a lot of guys take the factory manual tilt off outboards after they add an aftermarket power trim like the cmc unit. Basically letting the motor swing freely, enabling them to pop over logs and the motor will slide over the log but still fall back in to place once...

Do any of you run one? I have a 15' flat bottom (no tunnel) with float pods/sponsons, 25 hp Yamaha four stroke, and a trim unit that doubles as a jack plate. I'm wanting to get the motor as high as possible and was wondering if a plate would help. Any suggestions?

I've got a 25 four stroke with a tiny bend in the prop shaft. It's so small you can barely see it when you look at it from behind and spin the prop. No vibration that I can tell. How much of a bent prop shaft can you get away with? The lower unit oil was a little milky when I changed it.

I just picked up a powrtran tilt unit (kinda like a cmc). It has a giant dual button for the controls. Is there a way I can modify my tiller to change the throttle with one that has the thumb control for the trim? Motor is a 2000 Yamaha 25 four stroke.

This is something that I've been trying to fix for a while. Theres a rattle when in gear and running. Can't figure it out. It sounds like it's coming from the flywheel. But it's new. It's not internal. It's more of an annoyance at this point, but I still want it gone. Any suggestions or...

I'm looking for some tips on strengthening the transom on my 1542 alumacraft. Anyone have any pics?
