Gstraub: I like it. I may start looking for those. Thanks to you and all who replied. RW

I’m sure this topic has been covered but I did a search and couldn’t find anything. Anyway, now that I’m 75 I find it more and more difficult to ingress and egress the boat with the one little step that’s built-in. I’ve seen a couple different versions of steps in boat reviews etc. and wonder...

So I took delivery of my new motor today and it came with a 13.5x15.

Thanks, is that normally stated as PxD or DxP?

So my new Honda 90 is on my boat! But it’s still in the shop. What’s the consensus as to the best prop? As a reminder, it’s a CD22.

So I just ordered a new Honda 90 (see previous post). I’m guessing ethanol will not be a problem. If Honda, or anyone else says I need to treat the fuel, I’m done.

Once again, thanks for the responses. After some researching and soul searching I’ve decided this job is above my pay grade. I’ll be looking for recommendations for a carb guy in the Seattle/Bellingham area. Im gonna fix it and sell it (the motor). Im getting a quote today for a new 100hp Honda...

Thanks for the responses. I had a “storage” dose of Honda fuel stabilizer in the tank when I “shuterdown”. If varnishing was/is the issue, the product is defective. I just filled the bowl with carb cleaner and I’m gonna let it stew overnight. If that doesn’t work, I’ll end up calling a mechanic...

So I got to my boat after 6 mo. Started it and discovered leaks at all 4 carbs. There is a silver disc about 3/4” dia. above the bowl that appears to be sealed except for a small opening which is where the gas comes from. I scratched my head for a day and the top three leaks miraculously fixed...

I’m sorry, did I digress?

I’m sure most of us know that it’s gonna be lingcod season. As the local boy I can show you where you WILL catch one.

How do I sign up?

So I’ve not been to a gathering before and was wondering how it works. If the event is for 2 or 3 days do we each have to pay for that length of stay in advance ? How does it work?
