    Biiiiiig Fish Story

    This morning's Peninsula Daily News had a wonderful story about a man from Edmonds, WA who was fascinated by stories and videos of folks catching fish, even Halibut, from Kayaks. He took lessons, bought a Kayak, practiced fishing in Lakes and May 14 he made his dreams come true. After a long...

    If you are using your boat regualry using E-10 fuel is not a problem. It's storing the boat with the Ethanol laced fuel that causes the problems. Millions of vehicles use E-10 regularly without problems. Enjoy the trip and look for the cheapest fuel!

    Trailer tires - I don't get it.

    Reddog, I agree with your assesment of ST tires completely. As far as the warranty, I have a different take. Having switched to the "Dark Side" (RVing) a few years ago, I became the owner of Goodyear Marathons. After descending Siskiyou Grade into Ashland OR, the LR blew out and lost it's...

    I've heard of a boy in a bubble....

    I think the "craft" should have been scuttled after the rescue. Some people need to be rescued from themselves!

    Trailer Tires

    Mark, If one side of the tire is wearing, it is an alignment problem. My local body shop has an alignment rack and it's money well spent to have someone check the alignment specs on the trailer while loaded. Alignment is adjusted by bending the axles. Having switched to the Dark Side (RVing) in...

    EQ Marine ???? Update from Pacific North West Area Please

    I too drove that boat at a Sequim Bay CBGT. The Suzuki should be a great match. When I drove the boat it had an E-Tec and the boat seemed light in the stern. Good luck and safe voyages.

    Honda 135 HP engine shutdown-intermittent

    There is an overheat protection feature built in to the processor. These engines have 4 temp sensors. It only takes one bad one to kill the motor. BTDT. There is a test procedure for the sensors. I missed a trip to Lake Powell waiting for a new one.

    Trailer tires - I don't get it.

    Here's a 16" Load range E Goodyear Marathon: I replaced all four with Michelin XPS Ribs, LT rated with a steel belt in the sidewall. At least Goodyear paid $1300 for the tire, service call and body damage to my trailer! I'll pass on ST Rated tires, especially those made in China. The testing...

    Trailering on Vancouver Island

    Jeff, We've towed to the North end of the island 3 times. The first time we left the trailers in Telegraph Cove and that worked well. The next two times, we stored the trailer in a locked yard in Port McNeill. The yard is owned by Steve Jackman, who with his father, own the Fuel Dock and...

    Thoughts on RAM 1500 Eco Diesel

    I've never been a Dodge, or Fiat, fan. But that's just behind the Twins vs Single debate! Something new in the mix is the 2016 Nissan Titan with a 5.0 L Cummins V6. A lot stronger engine and higher towing capacity. http://www.nissanusa.com/trucks/2016-titan/

    Installing inline transfer relay switch for inverter.

    Gene, Here's how we wired our TC. One panel handles shore power only loads like the refer, water heater and battery charger. The other is for Inverter pass through loads (all outlets). I left one half of one duplex outlet connected to shore power to power a dehumidifier. We used an Outback...

    Olympic Peninsula Non-Ethanol fuel

    If any of the Brats on the Olympic Peninsula are looking for some non-ethanol fuel for your Winter lay-up, the Co-Op in Sequim has Non-Ethanol Premium. John Wayne Marina has 87 Octane Non-Ethanol for about $0.50 cheaper but isn't wild about running to the pump to fill your 1 gallon lawnmower...
