    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    I bought the aluminium replacement bolt but have not been able to remove the original bolt. The bolt has been painted over at the factory and I have concerned about putting too much force on the allen wrench. I don't want to break something trying to avoid a problem. How have others removed this...

    Saturn Inflatable Boats

    I do carry the Kaboat on the cabin top of my 22. I have several pictures but have forgotten how to add them and too late tonight. There is a picture of the 2009 Bellingham gathering with my boat and the Kaboat on top I have seen several times on the site, not sure who took it. I get the Kaboat...

    Saturn Inflatable Boats

    I have the 14ft kaboat. The big advantage is being able to use the 6 hp kicker as the dinghy motor. I can move the 6 hp from the CD to the Kaboat by hand when I can stand in shallow water, otherwise I use a lifting davit. It is very nice to be able to cruise in the dinghy at 10 mph. Only takes a...

    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    Thanks Pete for the information. I think my manual does have a picture of two anodes higher on the engine, but no description at all to explain what the picture is or exactly where. It has taken me several readings of this problem to realize that Tim has had two holes open next to bolts. The...

    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    Thanks Jim, I will be looking at this soon. I will have to look in the repair manual to see if those anodes are shown. I don't recall seeing them. I finally did a valve adjustment that took two months. One month to get the valve compression tool then after seeing what shims I needed...

    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    I have the Johnson 90 and I don't see any problems from the outside. Where online do you get the replacement aluminium bolt? I am also not familiar with the internal anodes, where are those? Thanks, Steve

    Travels with Kerri On and crew

    Hi George, Sounds like lots of flexible planning and sure to be fun. I have one question. During your travels and camping on the trailer how did you handle hot weather? The few trips we have done if it is still above 85 or 90 F after 9 or 10 pm, it is just too hot for us to sleep in...

    Bad Day on the C-Dory

    Never thought about being in danger from kelp on the anchor line! Could it pull the boat down enough to be dangerous? Glad you made it back without any major damage. Steve

If anyone would like to join us after returning from the Bay let me know. It looks like the winds are cooperating and only getting stronger in late afternoons. Hope...

    Yuma Az cruising possibilities

    Hi George, Sorry to hear about the bearing failure but glad you found it before getting out of town. I learned last summer how quick a bearing can cause a problem. I drove less than 10 miles and less than 40 mph and the hub had to be replaced. I hope you can get fixed without having to wait...

    Travels with Kerri On and crew

    Hi George, Sorry to hear you both got that bug. We have had the upper-respiratory bug around here which does not sound as bad. I have heard of a couple people with similar flue so hope we don't get that one. I have also been in the Coronado hospital. When you are sick, it is so nice when...
