On our 2004 carbed BF 90A with Binnacle control the choke was operated by pushing in on the ignition key. Push in while cranking for choke. Once it fires off, tap it a couple more times to keep it running until it is warm enough to run on it's own.

I got some SS Allen head bolts that are longer than what comes with the riser from McMaster Carr. I used CVG Fir 2x2 and counter sunk them so the bolt and nut would not protrude. I even drilled some drain holes so that water would not collect in the countersunk holes. I painted the wood with...

Hey Tom I think that was me. This is about like the one that I used. https://www.ebay.com/itm/234078919655?h ... SwMHpg5GVd Have been using them for about 5 years and no problems.

We saw a good example of why one should be careful about which mooring bouys they choose to tie yesterday afternoon at watmouth Bay on Lopez. A 30' motor yacht tied to one of four bouys that are marked private. The wind came up and I saw the buoy break loose. I layed on our horn and tried...

Finally,the question is does the Raymarine MFD have the processing capability to handle all this data and display it? Remember AIS was just coming on the scene in 2005. One would have to read the op manual to see if the unit could process AIS data. Next, would the unit be able to process the...

Our Boat has 2004 Raymarine C80 with radar and autopilot and was also originally set up by EQ Marine. Our gps was originally supplied through a Raynav 300 GPS Plotter. The loss of the satellites over time that the raynav300 was usine made it obsolete. I replaced it with a Raymarine E32042...

The permatrim has been claimed Thanks

If anyone needs a permatrim for a Honda 90 we have one we want to find a home for. This would have also fit our new Yamaha but the holes would not match up with the Yamaha. The reason I am not going to try and sell it on ebay, is that when mountng a new one it is necessary to drill up through...

Colby Have you removed the press in caps for maintenance since you installed them? I am just wondering how hard or easy they are to get off without damage. The bearing buddys work the same as far as installation and removal. I have found that sometimes I have really had to get brutal with them...

I have the oil filled hubs on a trailer for my Simmons Sea Skiff 18. They have worked flawlessly and are now about 12 years old. I took them apart once about three years after I bought the trailer just to inspect the bearings and they were pristine. As long as I can see clean oil in them I...

July 4th, 2020 at Sekiu. They put on quite a show. We couldn't have picked a better place to Social distance for the 4th of July

That's a 14 " Greenling in this big boy's mouth. I caught 2 more Lings with the same greenling

Also, last week I installed momentary wiper switches. One each for port and starboard side that I can reach easily while traveling and another one on the port side that the passenger can reach easily. This is something that I think about doing every time we start taking spray across the...

Yesterday I made a map of all the fuses and breakers in our boat. They are spread all over the boat. In both the port and starboard lazarette, on the overhead shelf above the helm and behind the helm. I now have a quick reference to where the fuse or breaker is for each circuit in the boat and...
