Thanks all for this discussion. I have twin F80 Yamahas (2003), approx 800 hrs on them, not stored in water, religiously flushed after every trip. I looked in the Service Manual, it doesn't specifically mention to check or maintain them, but does show where all 5 anodes are located: 3 internal...

The people-count of Dora~Jean has been reduced to 2, just Alex and myself. My wife was requested to fly back East for a family commitment, she said to tell the group she will miss them but happy as well where she's going!

Just as another data point, I also have Yamaha F80's (2), Model F80TLRB. The manufacture date imprinted on the motor is 7/2002. So I guess like boats manufactured in July, they are considered the next year.

Jim/Kath, check's in the mail! Thanks again for organizing this great event. I'm going to attempt to do something different this year, I'm bringing a bike(s) along this year to give us a little more mobility. We will still go with the group to meals and other activities, just wanted to see more...

You can always remove the drain plug if it rains, that's what I do--but here in SoCal, that's a RARE EVENT.

Yes, easier to float your boat when unloading/loading at a ramp.

Dora~Jean is in for another week of fun! Thanks, Steve, Carmen and Alex

I almost hate to put this in print, might jinx it, but I've had my Wallas 1300 heater for at least 8 yrs, zero problems. I run it 5-10 times per year, use only Kleanheat kerosene, some is years old, doesn't seem to mind. It does all of the proper startup and shutdown sequences automatically...

My experience. I had an F-31 trimaran, 40 ft mast, previous boat to my CD-25. I trailered it to the Bahamas with a group of 5, same boat. Before we left home, we all discussed the possibility of a lightening strike and what gear/mods we should do to our "plastic" boats for safety. Decided to do...

All good suggestions. I have "twin" engines on my boat. I only have one Group 24 battery for each engine. I have no other battery for a "house" battery. I have a 1-2-Both switch that selects which I'll use for the house battery for that trip, or may switch to the other battery if we drain the...

My schedule for that week is changing faster than my underwear... We have another round of Eastern guests arriving late the week before and staying 10 days. The current plan is to go camping Friday (7/31) thru Monday (8/3), then perhaps head to Catalina on Tuesday and stay thru Thursday. So for...

I too have had my leaf springs break, never had that happen on any of the other 14 boat trailers I've owned for past 40 years. Mine happened on my way "up" the Grapevine (Interstate 5 North before Bakersfield). I have always washed down my springs and brakes along with the boat with fresh water...

Boris, thanks, but I didn't sleep well last night. Rechecked my receipt from 4th July w/e (actually 5th, 6th, 7th) and it was $15/day -- my brain must have still been in 2014...not unusual :-). In addition, the parking booth personnel seem to be very diligent and honest, they take a fair amount...
