We have the 4016 helm from baystar I ordered the seal kit but find the plastic inside the pump was very ruff causing the seal not to stay in place It looks like the plastic burnt up or heated up ? Anyway the boat is 15 years old and had about 1500 hours on it Plus a few long distance...

Mercury 115 CT is a2.1 liter eng WOT about 32-34 mph At 4000 rpm about 20 mph 4 mpg Weight is about 360 lb It has the same lower unit as the 150 Hp so up to 30 mph it’s very similar to the 150 The 150 will shine at top end over 40 mph if you can find calm waters.

We just made reservations March 8-12 I think 4b Jim W

Colby on the Yamaha f115 this filter spins off lefty loose righty tightly It looks very similar Inside the filter there is a red ring that will float if there is water in fuel .Maybe filter was never serviced?. Basically the Yamaha 10 micron auxiliary filter does the water filtration .

When we had our cd 22 cruiser we bought a used bunk trailer from a Bayliner dealer for $1000 off course that was years ago .look into Craig’s list for a used trailer then adjust bunks to suit your boat . I’ve had 3 trailers for my CC23venture Each time getting a better trailer The last one was...

Colby doesn’t your Yamaha have a fuel filter built in that can be changed Also do you have a water / gas separator filter That filter looks like a fuel filter for a car or truck engine Was that the filter for the kicker motor ? We have had similar problems and replaced our water fuel...

We have the cc 23 venture one of the first ones so it was rated at 120 hp.So we had a 115 Yamaha on it when we purchased it in 2008. Great motor but when the mercury 115 CT came along I jumped at getting one. top speed Yamaha 115 32-34mph 5500-5600rpm cruising speed...

On the mercury 115 CT they use a 150 Hp lower unit so bigger gear case and prop so plenty of torque the only difference would be top end ,and I’m happy with 32-34 mph . The 100 ft of chain is there because that’s what came with my cd -22 years ago . I rarely anchor out so with the windlass it’s...

James I thought you were going with the Mercury’s maybe Suzuki gave better price? Actually Cayo Costa used to have docks you can stay at but are not floating docks like Caldesi island both state parks used to give a discount to over 62 retired Floridians Jim W

We went from 30 ft chain and 100 ft of 3 ply line to all chain 100ft This seems to be more then sufficient for the few times we anchor out in the Gulf We have a V 700 windlass It works all the time and holds our 23 Venture with no problem. If it gets to rough we use a snubber to take the...

I wonder how Evinrude will keep up with parts and warranty work now that they are no longer building these engines . My friend bought an older boat with a 200 HO E-tec motor Great running no fumes and very good power . He just put the boat up for sale so hope he can sell Jim W
