FWIW- I have auto-sync with my two Honda 150's and some days they stay within 5 or 10 RPM and yet on other days they seem to keep chasing each other as the RPM keeps increasing. I'm not sure if it's the sea state conditions, the trim on the motors, boat weight distribution, or the side I got...

I also store the dive ladder inverted but without a bungee, and yes it can be easily deployed from the water. I also see that Armstrong now offers a swing option that makes it even easier to deploy and prevents damage if you forget to retract it, not to mention it can't fall off,

What do you consider a "go-fast" boat? Around my lake it's 80 to 200+mph and there are a lot of them out here. On some early morning weekends we will see 300 bass-boats pass by our house at 70+ mph in under 20 minutes On our Tomcat we prefer 17 to 22 mph for cruising. We have found that we...

Based on your subject title I initially thought you were custom renting out your boat :lol: When I use a tape measure, the 5 inch letter height seems good to me , but the 65 inch length just doesn't make any sense for 9 letters. If you use 9 'fat' letters that are as tall as they are wide that...

I just cannot accept Honda’s one-size-fits-all oil change interval. Honda 150’s outboards are used all over the world, from the arctic to the tropics. They take ungodly abuse in both commercial and third world county use, yet Honda recommends 100 hour oil changes across the board. I truly...

One C-Brat in need, another C-Brat comes to the rescue......Priceless!

My two cents and at the high risk of getting flamed- I have been using oil vacuum pumps for years with no problems. How much new oil it takes to get to get back to the full level will confirm how much you got out. [Edit- I like BrentB's OB tilting idea and will try that next time] My Honda 150...

I suggest calling Marc at Wefings Marine. He sells new floaton trailer's for Tomcat's and may know of a used one for sale if you are looking for used. (850) 670-8100

OMG- Getting old is not for sissies :shock: I just checked my trailer data plate and didn't realize it included the empty weight of 2000. It is also the identical model to yours and with EOH. Bottom line- When the four disc brakes kick-in on my boat trailer it really feels like I can stop...

That's exactly what I did. The boat and trailer are parked on a separate scale and together weighed 9300 lbs. Add 10% for tongue weight and the tow configuration is over 10K. My plan was to disconnect the truck but two semi's pulled up for the same scale. Do you by chance know your float-on...

deleted - repeat post

Only my port engine smokes if I leave both motors down :shock:

Some marina\'s prohibit power on loading so added electric winch

Raised EOH pump to top of frame to preclude \'expensive\' dunking. Also added 2nd spare tire

For two bucks and change I can easily see my 12 volt battery status from the cockpit or dock

Love my HD wireless rear camera. Nice to know what cockpit passengers are doing (or if still aboard)

Docking line is precut to preclude reaching prop and has loop for power on docking in windy conditions

I use a sailboat line lock/cam to secure docking line while underway

I install/add my side fenders through the windows using a marine tab and slot mount. Only takes seconds and no need to leave helm

Tool kit/step opened. Also note fender and float cushion for easy reach
