You can educate yourself but I think it's cheap insurance. They will have the moisture sensors and may think of things you do not during the inspection.

I had this issue every year. My solution was to use an 18" pipe wrench to remove the filter/bottom bowl, place the bottom bowl in a vice, and then use the pipe wrench again to remove the filter. I always lubed the o-rings but it always seized up. No sweat with the above tools though.

The only time I have ever had the problems you describe was when the antisiphon valve located inside the elbow fitting coming right off the tank began to malfunction. With the engines running, lean down and listen as close as you can to this valve. In my case I heard what sounded like...

I have seen that video before...that is some crazy skill and a lot of luck. The adage of 'old or bold but not both' applies here. Wow... I take motorcycle trips every two years and where I ride you would not be able to negotiate the turns on a Harley - you need pipe and peg clearance to turn...

I too liked the Tomcat for diving. I added the East Coast Plastics rail system for tank holders and it was perfect. The swim platform with ladder was great for getting our full suited. I think your idea would be fine for the C-22. Easy back-roll in and use a crab puller to haul our your rig...

As has been mentioned your engines are your friend. I would not put a load on the anchor roller and fortunately had installed bow cleats with chafe pad. I tie off to the bow cleat and try varying angles to the set to try to break it free. If all else fails and you have to cut, I would tie a...

Thanks guys! I definitely plan to continue to visit here. The 10 year warranty that came with the boat in 2008 of course dissolved with each successive sale of the company assets. Fortunately any warranty issues I had after the various company changes I was able to get directly from the part...

Napoleon's new owner hauled her away today. We just spoke a few minutes ago as he was approaching the east side of the Cape Cod Canal. To see her leave the yard for the last time was of course bitter sweet. For those who read my listing I was selling due to prioritizing more time to run...

You are definitely not the first or the last to make the mistake of cruising in rough seas. I had my own reminder a few years ago about the potential dangers of 'get-home-itus'. While a good reminder/teaching experience, in hindsight I would have sat tight and waited for calmer seas. It's...

Regency, 100', quad engine, air controls, aluminum.

I mounted my radar on a Seaview 10" aluminum pedestal as far forward as possible. Considering the beam angle of radar you don't need a wedge but I just liked the idea of having it closer to level while underway and opted for a wedge. This arrangement allows me to carry an inflatable dinghy on...

While not for Honda's I posted the following for Suzuki's: http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t= ... t=impeller It will give you an idea of the process. If you can follow instructions and carry 40lbs you can do it yourself no problem. I would definitely suggest buying the actual service...

Classic.... I used to email and call my nieces and nephews. They would eventually get back to me...I decided to sign up for FB to keep in touch with them. If I post a message - bam - I hear from them instantly. Ha ha! The funny thing is FB is not the latest and greatest thing - kids are...

My concern is how it will lie and coil in the anchor locker off the windlass...3 strand has always worked well for me and coils nicely.

Yeah instead of drowning or torturing 8 pound animals abandoned by irresponsible owners please do call animal control, local MSPCA, etc.

I'm sure you have flushed this out but you are sure it's not the adjustable trim limiter? One time my engines would not trim all the way up - soon figured out it was just the limiter that must have been bumped when I was futzing around on the platform.

Ha ha - I would not suggest pulling that prank at the bank! :lol:

Nice I mounted my bracket on the rails and it has worked well. Very secure even in chop. I also lock mine when away from the dock.

Count me in that group! Ha ha I have never once been asked to show my card. You can't work as a captain in Boston without it though so it's a necessary cost/hassle. I just had to renew mine. Hopefully the requirement will go away.... --Matt
