This filter has about 25-30 hours on it since I replaced it. I should add that the boat is always washed and flushed when we return but the location of the filter for a saltwater edition boat seems to be kinda crazy.
Where do you guys have your water separators mounted? I live in Florida and use the boat in saltwater, but it seems like I'm changing fuel filters more than needed. Bought the boat back in Feb and it currently has 64 hours and 3 water separator filters under its belt. The reason I have changed...
Standard copper will work for a while but the wire with the tinning will out last and resist corrosion better. And since the boat is used pretty much exclusively in salt water, I really didn't want to run wires a second time. My last boat trailer ate about 3 sets of lights before I moved them up...
I did the lighting myself and it really wasn't bad, most expensive part was buying the marine wire. Ended up buying 50' from west marine for about $40. The LED rope lights can be cut into any length you want, this was (I think) just a 20' section and did everything I wanted. The soldering of the...
It's for sure they hub. They pulled the prop off and the rubber is all torn up. I guess they ship the prop out to have the new hub pressed. I doubt I'll have any time to go out this week anyway so it's really not hurting. Plus I can probably get my honey-do list checked off.
One thing I did...
Definitely didn't hit anything and I know its a wear and tear item, just stinks that it happened on such a new boat. I baby this thing, it gets used in saltwater so it gets washed and flushed inside and out after every trip. I'm lucky we were only about 20 minutes into the ride before it crapped...
Had the boat now for a few months....still love it, hopefully we can get out more now that summer time is here. I did have a mishap on Thursday just before the holiday weekend. Took the family on the water just cruising around and all the sudden felt like the prop fell off. Killed the motor...
Thread revival.....I just came across the drift sock or drift anchor depending on where you look. My wife and I were always accustomed to letting the current/wind take us on a floating booze cruise/fishing trip in our old center console. since this is our first pontoon, I've noticed it likes to...
Just wanted to update you guys. So far we have about 15 hours on it, and every one of them has been great. I also learned real quick about pontoons and following seas.....My face when that wave came crashing over top of us must have been priceless....lesson learned lol
I tried to do some...
Yeah its upside down in the picture. I just wanted to show the hinged side. I'm pretty sure you are right about how it works but let me tell you my shoes say otherwise lol. That fuel shoots back quickly... The first time we ever filled it, it worked. then the next time it kept spraying back. And...
It's at the very end of the fill neck. Every time I tried to fill the boat it would splash back and I couldn't fill it unless I unscrewed the entire gas cap/ neck assembly and filled thru the big hole.I could always snap it back on if this causes harm or it doesn't help. just seeing if anyone...
Going to revive this thread...I have filled my 2016 that has the long filler neck and had the splash back problem. I noticed I could unscrew the entire cap and just fill thru the big 2" hole. When pulling out the entire assembly I noticed the little spring flap on the end and just pulled it off...
