Thanks Mr. NCLakeGuy! I am emailing back in forth from your guy Elijah. Hopefully we can help me. Thanks I appreciate your help!

So...two weeks later my Mercury guy, Ken, never called back by "Friday afternoon". Guess he doesn't want to deal with me either. I'm beginning to feel like he doesn't want to deal with women? Yes I threw the female card out there. Anyway, took the boat out yesterday for a nice afternoon on...

Looks like it should slide out after you remove the straps? Something isn't right? Missing something?

Everytime we come in, before we clean the boat, we wash the inside and outside of the canopy with Dawn and fresh water. Really seems to help with spiders, birds and mold. Mold can really get bad if you don't get ahead of it down in FL. Then we spray Spider Away on the cables and lift. Sounds...

I use to have soo many problems with mine also. Like Semper said and jiggle the wires and it will work again. Then 20 min later, do the same. Rinse and repeat. PIA

the moderator removed the phone number I listed. These mods are on top of things! lol

Nice job Mr. Lake! Do you clean houses also? If so, give me a ring and ask for Jenny

you can go to Yamaha and compare engines side by side that might be helpful. Above is an example of a few engines

I've seen them used down here in SWFL for the mini pontoons. The ones that are about 8'-10' long that only holds a couple of people. They must be super lightweight.
