Guys, I'm playing with some ideas on a rocket launcher and need 3 clamp-on adjustable rod holders that fit 1 1/4 inch diameter to play with.....I don't really want to pay retail for something I'm gonna be replacing with custom welded ones in the near future... If anyone has some I could borrow...

Need some help or advice on an 89 Yamaha 200……replaced my water pump impeller about a month ago with my stepson assisting…..I’ve probably done a hundred of these over the years so no problem……finally got around to test running the engine today and found no reverse. Pulled the LU and reset the...

Came in from fishing the other day and can't raise the motor. I can hear the trim motor engage when I activate the switchs (both helm and on engine) but doesnt raise or lower( it's trimmed up about a bar). Engine is an 89 Yamaha 200 EFTX 2 stroke. Can anyone help with some troubleshooting or...

My boat ( '89 25 SportCabin) collects water in the forward bilge and it doesn't drain out when on plane as some have mentioned. I want to install a forward bilge pump, the hand pump or the drill pump gets tedious. I've pumped up to 5 gallons out after a week of heavy rain and not tending to it...

A warning to the faint of heart......This is NOT Kevin's bildge !!!! The dirt is real!!! I spent last winter getting the boat seaworthy and running after the PO passed away and the boat sat for almost 4 years....this year is for cleaning and adding goodies. The dirty bilge was ignored as it is...

As I have off work thru the end of the year and the weather here in MD is passable I'm getting a jump on my project list. Started out by adding 8' mid-ship cleats for spring lines, picked the spot with care, drilled out, epoxied and bedded with 4200. Used some scrap 1/2 in starboard for backing...

Well, they pulled and blocked the 'Sandpiper" today, so now its time to start working on "the list" I've been putting together over the course of the season. Last winter was spent getting her seaworthy after spending almost 4 years on blocks. It was a challenge but it all worked out and I...

Got tired of the mess and the damage to both rods and mattress. Couldnt find what I wanted retail so decided to make my own. Started by cutting a template from cardboard, test fitting a couple times and then transferred to some old luan I had laying around. Found about the third test fit that...

My neighbor was hosting a vet wounded in Iraq and currently recuperating at Walter Reed AMC, and his family. They have been living in a small hotel/apartment at the hospital since January. Kevin (neighbor) asked if I would be willing to take them for a ride in the Parker. Jeff, his wife and 4...

Splashed !!!!!!! Beautiful day today....Special thanks to my friends who helped... Got Sandpiper off the blocks and on a trailer, dropped her at Matapeake State Park on Kent Island (nice ramp but a long backup downhill). Sandpiper ran like a top, Bay was 2+ foot wind driven chop till I got in...
