Re: Sole materials

I don't seem to be able to pull off uploading pictures to my post's. Can anyone walk me through it or is there a spot on the site to explain it? I have however been able to cut and paste the images but it has been over riding my posted remarks.

Re: T's GF12

I have a question? If your transducer has temperature capabilities will it work like this? or does it need to contact the water to be accurate? :doh: :doh: :doh:

Re: Transom Drain Tube

I used a piece of 1" schedule 40 pvc. I cut my stringer back on my rebuild enough so that I could lay a drill with a hole saw flush at the correct angle. I started on the inside then on the outside to finish the hole. I then used thickened epoxy to glue it in place. The drain plug assembly that...

Re: Motor Break in Question????

I believe it is in your owners manual, the recommended break in procedure. I know it was in my last new mercury (200hp) I purchased manual. It seemed like it took forever that first twenty hours.
