Looking for the best epoxy to use over the thread over the eyelets of the rod. I had some but it now has gone bad.
As I also Thought also. It was just after I felt I struck something whatever i noticed my top-in wasn't what it had been. I checked my records and the last time i checked the PTP on the motor and...
I agree bassdge and jimsch hitting something with boat shouldn't affect the prop to pad setting. Right after I thought I may have struck something I ran to the ramp to load up and go have everything...

Thanks Folks. Cold as it is forecasted believe I'm going to a nearby lake to make the change of the prop to pad from the 3" to where is best at 3.25" first thing then do the lake test. I was going...

Thanks jimsch for the help and the information. I noticed that i posted the motor as a 2000 but it was a replacement motor and was a 2013 Mercury. I went to the referenced address That is kind of...

I have 2000 Stratos 283 Vindicator. The motor is a 2013 Mercury Pro XS 175hp outboard. What would be the correct Prop to Pad setting to get best performance of boat and motor.
With all the rain in Central NC several days ago has the floating debris on the lake blown to the shore?
Just can't wait so off I go in the morning to Badin Lake to try new fishing stuff. I had one Team Lew's Pro SP baitcast reel I really like and now have two more loaded up and got to go skip some...
Thanks, Savage, for your response. I thought this but just had to get response from someone smarter than me. I've got Humminbirds with GPS and that take care of my boat speed readings. Now I have...
lpugh I just used a very small drill bit to clear the bits of wood from the petot tube hole in lower unit housing. Now I believe I have knocked the connecting tube from petot hole to the speedometer...
As I thought lpugh, I am not that sure that the wood in this speedo hole is from the instance I spoke of but at any rate the hole is stoped up. As you suggested I had planned to take a very small...
Just a day or two I was on a lake when I hit a small floater not any bigger than a small ball bat. I was moving at a slow speed of around 5-10 mph. I did raise the motor to look if there were any...

Thank You CatFan. Just returned from Auto Zone with 2 Duralst 31Dc-DL groupsize 29HDeep Cycle 675 cca 840mca marine batteries. These should do the trick. Now just waiting for this down pour...
Jim feel you pain with the interference. I had done everything I could think of with limited success. I had just learned to live with-it. Then read your post and called Humminbird who sent me a...
Didn't Know that CatFan. From what I read about Duralast batteries there're among the quality battery companies out there. Like to hear some feedback from those who are using these Duralast 31DC-DL...
Presently I have 2 EverStart Maxx 29DC Marine Deep Cycle batteries. I've Used EverStart Since 2013 with No problem. Now Walmart, where I bought these batteries, is out of stock. Like to roughly...
