I recently noticed a little oil under my skeg. After trying to trace the source I found I have a line on my outboard with a cut in it. It appears to be a standard fuel line style hose for 2 stroke...

MLF Pro Casey Scanlon guides on LOZ. We had a awesome trip with him.

Thanks for the input. I would consider the Ghost, but I already have 2 Humminbird MEGA units so I'm pretty much stuck with the Ultrex. I've been dragging my feet hoping they would come out with a...

Thanks for the replies. That was my thought, if I'm OK with the 80lb 24V on there now, I don't know why I wouldn't be happy with the same in a Ultrex. I just wasn't sure if the Ultrex demanded more...

Hey guys, I've decided I'm finally going to spend the money for a Ultrex. At this point I'm just debating between upgrading to a 36V or sticking with a 24V? The boat currently has a 24V Maxxum on it...

I recently moved to the Springfield area and wondered if anyone had a Merc shop in the area they highly recommend?

I had a chance to lake test the boat today after raising the motor. I did see some positive improvement in it. I hit a top speed of 67 at 5,800rpm, which is a increase of around 3mph and 200rpm. It...

I just purchased a boat that the dealer replaced the powerhead on prior to me buying it. It’s a 2009 Pro XS 250 and the new powerhead came straight from Mercury. My first questIon is will the...

I had a chance to measure it today. It was set at about 4 3/4” under pad. I adjusted it as much as the jack plate would allow me to and I got it to 3 3/4”. To get it any higher it looks like to...

Thanks for the input. It does have a manual jack plate. I will check the height and post it, hopefully someone can give me more insight with that info. I can see from a old water line that at some...

I believe it’s getting wide open throttle. What would be the best way to check that?

I recently purchased a 2009 Triton 20X3 w/ 250 ProXS. I bought it from a dealer who put a brand new power head on it prior to me purchasing it. I broke it in as Mercury recommended and I think the...

I recently purchased a hot foot for my 20 x3. I’m hoping it will be fairly straightforward to install. Any tips or suggestions to do this. I know I need a longer throttle cable, does anybody know...

I have a 2009 20 X3 that has the round gauge cluster that includes the trim, water pressures, and fuel all in the same gauge. My water pressure and trim portion of the gauge aren't working. I took...

I'm trying to track down the center seat for a 2013 Nitro Z8. Does anyone know where you can buy them? I know a lot of people pull them out, so I hoped to find a used one, but I haven't had any luck....

I'm looking at a boat the has a low hour 2006 Yamaha 250 HPDI on it. I've only owned Merc's until now and don't have any experience with Yamaha. Is this a solid motor or should I stay away from it? ...

I'm in the market for a new boat and there are a couple 201 XL's evolution's for sale in the area that have caught my eye. My main concern is it doesn't look like it has a option for a middle seat? I...

I'm considering buying the Helix 9 SI g2n for the bow of my boat and contacted Humminbird to see what transducer I would need to mount on the trolling motor. The rep told me it includes hardware to...

I had planned on picking up the 93SV that is going to be on sale at BPS next week to upgrade the unit on the front of my boat. After doing some research I ran across and video and some info that...

I recently purchased a boat that has a linked Humminbird 1198c and 858c. I would like to upgrade the front 858c unit to something larger with DI. I don't have a huge budget, so I was looking at...

The drivers seat in my Stratos sits a little low and I was thinking about adding a adjustable sliding seat mount similar to what comes standard in many of the new bass boats. This would give me...

I'm in the process of selling my boat, but the buyer wants to be able to test it on the lake. The little lake close to me is still about 80% ice as of 5pm today. It's suppose to be pretty warm...

I think I'm pretty good about making sure I've pumped the primer bulb and don't have the motor way up or down. I will run into this issue even if I've been running on plane for awhile and then slow...

Thanks for the input so far. When I took it in to the shop they said the sync'd the carbs to solve the problem. (although there was little to no improvement) They were not cleaned, rebuilt or...

I have a XR6 150hp that is idling really rough and will die when in gear at idle. When it's idling in neutral is a little better, it's not super smooth, but at least doesn't die. When it's put in...
