  1. I suspect your choice might come down to warranties and your best local service center.... I will admit I am not real keen on the Suzi warranty being 3 years factory and 3 years aftermarket with a lot of fine print BUT I do like the Suzi 4 stroke engines...
  2. Sorry to hear about your problems, glad they are getting worked out. One question? Are you paying the 3K or is the Marina with the bad fuel? or is yours or the marina's insurance?
  3. 2 Trailers with Kodiaks...Great 1 Trailer with Tie Downs..Made it about a month till the problems started...wound up replacing them after a little over a year rusted bad.. Did I mention Tie Down Customer service SUXS!!
  4. Your water pump pics help me TREMENDOUSLY when I did my twins a month ago... I dont think I would have attempted it without them ...ThankYou, Sir!! You really are doing boaters a great service..Thanks!!
  5. X3 I would also do the Thermostat at the same time and maybe the poppet valve... Both are very quick and easy to do on my F115 so I would assume the same on your F90
  6. Your not even hitched yet and its already started... Good Luck
  7. Sorry, reread the post. Good Luck on your sale
  8. Just for information purposes...How much does XD 50 and XD 100 oil cost you?
  9. Alot of that data seemed pretty old since it was done in Feb 2004. Lots of changes since then.
  10. was just a passenger along for the ride. Things were not all bad thou as the bus driver pulled over to bar for a drink. As I sat at the bar nursing my drink with several bar umbrellas in it, I saw these two large men that were not friendly at all that were headed my way. I had dealt with them before. One had been my lover and the other hated me for this. It was obvious they had something serious on their minds and I was in no shape nor the right mind to deal with it. So, I quickly headed for the back of the bar, but as my luck would have it the Mens room was occupied, so there I was was huddled in the Ladies Room. Just me and.........
  11. Anything above 145 to 150 I would say you got a problem showing... The big thing is consistancy, they should be wothin 10 to 15 degrees of each other...
  12. Cool Pixs.... Glad your a Florida fan...GO GATORS!!!!
  13. Tyrone or I have always like Beuford or other old southern names, I had a dalmation named Ellwood ..... Course I gotta tell ya that one looks like trouble, maybe Bucket or Mullet or even Snapper Cute dog
  14. I would look between Daytona and Stuart.. 250K is going to be light for waterfront in Florida...
  15. Most auto parts stores carry the Laser Temp gauges. They run around 50 bucks... very useful tool
  16. Dusty, Fishing here is good for both bottomfish and kingfish, Tarpon, some Dolphin, some Cobia, Good AJ etc. As stated I think pumping the bearings that much is too much. If you have Superlube hubs you will probably not do damage BUT if you have Buddy Bearings you run a great risk of blowing out the rear seal, then you will have issues.
  17. I have had problems in the past with hub temps when I first got my trailer due to brake issues. I have a 23 foot CC with the same setup now. I just got back from a 400 mile trip also. Per my laser temp guage my hubs run anywhere between 112 to 124 (when it is really hot outside). All your hubs should not get more than 10 degrees different in temps if your are on the interstate (very little brake use) . I have never checked hubs after alot of brake use.
  18. Great boats... I am glad they are weathering the economic storm, I had thought they had closed shop. Glad I heard WRONG... Again great boats, maybe one day I can move up and own a 26
  19. I use the old style muff with no problems on mine. The water pumps were not hard... Andy has a great pictorial resource on another site that will help big time. If you have no idea what I am talking about PM me and I will send you a link.
  20. I have 06 twin counter rotating F115's, they have been excellent engines... Nice rig
  21. Looks like a nice site. The music is a little over the top. Its a friggin boat, not like your going to war in the thing.... I like that 29..
  22. Seatrial both, I would say the Grady is higher end boat but it will cost you more. I am also not slamming the Sailfish as I own a 06 2360 CC and have loved it. I think the Sailfish 2860 would be my choice over the 30-06 just because it has a great rep. The Sailfish should be a lot less money than the Grady and several places are giving out some great deals on Sails right now... I would definitely give the Sailfish some serious consideration.
