NEVER dock in trolling mode. Delay is very unpredictable, thrust is very unpredictable, and etc. Learn to bump them in and out of gear. You...
Silicone is nothing I would worry about. IF you're just changing the oil now, after 2.5 years, it's probably leeched from gaskets or even the...
I was only 4 years old then, but can tell you all about that case! Why do you think you could find someone who's name you don't even know 44...
A good 4 blade has more blade area and creates stern lift. The Motor being too low, the anti ventilation plate drags and has a tendency to make a...

No emissions rules. But anyone could have a Limited Liability Corporation set up cheaply, purchase the boat in that, pay $18k maximum in sales...

They didn't repower the 2021 with a gardener, they built the yacht and put in a used Gardener. Who on earth would build a new boat in 2021 and...
