    Rocket Launcher Shopping

    I to wanted a little cheaper route and cut up some 1 1/2" pvc. with some dry fitting of t's and90's came up with anice looking 5 pole holder. glued it and added some aluminum paint. from a short distance you couldn't tell the difference. didnt break the bank at about $25 and works just as well.

    There has to be an easier way to change oil

    i also have a 5 gallon bottle set up like this with a 1 inch hose. i can use it to suck up a few gallons of water, if i don't want to get the inside of my shop vac all gunky. works great just dump out bottle

    There has to be an easier way to change oil

    another easy method if you don't want to spend the money on a suction pump and have a shop vac. take an old stiff plastic bottle, i use 5 gal water bottle . find hose that will push tight into engine drain hole. drill hole same size near top bottle , shove hose 1/3 to 1/2 way to bottom inside...

    Larger fuel tank on a 16 cruiser?

    We also would like to increase or cruising range. Presently have 2 - 12 gallon tanks, battery and bilge pump that fit under engine splashwell pretty well, but snugly.

    knots/mph conversion tables

    thanks for the chart Marty. i would 2nd everything Noro Lim said. being an inland boating rookie i could use some of those red/green socks with a large P & S printed on them. thanks again for generously fixing us up with that camperback, it has made our c-dory camping very enjoyable!

    Fuel tank/ battery location on 16' Angler

    as to the battery with the fuel tanks about all i could add is have snug battery connections. and more important i think a plastic battery box is very good idea to keep any loose gaffs, nets , or anything else metallic from making any unneeded sparks in that area.

    Fuel tank/ battery location on 16' Angler

    our 93 16' angler has 2 12gal gas tanks and battery under splash well. they are all strapped down. not sure if came this way from factory ,but seems to work well. enjoy your angler. silvers in 3 weeks can't wait! tight lines. dan

    How the lower unit is coupled to the upper Honda BF40

    just did my 45, just need to tap on it a little harder. there is a couple alignment pins that can be fairly tight. can lay 2x4 on fins/ cavitation plate and tap on also. just hang on to it cause once 1/8 - 3/16 apart you'll be loose
