Halon is illegal. If you have an existing system that is still charged, you can keep it, but buying new is not allowed. Recharging a discharged halon system is also not allowed. There are other gaseous fire extinguishing systems (e.g. CO2). Halon works best in an enclosed space.

Been there done that. Getting the boat on plane will allow the water to drain. But you still have to stop some time to put the plug in. But if you're ready to do the plug before you stop, the amount of water you have to pump out could be less.

I'd be quite interested to see this.

I probably would look into self storage places that have RV/boat storage. They'd have spaces big enough for the trailer.

Cannonball Run. They made a movie about it. The Cannonball Run was a real thing.

My original guest charger gave up after about 8 years. Replaced it with a ProNautica one.

Probably running too rich. However, IMO if you are not experiencing any operation issues, "Don't fix it if it ain't broke."

I'm wondering what he is going to do on the canals (e.g. Erie=10mph mostly). If he takes the Canadian route I think it is 6mph.

Online BF100A owners manual says "API Standard (GL-4) SAE 90 Hypoid gear oil"

He fell asleep and ran his boat around at speed. Who didn't see that coming?
