I took the MAP Sensor 2 off today. It was super clean. I ran the engine and figured out that if the alarm goes off, pump the ball (each time it was empty), and it would go off. I'm not thinking the issue is a clogged fuel filter. I plan to change the rule/water separator next weekend. I'm...

Hi I have a Suzuki DF140 that is giving me a 3-2 map sensor alarm. I took the cowling off and it stopped last weekend after a quick google search. I thought the wind was maybe blowing a little exhaust back and that caused it...wrong! It happened again today and I couldn't get it to reset...

My fishbox macerator pump finally blew! Any advice for a pump to replace it? I also need a switch for the other pump. My mechanic blew that when debugging the other. The day was actually great as I rewired every battery terminal connection! Any suggestions?

The boats out and sanded down...wow that was a chore! We plan to paint next weekend. The side that gets the sun was pretty bad but I think we got it out in time. I don't see any damage to the base grey paint and no chips...but lots of sanding. Today I detailed all the hatches. Feels great...

John - I'm seeing this for $210/gal. Was that a typo or am I looking at the wrong product? Also, how many gallon will I need of the SR for the hulls?

Thanks - I've decided that we can paint this ourselves. Does anyone have a recommendation on which paint to go with? I need ablative paint. There are a new brands on Amazon that I have looked at but thought I'd ask for a recommendation before selecting one.

He there - happy new year! My Tomcat needs some bottom paint pretty bad. I have no experience and was planning to have a local shop do this. I have a bunch of crew that want to help so I’m now considering doing this myself. It’s ablative paint and there are a few small bare spots. Any...

Im installing downrigger on my Tomcat. I was told to mount them mid-ship (on the step in). Can someone confirm? Also, any suggestions of an electric scotty down rigger?

Guys - Heres a quick video you may like of adventures and mods on my Tomcat https://youtu.be/Za1-9VanXWA I really appreciate the advice/support from this board! Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there.!

I finally came up with a name for my Tomcat that worked. I'm having boatus.com custom design the decal and I was planning to use 5" height letting based off some research here. They are estimating that the name "True North" will be 65" wide. Doesn't that seem excessive? If the letters were...

I posted a new video today about my Tomcat. Check it out: https://youtu.be/zQhxhnrYXik

Bob - they seem to drift

Hi - I could use more advice on my steering controls. I have noticed that I need to adjust my engine position every couple trips. When I'm washing down and have the engine up and to one side, I use the t bar valve to drop the starboard engine to align with port on the sea star bar. These are...

Jody - won't it jump up when it senses your hand?

Perfect - that looks great

I'm using iMovie. I watched some tutorials on YouTube after messing around and it really helped. The editing of that drone clip took maybe 2 hours. I'm getting pretty quick but it's kind of become a second hobby.

Thanks for the comments! The mavic is hard to catch by hand. The karma may have been a better option for me. In northern ca, we use 2# lead balls on sinker releases.

Hi - I'm looking for suggestions on liner/covering for my table/cabinet tops and flooring options. I had a shelf liner covering my dinette table and it was serviceable but want a more finished look. On the floor, I have a thin black rubber mat thats ok. I'd like to upgrade both. Any ideas...
