Rsscottsdds, You snuck that last post in just as I was trying to answer some of your questions. lol, no worries If indeed you do have the original rectifier and water cooled voltage regulator, I...

Depending on who rebuilt engine, hopefully they removed magnets from rectifier and or generator at crank. I removed my rectifier and all of its components as well as magnets so as not to be...

Hey doc, I kind of went through similar circumstances. First of all, maybe put the boat in neutral position, remove keys, take the controller, the cable and wires off at the helm. Next, take the...

Thanks Chris for the quick response. I was kind of trying to wave the idea of putting her in the Schuylkill River to water test but I guess that is what I will have to do tomorrow after work. I...

Thanks Chris, figured it to probably be just that or maybe lower shift cable failure. Just needed some input. I sure as heck hope it is not the lower shift cable. It just worked so good a few...

CHawk, I know it is limited but I guess it could possibly help me someday. I guess I just wanted to try and get everything I could out of the radio I purchased. Probably overkilled but that is the...

Just bought boat insurance tonight. I heard that New Jersey is attempting to pass legislation to make it mandatory for boat owners to be insured. Also, many marinas require proof of insurance to...
