I have always put mine on stands to keep the weight off the tires for over the winter storage. My package is about 6200 lbs. Don't know if it helps or not with preserving the longevity of the tires or not. I just feel better about it. Glad she fits, inside storage is always the best. Plus you...

I've heard about that rule, it is also said when going for a walk in the mountains or desert.

SSt is right. My 30 +years of running, my average is mid to high 5's I cruise between 2300 and 2900 RPM depending on sea conditions and number of people. My 4's kick in at 3100. With my 12"x18" tabs I never have to get into them. I cruise between 20 and 23 MPH, again depending on conditions...

I have an E-Z Loader with rollers and I have always trailered. Back in the late 60's I had a 15 ft Mark Twain with bunks, that I also trailered. So with bottom paint, I never had to wash the bottom. My question is, what if you did not put the trailer in as deep as you normally do to retrieve...

Next year my girl will turn 40 and I will have had 33 of them, with 2000 hrs. and still going strong. When I got her she had a bad fuel gauge, so I replaced it. A known factor back then, that gauges were not that good. So like SST and Iggy, I started to do the math with gals per hr. Then you...

Sorry about that, (old eyes). I can only tell you what works for me to expose my total bottom.The very back of my keel is flat and is not rounded or V pointed. They called it a planning plate. So I get a large thick block of wood and a floor jack and raise it from there with it still attached to...

Maybe the caretakers of the site retired and there was no one that wanted to take over responsibility. I'm sure that Doc can tell you what it cost to run a site that does not generate any outside revenue, along with the time spent to keep it clean. Look at what was happening to the Chap site...

How big is she, and fresh or saltwater?

My blowers are the first thing to be turned on, and the last thing to be turned off. If the engine is on , so are my blowers, I have 2, 1 to catch the low fumes and 1 to catch the high fumes. They came standard with my girl.

Star Board is neat stuff, it comes in black or white, and different thicknesses. Starting at 1/8 " I believe.

Can you see the fill hose, can you trace it to the tank? Also can you see and trace the vent hose? If that all looks good, then the next thing that I would do, is to pressurize the tank. Somewhere under the deck you have the odor of raw gas or raw gas itself. If you and your friend's boats are...

Ok, see if you have a drain in the floor of the cabin. If you do smell the drain to see if the odor is stronger. Get a wet towel and put it over the drain and keep it there and keep it wet. Air it out the cabin then close it up to see if the odor comes back. Is the odor there all the time, or...

Is yours the same boat, and where is the filler located?

Trust me, I talk from experience, you have a situation that needs to be looked at. Mine was the fill hose to the tank deteriorated and was like a wet sponge. Close things up there was an odor, open things up odor disappeared. Found it by pressurizing the fuel tank. It could be something very...

So far I have not found one that says echosmith. Do you know what and if there is a difference?

It's a start, give them a call. It was listed on E-bay

If it is not repairable, and you like the unit, search the net for what they call new old stock. Someone out there has one, you just need to find them.

Being that it is so close to the seawater, my guess is that it is a drain for an option that you may not have. So they put in a plug, that is removable if added. If you can get at the area, poke around and see if you can see where it goes. Also welcome to the forum. And as Doc says there are no...

If it does not dig in , it has the same holding power as a cement block of the same weight. Back in the day we would get an empty 3lb coffee can, stick a rope in it, and fill it up with concrete to use it for an anchor on a small rowboat.:)
