190dccali asked:
I am the 2nd owner i really never figured out the proper way to fill up the live well.Most of the times i would turn on the freshwater switch on manual to fill the live well slowly and other times it just fills up on its own.The fresh water switch works on recirculate only not manual and when i am ready to drain the live well i shut off the main fuel switch and it usally drains.My other promblem is that my speedometer doesn't work at all.What can i do to try to solve these promblems without taking it to a dealer? I am also looking for a original manual for this boat it's a 1992 nitro bass boat 150 evinrude high performance. I thank you very much for any information that you can provide.Thanks again,Joe.

Hi, i am a marine technition who just purchased a 1979 skeeter bass boat as a project for me and my son.I am very farmilliar with all boat side as well as engine side systems just not glasswork too deeply, I just loved the shape of the hull and transom. Anyway i just split the cap and hull and what i found was someone has already done some glass work on the rear stringers and 3/4 up the transom. what i need to know is where to and not to use mat or roven. the cap is matalic blue flake and looks dull. I sure would like to be able to see it glossy again or can i spray gelcoat to make it look white and shiney or do i just wet out the entire deck with resin and sand then spray??? please any detailed information would surley save me headaches and money with my first project boat.

Be on Water asked:
So I bought a 1970s Johnson 50 hp with a 1970s boat. The carbs are being rebuilt right now, but runs fine otherwise with great compression. The boat is in good shape, came with a trailer, original seats in great shape, and original convertible top for sunny / rainy days.

I'm about to buy a bass boat, or maybe a ski boat.
How much will insurance run, for a new model or an older model? per year or month?

What are the things you enjoy most about boating?
I love taking Friends or family out on the boat and doing alot of tubing and speeding around.
My favorite thing to do while boating is to just stop the boat someplace cool and jump off and swim for hours. listening to music, exploring islands. Tossing back a few cold beers and enjoying the hot summer day.
I also love to anchor the boat and swim to shore and have a picnic or explore , leaving the boat anchored off shore several hundred feet.
