Well I'm having to part with my V, having upgraded to a Robalo 235 with 4 stroke power. I'll miss the boat, but it's been sitting in the driveway for 4 months now and it's time to get serious about selling. Please pass the word along if you know anyone looking. Thanks...

Hopefully Ferm or Spare will jump in here, but all opinions are welcome. So my neighbor (retired mechanic) was looking at my engine with me and became concerned that the hoses are not routed correctly. Some pics are attached. He used some terms that I can't remember, but he really isn't...

I am considering making this guy an offer. Checked the boat out today, but have not met with or spoken with the owner directly except by text. http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/4894780450.html The negatives: a few cracks and dings in the interior gelcoat, bottom is painted The...

Grouper reopened on 5/1 and we got out on Sunday to get our fair share while they are still thick. We got our 1 per person limit (spearing in 80'), and had a pretty sweet day outta Mayport.

... Is always best when everything is closed season :bsflag: 31" grouper, & 31" snapper both go back. Along with 10 or so smaller snapper. We get to keep 5 seabass and 3 flounder:sun:

A neighbor recommended that I go to the next hotter plug than what the engine specs call for, because I am pre-mixing and my oil ratio is rich. Says it may help the engine run more efficient and keep the plugs cleaner from fouling. Do you guys agree? Also, he recommended I switch from...

http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/4133128327.html Came across this on CL... I currently run a 14.5x17 4 blade prop and I like it but its aluminum. This looks like a good price for SS, but is it a good fit for my engine/hull? Thanks

http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/3812170006.html Looks to be in good, original condition. $4200.

I'm trying to find a nice rental with pool and boat slip. I've called and emailed a few in the steinhatchee area. Just figured I'd put it out there to see if anyone has anyplace in particular I should check out. Can't be too rustic or the wife won't like it, but I'd like to be very near the...

Has anyone seen or used these tabs? They're about half the price of lenco and Bennett and I was wondering why and if they are reliable.

Put the motor in the shop today for a rebuild. Having it rebuilt with a new crank and refurbished block. My V has been out of the water since November 2011, so I'm pretty pumped to be getting it back in action soon. Didn't complete my to-do list while the boat was out of action, but I did...

My teak is cracked and doesn't look good anymore and I was thinking of redoing it with a PVC material. Has anyone else done this and what type of material did you use and where did you get it? I looked at some stuff at Home Depot today that looked okay... just needs to be ripped to the right...

Anyone familiar with this Ana Capri boat? Looks like a nice hull shape. I'm looking for a bargain motor for my V when I came across this. http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/3404878099.html

Who has added a freshwater washdown? What type of tank did you install (flexible, plastic) and where did you locate it? Also where did you buy it? I think this could be about a $300 project well worth doing. In my '82 cuddy, I have a void in the floor forward of the fuel tank. I was...

Anyone have or use one? I saw an AquaCharge on Ship Shape the other day and decided I would get one for the boat, to replace the 800 GPM Rule I keep in the cuddy with alligator clips and 6' flex tubing. Doing a google search, I found this Attwood for under $40, and was wondering if I should...

Whenever I bottom fish in the SE Atlantic, we typically use a triple swivel with an 8 oz bank or teardrop sinker on a 6-12" loop of 10-15 lb mono and a 5/0 circle hook on about 2-3' of 50 lb mono. It works pretty well, but last week while on a red snapper charter in the northern Gulf of Mexico...

Heading to Destin for a few days of diving. We have some public numbers, but our host does very little offshore fishing/diving. If any locals have any secrets they're willing to share, we'd be glad to have them. I believe the water's getting close to 75*... are you guys seeing any cobia yet...

Just finishing up my latest project. Since the fuel tank is pulled and the engine is dismantled, figured I might as well work on some inexpensive repairs. This was a pretty simple repair. Found everything I needed to know doing searches on this site.

http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/2900234894.html Does anyone have any insight into this motor? I can't imagine it's very different than my 1994 175 HP Evinrude. If I go look at it... what should I look for? What should compression be at/near? Thanks, Aaron

Saw these on CL today. Not anywhere near NJ, but if anyone near NE Fla is looking for them... http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/2858349274.html
