    Vacuflush model on Chaparral Sunesta 264 2017

    I think it depends on the model, tank size and age. Mine did about 6 or 7 strokes.

    Vacuflush model on Chaparral Sunesta 264 2017

    I had a 2011 Sig 290. My filter was on the top of the tank and used garden hose connections to swap it out. Personally, I would not bypass it unless you don't mind the odor. Chemicals or not it can still smell without a filter. Try it? I went to the hardware store and made up a 1 1/2" PVC pipe...

    Vacuflush model on Chaparral Sunesta 264 2017

    There must be a model number on the unit/tank itself. Also you should find the vent filter on top of the tank I would think. That's where mine was and and every season I had to change it. Ether the tank would smell or it was clogged.

    2003 Chaparral 200SSi

    If it was me, I would start at the basics. I would replace cap and rotor as a first step, Than Wires and plugs. There too cheap not to try, but I would base my suggestion on "when was the last time they were replaced". Than look at other places or take it to a mechanic. Years ago I learned to...

    I had the same problem. I countersunk pilot holes into the cover and screwed the cover onto the side of the boat.

    Finally an easy way to keep my bottom clean

    I guess how dirty is dirty? How brackish is the water? Bottom paint will keep the bottom clean and it comes in many colors. Pull the boat out and drive away. You could hose it down too.

    Finally an easy way to keep my bottom clean

    There is this new thing. Bottom paint, it works very well. Some say you will lose 2 knots. But paint is only applied every 1 or 2 years. A lot less work!

    270 Signature bond wire question

    Bonding wires go to anything that is metal that is in the water. As a sea strainer for your A.C. or any other though hull fitting. Also your outdrive or any other running gear. Well, plastic ones don't need them, but they don't last that long. This protects that metal from stray currents and...

    Got a problem. Too much wear showing on outdrive

    I can not answer your questions. I know there is a alignment for the drive as a whole. But on that part of the drive I don't know.

    How Dumb

    They should be using a boat hook to push them selves off. On a small boats, they should have paddle. In Mass, I know it is a requirement but not sure where it stops on the size of the boat.

    Got a problem. Too much wear showing on outdrive

    If I had to guess, the first thing I would do is inspect all the bolts holding the drive on. Have you hit anything? Are those arms square, mean the one on the right is not bent, or is it.

    A sure sign it's about boating season. Gas prices go UP.

    So very true. Clubs promote boating in so many different ways.

    How do you carry your dingy?

    You just use a crane.

    A sure sign it's about boating season. Gas prices go UP.

    The same here. Some Clubs will offer slips or moorings to visiting club members at a lower price.
