Re: M25 trailer tires and wheel size
I use SimpleTire.com and would recommend the Maxxis tires. I have them shipped to my home and mounted at my gas station. https://simpletire.com/catalog?search&subtype=13&query=trailer-tires&select=1&width=205&ratio=75&rim=14 I found my spare tire rim at etriler.com had the ga...

Re: New glass 2
This is my boat's picture before six coats on NG2.

I used Barkeepers Friend, but next time I think I'll use the 3M Marine Rubbing Compound.

Re: BF50 water pump replacement - water comes out holes
I also found this on the web. The part about the "the shift shaft adjusted to the proper length" is what worries me :? If it ain't broke, don't fix it "When removing the lower you must remove the zinc trim tab and under it is another bolt holding the lower unit on. The shift shaft is ...

Re: BF50 water pump replacement - water comes out holes
Post some pics when you do it, Ross. Maybe other folks with a similar engine can derive some inspiration from them. :) OK, so I want to see what it looks like in there, too. ;^) That would be me. I still haven't gotten up the nerve to replace the impeller :? It was easier to do than I thought it wo...

Re: Electrical Grounding for the house system
We have the factory wire (+/-) running from battery(s) to our panel(s) and the negative is still factory single ground pole behind panel. Thinking ahead; if we are increasing the load to the panels and require additional voltage we may need to max out the voltage to the panels by increasing the AWG...

Has anyone used Newglass 2 on a boat kept in a slip? I was wondering how durable and resistant it is to abrasion from fenders?

Re: new purchase Macgregor 26'
My hull number is MACM0xxxF405 which translates to Manufactured in June 2004, Model Year 2005. I think it's kinda like a car, 2005 model made in 2004. Even stranger is the Model year changes on July 1 each year so she's really is the last of the "early" M's. FWIW: I do have the folding doo...
