    Throttle tension screw???

    I’m having a problem with my throttle not staying in position while I’m running. As soon as I ease off pressure with my hand the speed starts trickling down.

    More Fun!!! Bent Prop Shaft

    I hit something hard coming out of a canal doing 4mph. Propeller wasn’t too bad and I had it fixed already. Didn’t notice prop shaft until I put propeller back in this morning. I tried bending it with a 3ft cheater pipe. I literally jumped up and down on it to no avail. What sort of money is...

    What propeller for my trolling motor?

    Help picking out a jon for backwater exploring

    A few years ago I inherited a little 1436 Alweld jon boat with a 25hp Merc Tiller. I thought it was going to be perfect for exploring the Atchafalaya Basin, plus all the rivers and bayous in the gulf south area near my south Louisiana home. It was just fine if I was alone. However it was a...
