    New Computer Recommendations

    These days $800 will buy a lot of computer. I would start at places like tigerdirect.com and newegg.com. Just a sample at tigerdirect below. https://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5590493&CatId=4928 I repair computers as a hobby and have bought a lot from...

    New battery time?

    If the specific gravity of the battery is too low I believe you will find that a small charger (steady 15 amp output or less) will be unable to recover a charge in the battery. If you will use a charger that has a "boost" ability of 50 to 100 amps and "boost the battery for 60 to 90 seconds then...

    okay, my computer question

    I think your problem is caused by remaining bits of the McAfee program you used before installing the new program. McAfee and Norton security both require the use of their removal tools to completely remove their product. Below is a link to the instructions for McAfee removal. Simple and only...

    Lowe 1236 modifications

    I don't know how I missed this post but I have say you did an awesome job on your mods. I wish I had known about the Sintra before I put plywood in mine. The boat looks fantastic and the ideas for your boat cover support are well...lets just say I will be using them for a redo on mine. Thanks...

    BassAddict, do you eat that stuff? I just figured that was a 'northern dish' that had migrated LOL.

    I had to google that Scrapple stuff. Wikipedia says "Scraps of meat left over from butchering, not used or sold elsewhere, were made into scrapple to avoid waste... dang at least here in the south we know which part of the pig to throw away! :shock:

    Interesting find inside my evinrude trolling motor

    I can not say with 100% guarantee but my guess would be it is either a power transitor or a heat thermistor. You might email Jones Trolling Motor service at [email protected] (https://www.jonestrollingmotor.com/). They should be able to tell you exactly what it is and it's purpose.

    What kind of motor is this?

    I am pretty sure that is a Johnson SeaHorse. The link below is to SeaKing which I had never seen before. https://www.seakingmotors.com/Sea_King_Outboards_USA.html

    foam on the deck

    Correct. It only comes into play if the boat fills with water.

    Repairing a Evinrude Cowl

    If the fiberglass is still strong and it is just the thin outer layer flaking I would use bondo. I have worked with both and can say that fiberglass is a lot harder to sand because it is a lot tougher than bondo. Mine was doing the same thing and I opted for the bondo. If it were a part that got...

    How long Can you keep fish frozen Before eating!!!

    I put mine in freezer bags and totally cover with water. Just this week I had some gills and cats that had been in the freezer 14 months. Cooked up and tasted fine. Now don't get me wrong, I prefer fresh catch and eat but I have edible fish year round by freezing.

    Glad to hear it was something simple. Those are the problems that usually drive me nuts before I find them. You are going to have a great boat there.Congrats.

    1990 Tohatsu - Now it won't start?!

    Any chance that while hooking up the controls the "key" came out from under the kill switch? Your pic of the controls show it in the correct position but maybe it came out?

    1990 Tohatsu - Now it won't start?!

    I am a little unclear reading your description of what is happening. You say the starter is spinning? Is it in turn spinning the motor over? Pull the cowl and see if the starter drive is actually engaging the flywheel or just spinning freely. If it is engaging the flywheel and turning the motor...
