18 Dauntless Suzuki 140
I recently acquired a 1999 18 Dauntless. I have purchased a SUZUKI 140. What is the correct propeller to purchase?
I may buy a 14 x 20, a 14 x 21, or maybe a 14 x 22.

Re: 1985 Evinrude 40-HP Won't Start
Check the spark first. You stated you replaced the fuel line. Is the primer bulb OMC? Only use an OMC primer bulb. And do you have it going in the correct direction? Check the fuel flow by disconnecting the fuel line at the engine) and pumping the bulb. Have a catch bucket ready. Two people would be...

Re: Propeller Locks - Worth It?
If they want it, they will take it, instead of purchasing the lock, I would just remove the prop each time, not a big deal. And stored in your garage will make it harder to steal.

Life Jackets Attachments
I hope everyone here carries at least one life jacket per person. Do you attach anything else to your life jackets?
Each one of my ski-type jackets has attached to it a light, a knife, a whistle, and a compass. I figure if you were to fall over at night the light would really be nice to have.

Re: Trailer and Fuel Tank for 13-foot Boston Whaler
The 13 whaler is a light boat, get any alum float on type trailer should be just fine, as far as fuel tanks I would have one custom built out of .125 alum to your specs., These are the best fuel tanks hands down and will last you a life time.
