    Your oil might be too thin, and when it gets hot, its going to be even thinner resulting in the low pressure reading. I run 25W40 Mercruiser oil in my 5.7 Mercruiser, and is the same oil I have ran in all my Mercruisers over the years, which were 3.0 4.3 and now the 5.7.

    I have closed cooling on my boat, and my engine does run hotter than a raw water cooled engine. Not sure if my manifolds get as hot as what you are describing, but they are certainly warmer to the touch than those on a raw water cooler engine. What condition is your antifreeze in?

    Hey Richard, just for a piece of mind, your boat came matched with that trailer, so the tire/wheel package should be the proper match, I'd just replace your tires with what has worked, move some of the weight to the truck, and be done with it. When are you heading west???

    Did you use the North Fort Niagara ramps, or the South set of ramps? The North set have always been much shallower.

    trim tabs

    Diversion replied to dbutts's topic in This Old Boat

    Your PY has a really deep V, therefore the tabs will really impact the ride by just small adjustments. On mine, I got used to them by starting with them all the way up, as if they were not there, and slowly lowering them in order to level out the ride as needed.

    To answer your question, i do not believe that it has to remain on the dash. On my previous boats, it was in a different location on each boat, and ranged from on the dash to on the sides of the boat near the dash. So, as long as it remains visible somewhere on your boat near the dash, you should be good to go.

    The hatch probably has wood as a core in it, and that wood core is probably shot. Best idea is to cut that wood out from the bottom side of the hatch, and glass new wood back in. Use lots of resin to fully coat the wood, making it good for another 20 years.

    Farley was down at the launch at the Fort today, he told me that it is low down there as well.

    With spring right around the corner, it's time to get ready. Where does everyone buy their mono from? I have been running Ande 20lb mono for rigger rods and other common stuff, and my bulk spool is now empty, so I need to replace it. I bought this last spool at Gander, but it seems as though they no longer carry bulk mono. Where does everyone buy their mono?

    Chad, have you launched your boat in that ramp? Does it have enough space, seems kinda tight down there.
