Continuing the thread about the Aquasport 170, I've been thinking about the re-power option, though it's really quite a ways off. What kind of mileage do you get with the 115 Yammie? Also, what kind of top speed? What pitch prop? I took my carbs apart this weekend (had to, got epoxy shavings in the ...

CS: I was well within sight of land. You could see the houses on Dog Island clearly. I was maybe 6-8 miles from the tripod. About 2-3 miles south of the reef. EJ: I have a quality VHF with tall antenna and lots of anchor rope. 30 gallon tank, so lots of range. I too was thinking of one day repowerin...

I've been waiting on this boat for years and years. Other distinguishing characteristic: it's towed behind a...

All right, the Lawfish family finally got a boat. Took the family to Turkey Point Saturday, but it was blowing and awful. Nothing. Sunday was another story. Weather was gorgeous, no wind, flat as a mill pond. Headed to 38 feet of water SE of Dog Island. I have no GPS and bottom machine is basically ...
