Re: Gas consumption

Robert, My solution to that is to simply use the funnel that came with your vehicle and pour it into your car fuel tank. The minimal amount of oil in the gallon or so of marine fuel is nothing when diluted by the10 gallons in your vehicle tank. Rather than pour the fuel into the vehicle, I just use ...

Re: Hello just upgraded to f-rib330

PaulG I have a bow canopy for my f375 that I bought from an Frib dealer. It works great but not the most streamlined creation. Easy to put on and off and has the advantage of a window to display the registration numbers. I did not find a better alternative available for sale 3 years ago and did not ...

Re: Whether to fog for winter or not.

Guys, I would recommend checking the operating manual for storage recommendations. For my 20 HP 4 stroke EFI Mercury the manufacturer specifically recommends against fogging an EFI engine. Instead they recommend adding a portion of 2 stroke engine oil and stabilizer to the last fuel run through the ...

Re: Hi All, I’m a newbie based in Kent UK

Re: Launching aids

I use air logs to roll my boat with the motor across the beach at the cottage.

The air logs work well and are inflated in seconds with an electric pump and a...
