Emergency Motor for a 24' boat - iboats Boating Forums
2010年5月30日 · Re: Emergency Motor for a 24' boat an auxiallry motor will be big bucks. best to simply have a tow plan. even small boat can tow your 24. i towed my 27 with my jetski, 2 miles. doesnt take much power to move a boat at hull speed. but in your case, i would guess its 10hp. more than an electric can do.
Pontoon boat electrical issue , engjne starts nothing else
2012年9月23日 · Re: Pontoon boat electrical issue , engjne starts nothing else time to buy a volt meter. you need to test for power at the fuse panel. if the fuse panel is near the consule and the battery is near the back of the boat the best way to test is to take a piece of wood and put a nail in it then using a scrap of wire strip and tie to the nail then tie …
Pontoon Boats in Gulf | Boating Forum - iboats Boating Forums
2017年3月4日 · The boat we use here in Fl. is a 20' with a Honda 50 on it. I have a 24' in Mi and I don't think it would do much better than the 20 under those conditions. If the boat I was looking at was going to be used in the Gulf regularly, MY boat would not be a pontoon boat.
Pontoons on electric only lakes? - iboats Boating Forums
2016年6月21日 · As far as the boat itself, at 16' (17' - 4" LOA) proved plenty large enough for the four of us with room for one or two more. Top speed was 8 MPH, which was fine, because again, the lake is not all that big. I wonder how a boat like this would perform with a larger trolling motor (say 75-85lb thrust) on an electric only lake?
Pontoon Sub-floor/Flooring Suggestions.... - iboats Boating Forums
2013年11月4日 · Re: Pontoon Sub-floor/Flooring Suggestions.... My old pontoon boat is a 1985 model, and its original marine plywood is still good. The last piece on the rear was replaced once with sealed and painted regular plywood, and it only lasted 5 years. Real marine plywood is the only thing to use on a pontoon boat.
siphoning fuel from gas tank - iboats Boating Forums
2021年9月19日 · Hi. I have a 1997 Lowe Silhouette deck boat that has been sitting since February due to medical issues. I want to siphon out the fuel (3/4 tank full) as it will probably be spring before I can take the boat out again. My problem is I can not get the fuel to flow trying to siphon. I have used two...
Storing Pontoon on my own property over the winter
2012年10月27日 · First time boat owner and it looks like my best option is to store the pontoon on my beach shoreline as I do not have a trailer or storage space. My main questions are ideas to pull the boat ashore and raise it on to pipe, wood or blocks. It is a 1995 20ft pontoon in the Michigan winter weather.
Ray Electric Outboard Motor - iboats Boating Forums
2012年7月9日 · I'm moving on a small lake that is electric motor only so my choices are limited. I found a used 20ft 1995 Sweetwater pontoon that has an Ray electric motor on it. Ray claims that 99% of their motors are still in use, they first came out back in 1974. Does anyone have any experience or advice...
Adding a toilet to a pontoon boat - iboats Boating Forums
2009年6月10日 · Re: Adding a toilet to a pontoon boat I would go with a chemical or even the no flush type portable toilets. ( not really sure how they work just know of them) Obviously, a toilet with a holding tank etc, is going to be a lot of $$$$$ and a lot of extra wei
Best pontoon battery | Boating Forum - iboats Boating Forums
2017年12月27日 · IMO The best set up is one just like bruceb58 has described. A single battery setup is OK but if I have one battery in the pontoon I always carry a back up of some sort. For the last few years that has come in the form of a freshly charged, $50 Harbor Freight jump box.
