Just went through the same process. Mine was a 2006 Mach 5. I was told by HH that you can replace just the pressure switch in recent models but...
I recently had trouble getting a battery in Destin, FL. Finally found a local NAPA Marine Starting/Deep Cycle Battery BCI No. 8D 1425 A for a...
I had a great experience with Neil Haynes. He is knowledgable, thorough and very likable. I learned a lot from him and would highly recommend.
I currently own a 2003 Johnson 70 Skylounge that I've had for 5 years. This is my first and probably only motoryacht so I don't have a lot to...
After 3 days of crawling around in the engine room, I've learned a few lessons. The bilge has been my classroom and, as a result, I've come up...

I, too, love it when I'm walking down the dock to my boat and think, "Wow, she's gorgeous!" But the longer I've been a boat owner, the more...
That's a good reminder. Will do. Thanks.
Thanks for the help! The cable from the actuator to the transmission was broken at the gear shifter/lever. I really appreciate it!
I have a CAT 3412e engine with a Morse KE4 controller. While backing up, the STB engine got stuck in reverse. Moving the throttle to the forward...
Just a word to the wise about TIG welding. I had a local engineering firm fabricate a swim ladder for me and when they installed it under the swim...
Wow! What a great education. :-)
