Why not run the stop button and kill switch in parallel so you can stop the motor two ways?

Let go Sheldon sea shells

I just used your video and did the impeller replacement on my B100. I had one hiccup though. The little gearshift link pin, I dropped it into the tube that the linkage runs through. I ordered a replacement and will be using a screw for testing the motor until the replacement arrives. My question is, will the pin cause any issued if I just leave it in there? My other options are to disassemble the whole thing, or turn it upside down and hope it'll fall back out.

The breathing sounds in squirrel voice were gold!

If the filler plug was left in at first the oil flow would be more controlled. I had one of these years ago, great motor! It had a more colorful hood. I sold it and bought a 15, that was a lot heavier and had more vibration. The 10 was very smooth with two small pistons. Later went back to the 8hp classic, not as pretty but pretty much the same motor rated in prop hp instead of power head hp. One change is the old ones would shut off when put into gear if the oil was low. The later models would sound an alarm but continue to run - It's up to the skipper to choose whether to shut it down or run it low on oil. Depending on the tide, current and rocks it just might be a decision to take. :)

Been three years. I wonder how #2 is doing?

Video was super helpful. thanks very much

Thank you for making this video. I have a hynautic system in my new to me boat and I was at a loss on how to fill with fluid. So thank you

Where’s part 2

How to use the equilizer function

That thing is a hoot........

Hey, just a couple questions about the water heater remover. First of all I trust you shut off the breaker to the water heater before you went down and drained it because the element running with no water in the tank is bad news that’s what happened to me secondly how did you shut off the supply to the water heater? You removed the cable or the hose that feeds the water in After you’ve already opened the drain so obviously you had shut off the main feed to it and I’m just wondering where that can be found . Thanks

Did you have to drain the gear oil first?

did you just have the wrong sized pole in the wrong spot?

Open-toe sandels? OSHA violation!

Did you get a new truck?

Didn’t know they used torsion axels on boat trailers. Winterized my boat and took it to storage yesterday. Can’t believe it will be over 6 most till I see her again. Have a good one. Cheers!

So I guess you won’t store the boat in your garage so you can put your truck in there?

Hello, my name is Dmitry, I am from Russia, I cannot buy Tug 9 drawings, could you share or sell photos of these drawings

Do you have any idea what year your trailer is? I have one exactly like it I’m restoring but have no idea of the year. I like what you’ve done.Thanks

You just spin the driveshaft with a little molly on the Impeller and water pump housing. That zip tie method is nonsense mkay. You can put the lower in gear and spin the prop so driveshaft rotates clockwise.

Would it be possible to put links to the decals, hubcaps and maybe shocks for us?! I'm going to need those too. Thanks!

Nice! I'm thinking of doing a similar trailer resto, would be my first time on such a project. I'm wondering if the media blasting co did a quick primer coat to prevent surface rust, or if you had to quickly do that? Newb here but I've seen steel get light rust so quickly, I'm concerned about that time of bare metal. Thx!

japanese craft are so robust.

What a vessel, man. I can see where the comfort factor is off the chart coming from a 30’ Regal, or any of the pocket cruisers. It’s just a bit more boat than I’d want. I love the classic Chris Craft styling and quality, though. I’d like to find a nice, well kept 1970’s era 25’ Catalina. It’s mostly just gonna be me and my wife on weekends, and won’t be doing a lot of entertaining, so it makes sense for us. A v-berth, galley, dinette and wet head in the cabin and a Bimini over the cockpit and I think we’ll be happy.

Awesome opportunity, would love to own one of them!!!💚💙💜❤️💚💙💜❤️ I would leave the screen used as is, battle scares add to the character of it!!

We just finally got our boat out for the first time last weekend.

What brand and size tires were these? They fit the boat perfectly!

Great name! Great times!

Just think, it coulda been the night we were texting about flying monkeys! 😊😊

Meatball!! Love it and the story behind it. And there is a extremely loose connection with Thirsty Whale if you reach for it...

Hahaha…would be funny hailing each other over the vhf….LadyD 🤙🏾Cheers

What….not Weathervane?? 😉😂

Great name Chad! That spot you guys went to is a favorite of ours too. Always a good day on the boat. Cheers!

i've got a BF100 80's Hard to start no water output, pulled .the flywheel sanded the contacts .new plugs, cleaned the main jet , new fuel filter checked all fuel lines . Going to fix the water re circulation problem. Whats next?... A new motor? Great video! 👍 GO NINERS!

Im looking at the same boat they are asking 4K

Is there a difference between the b100s and the bf100

Nice job as always Chad! I need to rent your services for 2 weeks to tackle all my ridiculousness. Hope you are getting out on the water as well.

I would have out the voltmeter in the blank spot in your gauge cluster. Easier to read while at the helm.

Nice one Chad. Can’t have too many charging ports these days.

There's no way to describe the feeling you get when you drill a hole in fiberglass. It's a permanent hole. Did I do it right? Is it actually where I wanted it?

Yay!!!!

Great to see you out and enjoying your new ride 🤙🏾. Nice…

Congratulations on the new boat!!! Hope you post video of when you do the deep clean. Would love to see how you do it.

Hey Chad, I’m happy for you. What boat launch do you use? When in Sturgeon Bay we tend to go to Sawyer Park just because it has lots of parking for longer trailers and the ramp workers allow us to use the further out three launch lanes for launching and loading as an exception due to our boats size and draft. I try to use the furthest out lane to stay out of the other ramp users way because we are simply slower than many boaters. Yeah, we fully prep in the prep area and I can back the trailer in perfect the first time but its just too heavy for my wife to handle the lines if there is wind so I need to do some running back and forth. Hope to see you out on the water. Look for a Sundancer with the boat name Shambala.

Cool! 👍🏻

Hey Chad you need to get some sun you were blinding me. 😆 Glad everything went well for you on the boat.
