Here at year end, running the boat prior to winterization, my port 496mag HO is drastically under performing and very sluggish. Half power. More throttle does not produce more power. It’s extremely “fat” or sluggish starting off trying to get on plane.
Thoughts???

Loading up the Sea Foam Marine B4 winterization.
Loading up the Sea Foam through the gas & oil prior to putting away for season. Anyone else do this. Need to run through the 90 gallons. Shouldn’t take too long with the twins. . What a wonderful 80 degree Oct 21st day.

We just got to the water this year. Saved a cone clutch repair till mid summer. DIY with a buddy. Wish I would have done it sooner. Was more emotional than hard. $1200 in parts and 3 days after hours. On the water!

Re: Any Porsche files here....
That’s great top end. Thanks for the added pics. The 996 Turbo is 02. It’s OBO. Great time to make offer. I know the guy personally. Oh, and he is offering me $1500 to find a buyer...LOL. Anything in $60’s is on the money in my book. Brand new OEM Porsche trans $16k, EVO 660 Kit $25k, brake, wheels,...

Lake shoes! Anyone recommend good lake shoes?
The one thing I haven’t mastered is my lake fashion. Specifically, a good pair of lake shoes. I keep ruining all my slip on deck shoes that I love. Sandals never work. Marina water moccasins type shoes always fall apart. Tennis shoes are to much work and don’t work when wet. Soooo, anyone have a goo...

Let me get this straight. A beautiful 968, a forever favorite 993 C2 S, and of course the Turbo are the first three to respond to this thread? Talk about a goldmine, already made this thread worth it! Aslan, beautiful pics! Love that color! So rare to ever see a 968. Porsche should have continued th...
