I had mine printed and bound last week. I bought the boat as a third owner. No boat manual, no stern drive manual.

thats where I was page not found or never existed is all it says even for brand new boats.

I was on cobalt web yesterday and had the owners manual pulled up. I was getting bulb replacements for the boat. Found out that I needed the wiring diagrams back up today and they removed all manuals last night. I had them on a thumb, but found out the thumb went bad. Anyone know why they removed al...

The bearings and races should be no big deal, they are cheap and fairly easy to replace. What's your budget for trailer brakes? Do those backing plates for the electric drums come off easily? More modern trailers will have a standard flange and bolt-on backing plates, which gives you a lot of optio...

You Normally can get the bearings and races as a set from autozone or Napa. I'm sure you know the numbers are on the edge of the bearing and race. I don't think I ever paid over $25 for a bearing set. They sell them as a set. Is that a single axle trailer? How long is the boat? What do you tow it w...

If I need a clip I pull out a 69 browning 9mm very smooth, but for good times its a s&w chromed 357.
