Launch at malabar ramp ,follow the main trail from the ramp south , dumps you into centoris (sp?) Or you can head to the stick marsh , I dont have much time out in the stick marsh but I know centoris is always fruitfull

I have an 0360 a1a Nd . The dipstick I have has a handle on it with a button in the middle that you push to release a check ball of sorts ,so you can remove it . Trying to find a little more info in regards to what it actually came off of. I have a copy of a parts manual for my engine ( -36) but wha...

There is a new area off of fellsmere grade rd , that susposed to boast a diverse eco system in terms of structure etc for fishing hunting etc. This property was aquired with the provision stated by the seller that no airboats to be allowed . Any other water craft is ok .

Gary is a great person to deal with honest and very knowledgeable ,if your gonna make the swap a 3 blade might give you a better choice

12 ft ricochet is like 280 ish according to mr hooker . I am seriously still considering buying one ,I guarantee he will take the time and answer questions

Hey gary do you have any 180 nd cylinders ready to go ? if so how much , i got a leaky exhaust valve or seat on #1

I second that on getting the lay of the land prior to your hunt . Finding your way back to the ramp could be challenging , and yes like above said lots palm stumps etc . Bonus is its a great excuse to tear some bass up !

funny you say that, club member was telling us about there being a hog at malabar yesterday , that followed a car around and was just hanging out came right up to him .

I got hung up in the puddin last night ! Took the outside trail from sweetwater canal to xmas tree .The trail hadnt really been riddin in a long time .So it was tight got to the end and it was instant breaks . Finaly rocked the boat and got to clean water .

most filter heads are mercury style filter . Bring your old one with you . Vented caps are a pain .Just a thought does you fuel pump pull through the filter or push the fuel through ? Under normal vacuum of a fuel pump water will not pass the filter . If its 100 % full it could but will cause a mass...

well said !

alcohol by nature is hygroscopic .The reason ethanol based fuels are bad in a marine environment is mainly due to this point . Being that av gas is non ethanol still by adding alcohol you are negating the intent by design .Water has to be coming from somewhere ,with all the rain we have had vents an...

what brand filters are you using ? check your vent and fill caps , i do not recommend anything that claims to remove water .Most of those products are alcohol based and are no bueno

a good swedging tool for copper lugs is alot better than soldering from a safety standpoint. Loose connection creates heat , soldered connections can fall out . Hence why battery cables in the marine industry are crimped some both soldered and crimped .

austin wadell should be able to help i dont have contact info but ive seen him on the fb hes in palm bay

not knowing either one of these gentlemen or having seen there boats before , im gonna say propping .You have two completely different styles of props hard to compare .I personally dont care for warpdrive but i do know people who swear by em . Just my humble opinion

lol im with diggin , offshore people are pretty ridiculous too. I deal with em daily .

Heres the thing , there has been alot of action in the marsh lately . Some involving alcohol . You better believe leos will be at ramps harassing the most popular vessels that use the ramps . All 3 agencys have stated that parking in the grass in a no no . You can nose your boat up to the grass and ...

He is good people volunteers for the haunted airboat ride over here , known him for a long time . Hes honest , not out to screw anyone

Grape hammock is beautiful reminds me ofnl what sweetwaters was when i was a kid. This up coming weekend brevard county airboat association has most of the sites reserved and the houses around there as well , our annual camping trip . Little earlier this year than last .The ramp at campground is a l...

I have had good luck with ac c87's .The champions seem to be getting harder to get for me locally through my suppliers at work. The ac's I can get at napa .I tried running a set of autolites of equivalent and was not happy at all. Im particular to running what the manufacture calls for I know the ai...

ok first question , is your vent built into the cap of the fill? The perko all in one caps are horrible they make a spacer to shim the fill up so water doesnt puddle . If its a standard fill make sure the oring is correct . and the vent points aft. Expanding and contracting isnt your issue a good fu...

The outboards I deal with that are supercharged ,the data stream shows vacuum and not necessarily pressure , i.e. a normal 275 mercury verado is approx -11"hg at idle .That motor is capable of 15 psi of boost under acceleration , which is seen as a 11" hg .Now an engine naturally aspirated at wot sh...

if you staying in indiatlantic you have two close options , You can launch at 3 forks at the end of malabar road .Or at the public launch at the end of sweetwater drive off us 192 by the brevard county airboat club .Depending on day of the week etc there is usually folks riding .The weekends are you...
