Running Ashore...Need advice for boat repairs
wrote in message
ups.com...
#1 - Problem, frozen power head, broken pull cord assy. Lower unit
maybe good. Stiff when try to turn. Cause, impact damage from running
the boat to shore repeatedly. Need new power head. And pull cord assy.
And water pump rebuild kit.
Perhaps impact damage.... powerheads DO fail... it's an imperfect world.
#2 - Needs new pull cord assy. cause, worn out from constant use.
Broken carburetor. Plastic part on carb. broken off cannot be repaired
need new carb. Motor turns (not frozen) needs pull cord assy.
Pull cords break.... shore has nothing to do with this one.
#3 - Problem, Lower unit bad. Cause, most likely repeated impact from
landing on shore. Pull cord assy. broken Need lower unit and pull cord
assy.
Again... who knows??? Could be shore, could be a failed lower unit. With
THAT many rental boats, I'd expect a powerhead and/or a lower unit to fail
here and there.
