As we move forward in 2016, I first want to thank all our
customers for their crucial help in getting us to this point. For the new customers, I want to say “Welcome”. There are a lot of questions about boat
parts. Questions like, “…will this fit
my boat?”, “...this is broken, what do I need to fix it?” and “…what comes in the
kit?”. We don’t always have the answer
at our finger tips, but we do know how to find out. We like to think that one of the things that
separates us from a bunch of the other choices you have, we have a phone
number! This may not seem like much, but
it is surprising to see the number of websites with no number. They typically include excuses like “in order
to keep overhead costs low”, “email is the fastest way to get a response” and
others. Well not here! You can call 208-650-7200 and reach someone
at <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/">BargainBoatParts.com</a>. If we receive a
call, but we are tied up with another customer-we will call you back. We pride ourselves on the fact that all calls
received during business hours will be returned the same day!<o:p></o:p></div>

Now is the time to inspect and repair the trailer. Here is a quick checklist:<br />
<br />
-Make sure your <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7187-trailer-couplers.aspx">coupler, hitch and hitch ball</a> are all the same size<br />
-Make sure your <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7187-trailer-couplers.aspx?pagenum=2">safety chains</a> are proper length and secured to the trailer.<br />
-All fasteners are properly tightened<br />
-Wheel lug nuts are properly tightened<br />
-Check the condition of your <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7194-manual-winches-accessories.aspx">winch strap and winch</a><br />
-Make sure you have proper transom straps and tie downs. Your winch strap is not a tiedown!<br />
-Check your trailer <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7198-trailer-brakes.aspx">tire condition and air pressure</a>, and don't forget the spare<br />
-Check to see if your <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7198-trailer-brakes.aspx">brakes</a> are properly adjusted and in good condition (if equipped)<br />
-Check all <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7190-trailer-side-lights.aspx">lighting</a> to insure it is all working and visible<br />
<br />
Performing any repairs to your trailer is much easier with the boat off, and preventing any failures is always a good idea. Of course if you need any parts or item for your trailer <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-7174-trailer.aspx">BargainBoatParts.com</a> has you covered.<br />
<br />
Happy and Safe Boating!<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Now is the time of year, that cabin fever sets in for
sure. The holidays are over and all we
can do is think about the warm sunny days on the water. This is time of year is also a good time to
go for a walk. That is a walk around
your boat. Now is a good time to do a thorough
walk around your boat, and be looking for upcoming failures. But don’t just walk around with a sharp eye
and think that is good enough. If you
are a sailboater, now is a great time to check your <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/c-7021-sailboat-rigging-lines.aspx">rigging</a>. Look closely at the sheets and <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/c-7058-halyards.aspx">halyards</a>, making
sure nothing fraying. Look at the <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/c-7095-standing-wire.aspx">stays and shrouds</a>,
trying to identify corrosion of any type.

and make sure there is no corrosion between the body and threaded ends. Powerboaters, look over your cooling
system. If not done at winterize, remove
the <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/c-6904-engine-driven-pumps.aspx">impeller</a>
for proper inspection. If you have a
closed loop cooling system, test the <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/c-6643-anti-freeze.aspx">antifreeze</a> and
look for a rust color in the <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/c-6643-anti-freeze.aspx">antifreeze</a>. Look at your <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-5909-anchor-dock.aspx">ground tackle</a>,
and make sure the <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/c-5909-anchor-dock.aspx">rode and chain</a>
are in good shape. Check your shackles,
and make sure they are also in good condition.
Remember the better the inspection you do now, the less likely a breakdown
or failure will keep you off the water this summer. Also, remember <a href="http://bargainboatparts.com/">BargainBoatParts.com</a> is there to help
you find any replacement parts you need should you identify potential problems.<o:p></o:p></div>

Although the PCOC is not the only form of competency that Canada will recognize, it is the most common form. If you are caught driving a motorized boat without proof of competency, you can be fined $250 plus provincial administration fee. The test to obtain a PCOC cover boating topics from safety equipment to sharing waterways with other users. To find out more about obtaining PCOC you can go to <a href="http://www.boatingsafety.gc.ca">www.boatingsafety.gc.ca.</a> You can test online or complete a training course found at on site location near you. <br /><br />Good Luck and Happy/Safe Boating!<br /><a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com">BargainBoatParts.com</a>BargainBoatParts.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11883500998373842028noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439000801880682520.post-16022551425726157732009-08-31T15:52:00.001-07:002009-08-31T15:54:43.160-07:00Winterizing Your BoatFirst and foremost, if you are new to boating, please take your boat to a trusted professional to winterize your boat. This step of maintenance is quite likely the most important, and some insurance companies will not pay for lack of maintenance.<br /><br />That being said, if you are an experienced boater and know the workings of your boat this could be quite helpful and help cut down on maintenance costs. There are 3 types of engines I will discuss for winterizing, Inboard engines, Inboard/Outboard engines and Outboard engines. If your boat is used in a saltwater environment, first flush the system with fresh water to help push out the corrosive saltwater. You can do this using our motor flusher attachment. Then proceed as follows.<br /><br /><br /> First add fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank. It is important to follow the steps written on the bottle to make sure you add the appropriate amount of stabilizer to fuel. It is recommended to keep the fuel tank as full as possible when in storage to minimize condensation that can build in your fuel tank. Start and run your engine making sure to supply the engine with adequate fresh water to keep the engine cool. Bring the engine up to operating temperature and shut off. Now change the engine oil and oil filter. (Shown here if needed). Now remove the engine block drain plugs, as well as all other drain plugs as indicated in your owner’s or service manual. If you need a manual click here. Remember to drain all accessories that may be on your boat, showers, sinks, heaters and heads for example. Reinstall all the drain plugs you removed. Now is where you need to get a little creative. By visiting your local hardware store you should be able to rig up a bilge pump to attach to your motor flusher. Then drop the bilge pump into a 5 gallon bucket filled with RV antifreeze with a rating of at least –50 degrees. Connect your pump to a 12 volt power source and start the engine. BE CAREFUL! Only run the engine while the bilge pump is feeding the RV antifreeze and shut off immediately when it reaches the bottom of the bucket. Also the RV antifreeze will be exiting the exhaust of your boat, and should be reclaimed either in a bucket or some other device to stop it from leaking on the ground of shop floor. After the engine is shut off, allow to sit for a few minutes, recheck your engine oil level and check for oil leaks. With a can of fogging oil, remove the spark arrestor or air plenum and spray liberally into the carburetor in all venturies. Replace the air plenum or spark arrestor. Remove the spark plugs and liberally spray fogging oil into the cylinders and replace the spark plug into the cylinder head. It may be easier to remove one spark plug at a time to insure the wires go back on in the same order as they came off. This is also a good time to inspect the condition of your spark plugs, they should have a chocolate brown electrode. Any other color of build up on your spark plug could indicate problems, and signal the need to take into a professional service center. Now disable the boat, so it will not start, which can be as easy as switching the emergency kill switch to “off”. Now crank the engine for about 30-45 seconds and shut the switch off. Now that the fogging oil has coated the internal portion of the engine, apply fogging oil to a shop rag and wipe down the exterior of the engine. This helps from corrosion build up on your engine. Now disconnect the battery, always removing the negative side first. A battery has the best chance of surviving the winter if it stored in a warm dry environment, but sometimes that is not an option. If your boat is an inboard, check the transmission oil level and condition and make sure if equipped the transmission drain has been removed and reinstalled. Now your inboard is ready for storage. If you have an inboard/outboard (sterndrive) or an outboard you have some more work to do. On the sterndrive unit or lower gearcase on an outboard remove the bottom drain plug and place an oil pan underneath to catch the oil. Now remove the upper fill plug and vent plug if it has one. On some models, you’ll need to remove the gear lube bottle fill cap located on the engine. Pay close attention to condition of the oil, if it is milky water has contaminated the system and the gearcase mat need resealed. If it has metal shavings or flakes, it may indicate gear failure and should be taken to a professional service center. Now refill the gearcase with the recommended oil as prescribed in your service manual, our gear lube selection is here. Your application may require an oil pump to fill the gearcase. IMPORTANT fill the gearcase from the bottom grain plug up to the fill level. Air can become trapped if it is filled from the top down! Reinstall the bottom drain plug and the upper fill plug and vent plug, or fill bottle cap. Now remove the propeller and inspect the propeller shaft seal, it is not uncommon to find fishing line wrapped around here and if caught soon enough it will save a costly repair. Lube the propeller shaft with spline grease. If needed, now would be the ideal time to have your propeller repaired or tuned up. Before storage it is a good idea to clean the outside and inside (including bilge) as it will be easier to remove a lot of the contamination before it dries on all winter.<br /><br /> Please keep in mind this is a recommendation of procedures from BargainBoatParts.com and in no way is it meant as a replacement for your specific models service manual. BargainBoatParts.com will not held responsible if these procedures are followed and failure still occurs, as all models and applications can be different.<br /><br />Hope to see you all next year for more Happy and Safe Boating!BargainBoatParts.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11883500998373842028noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439000801880682520.post-30438009346961237722009-06-14T10:25:00.000-07:002009-06-14T10:51:32.574-07:00Ethanol in GasolineFirst off, what is ethanol? It is ethyl alcohol used to oxygenate gasoline. It is a combustible, but only burns at higher temperatures and slower then traditional gasoline. It has been widely accepted as a "flex fuel" additive in automobiles, but its effect in marine applications is detrimental. Ethanol is the same ethyl alcohol found in alcoholic spirits, or regular alcohol adults can enjoy at bars and parties, but your boat motor will not party when ethanol finds its way into the motors fuel system. Ethanol bonds and attracts water and then forces it through the fuel system. A little water going through the carburetor or fuel injection system is probably going to go unnoticed to the boat owner, but remember your boat is operating in and around water all the time! So unlike your car, your boat fuel system is much more likely to attract unsafe amounts of water. Too much water in your fuel can cause poor running conditions in your <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"></span>carburetor or naturally aspirated engine. In your fuel injected system, severe damage can occur to both the fuel pump and the injectors!<br /><br />But it gets worse for outboard users! Small passages through outboard carburetor orrifices, will not allow the water to pass through. Gasoline and water do not posses the same surface tension, so as a result small passages that gas will go through, water won't. With fuel injected outboards, the water will cause costly damage to fuel pumps and injectors!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">What can you do?<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></span>Of course prevention is the most important maintenance tip there is. By adding a <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/p-6194-fuel-water-separator-kit.aspx">fuel/water separator ki</a>t to your boat will help eliminate water in your fuel.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span> </span>Need help finding one? <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/p-6194-fuel-water-separator-kit.aspx">Click Here.</a> It installs quickly and easily and saves tenfold in future repair costs. You should check and replace your fuel/water filter twice a year to insure its reliability. But it doesn't stop there, adding <a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/p-6720-fuel-stabilizer-8-oz.aspx">fuel stabilizer</a> to your gas can keep gasoline from turning bad. Regular untreated gasoline can turn bad in as little as 30 days! You can use<a href="http://www.bargainboatparts.com/p-6720-fuel-stabilizer-8-oz.aspx"> fuel stabilizer</a> as a preventative, or everytime you fill up! <br /><br />I hope these tips can help, and keep you on the water.
