As a HS kid growing up in what is now Palmetto Bay, my buddies and I (especially on holiday weekends) would get a six pack or two and hang out at the boat ramp at Matheson Hammock Park. GREAT entertainment!! (especially on holiday weekends) 🤣
We've had a 89 Chris Craft Amero Sport 412 for many years, 35,000 when we bought it on Ebay and it's been the most reliable boat you can imagine, absolutely Love it!
My dream flats/bay boat is a 24ft Pathfinder with a T-top for shade and LED lights mounted on the T-top for night fishing around mangroves and dock lights/snook lights
They have a problem because they don't do any maintenance on them plain and simple. Weather it's battery, air, fuel, spark,overheating because ya don't flush...the list goes on and on.
Both engines died on the Boston because he had a fuel delivery problem. He possibly had his tank switches off and he coasted out on what was in the lines or maybe not. Who really knows.
When will these people learn to drop the tailgate or pop the hatch so they can actually see the trailer? I’m 56 and have been backing trailers since I was 11 years old when we bought a ranch and that’s the first thing I figured out. My dad didn’t teach me because he had never owned a trailer so I had to learn it on my own. He was a pretty useless dad.
Had a buddy who bought brand new boat with a merc on it one week in engine failed they played the game with him but eventually put a new outboard on the boat guess what 2 weeks after engine went again MERCURY SUCKS in so many ways wouldn’t run one on my boat if it was given to me
I have noticed that most of the boaters r jump threw there ass boaters . , where’s the rope, your still tied to the trailer , and so on. You would think that they would charge there boat the day befor , put gas in the boat , heck for bumpers , there a rear joke, a funny

Agree, nice flats boat but needs double power poles.
Growing up on the gulf coast I was always told never buy a black motor 😮
good stuff, happy father's day, Mr Montaner
Thanks Timmiuli

Get a 20’ telescoping rod and put a camera on it. No more shot block.
Just when I think that the chit show is going have a good day the Hialeah boaters show up 😂😂
Happy Fathers Day!😊
Thanks Kathleen
I used to work at the Mercury plant it really is incredible
Chico and the man are the best mechanics

The flat boat would be terrible in bad weather I think
Yes!
Contact Mercury Marine up near Saint Cloud and see if they will give you a tour at lake X, thats where they test out new expermintal engines.
We watch a guy from lacrosse(team marine I think) and he says mercury .. has alot of problems.

You are correct on that and in addition to that that guy needs to do a better job at having his engines maintained
The new boat with the 300 Merc. also needs double power poles. Having double poles keeps your boat from spinning around with the current or wind.
Power poles are a joke.
What a disaster ... a boat being affected by wind and current .... how could anyone cope without a few thousand $ of equipment on the stern?
4-door jeeps are a little heavier than 2-doors. But agree jeeps aren't your best tow vehicle option

Bet he could cook some good meth
Merry Christmas Alfred !! Thanks for keeping us entertained at the boat ramp.
Merry Christmas Kevin !
Are bumpers outlawed there? No one seems to use them.
2 motors that quit like that is most likely water in the fuel. Could be voltage, though.
He might of had a dirty fuel filter if he has 1 main tank for fuel. Captain Keith
Call Fishman Joe he's cheaper than captain Lance
What is that vertical accessory with the white lettering on it??
Thanks
What happened to the grandpa boat I never seen it finished. Did you take it out. Just curious
If I'm spending that kind of money on a boat, I'm quite sure that I'm not putting Mercurys on there. Yamaha is King 👑

Love the Johnson 200 ocean pro.
If Fred eats you we need to put it on the chit show bro !!!! 😂😂😂
You're a *monster!* 😁
I’ve heard mercury are great engines …. People are buying in price points that’s all
Black point marina is the best place to learn how to drive a boat
Cool
Does anyone stage their boats at Black point? Unbelievable

Yo Captain 😅
WAIT!!!! you've never backed a trailer and yet you sit and criticize everyone doing it!?!? WOW! talk about the pot calling the kettle black....
That isn’t what he said at all.
I don't think that's the pot calling the kettle black. Also that's not really what is happening.
i can't back a trailer but I can tell what someone is doing wrong.
