Many boat owners do not include the propeller in their preventive maintenance ritual, even though it is the final determining factor in boat performance, and the most common point of failure. There are a few propeller checks and minor repairs that you can perform yourself to avoid shortening your hard earned weekend at the lake.

First, you must remove the boat propeller from the shaft to inspect it and its components for wear or damage. To remove your propeller, you will need a variety of common hand tools: a pair of pliers, a flathead screwdriver, a rubber mallet, an appropriately sized deep well socket and ratchet, a small two-by-four, and a pair of leather gloves. Depending on the particular make, model, and year of the motor or outdrive, you might not need all the tools listed. If you find that you don’t have a large enough socket for your prop nut, a 12 inch adjustable wrench should do the job.

Although this question may seem basic, there are many variables that come into play when purchasing your first anchor. Environmental conditions (such as weather and lake structure), the size of your craft and the weight of the anchor itself are all significant parts of the puzzle. Perhaps it’s best to look at how an anchor actually works first.

Boat anchors “attach” to the bottom structure of a body of water in order to hold a boat securely. This is done in one of two ways. Firstly, the anchor can penetrate the bottom surface, creating suction through the penetration and the weight of the material above the anchor itself, in turn creating resistance. Secondly, when dealing with hard, rocky bottoms, the anchor actually snags in order to create hold.

Out of the many roles that anchors serve, the most prevalent are securing the boat while fishing, keeping boats away from rocks or dangerous structures, or allowing the occupants to enjoy a relaxing meal on board without drifting away.

Trim tabs are designed to make a boat run smoother, a better pull for a skier as well as pulling people on inflatables.  If you have a boat the escedes 60 miles per hour then you need sport trim tabs, these trim tabs suppor larger boats as well as off shore boats.  With the price of fuel trim tabs will make you boat run much more effecent so you can use your boat more just from adding trim tabs.
