hermanmullins Report post Posted June 27, 2020 Carl, can you give me more information. Then I can see about getting it corrected. In the mean time, if you haven't already done so, try rebooting your computer. Sometimes it helps. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dbenoit Report post Posted August 4, 2020 Taylor's Point.We are directly across the street from the Maritime Academy. Canal to the left, bay to the right and the marina very close. When in the canal during tide changes it can be creepy and pack spare shorts. I've been out there plenty of times and thought this was it. One of the reasons for a Boston Whaler.

dbenoit Report post Posted August 8, 2020 Anyone know a good Mercury Outboard techie? Want to replace 2002 smart craft gauges. Can’t see thru the lens anymore. Thanks, David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted August 8, 2020 Yes but he is in Plano, Texas. His name is Buck and works at Plano Marine. One of the best I have ever seen. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dbenoit Report post Posted August 12, 2020 My Merc gauges are in bad condition. They monitor almost everything. They work fine but you can barely see thru the lens now. I was going to try and change them out with new but didn't know if I could just plug em in. I finally found a place that will replace the lens a lot cheaper than new. No DIY for those units.

wildebill308 Report post Posted August 12, 2020 David that's good news. I was wondering if polishing them with the same kit that they use on headlights might work. Replacements sound like a better deal. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
