[quote]The standard 200 yamaha being an in-line 4 cyl just doesn't have the oomph that the V6 versions do. A 225 SHO or 250 would be ideal on that boat.[/quote] I can attest to this.

I put out a protein feeder recently. I put corn on the bottom, a corn/protein blend, then straight protein pellets on top. Even with corn on the bottom it took the deer a few weeks to figure out what the hell the feeder was. Now I have pics everyday of them with their noses in the chutes. ...

I did 20 of them. I think they were 5 or 7 gallons. 5’ away from fence and 3’ apart as I wanted a hedge. Before I planted I killed the grass and layed a synthetic barrier down. Was actually leftover from roofing job. I cut holes in it where plants went. Then I used bricks to build a bed and filled w...

If the bigger mounts with sliding brackets don’t work, maybe drill a piece of 3/4” plywood to wall in both studs, paint it same color as wall, then mount where you want. Kind of ghetto but should be covered by the tv. ...
