1st post, celebrating 1st day with boat in hand.
Just got this boat from my Father and brought it up from R.I.
1984 20' Steplift with 1989 Mercury 150 Black Max. Needs lots of TLC but the Marina just finished on the Outboard so I'm launching tomorrow. PS PATS own the division.

Man, that boat looks like it could tell some stories....good luck with it! Welcome to the cult as we like to say around here. Keep us posted with info from your first trip.
PS I'll leave that Pats comment alone but Charlie the Tuna may go ballistic.

Oil Press Alarm
Had the boat out for 6 hours total this weekend. Got the Oil Press alarm in (comming from throttle assembly) on each cold start. Alarm stayed in until cowl lifted and cover removed from aux oil tank on engine and then replaced. Had over two gallons in main tank (under seat) and aux tank almost full. each cold start this happened and would only clear by the process mentioned above. I suspect a vacum leak but not sure. BOAT RAN GREAT otherwise. Up to Bush Compound (Kennebunk and down to York. Great time.

Should NEVER admit How STUPID I can Be
Along with Trailer lights, Safety Chains, Hitch, Boat Tie Downs, Fuel, Oil, Water (drinking), Fishing Equip, All the standard on Board Safety Equip, Batteries Charged, I should REALLY remember Handle for my winch, and The BILDGE PLUG. Had the boat out last weekend and all was GREAT, in shop this week, Vacum leak on Oil Tank, and did NOT check bildge Plug... Got 10 minutes from DOCK,delayed at dock as I forgot handle for winch, and had over 400 gallons of water in boat. Made it back to dock to discover cause. I am making a check list NOW.
