FAQ

How do I find the year of my outboard motor?

Due to the many methods outboard manufacturers use to identify engine model years, it is best for you to call us with the following information and we can advise you correctly. Engine make, model and serial/frame number

 

What are the recommenced service intervals for my outboard motor?

Different engine manufacturers have varying recommended service intervals, we strongly recommended that you have your outboard motor serviced once a year or every 100 hours of operation.(which ever comes first).  This ensures your engine is performing at its peak at all times and provides piece of mind for those long fishing trips or family days on the water

 

What is the recommended oil/fuel ratio for my pre-mix 2 stroke outboard?

Most pre-mix outboards operate at a 50 ;1 fuel / oil ratio, there are some that only require a 100:1 uel oil ratio

Contact us in store for the correct mixture ratio for your outboard motor

 

Are banana’s really bad luck to take out when fishing?

There are many myths and theories around bananas on boats, here is one answer we found.

One theory originates with speedy boats transporting bananas. Since they spoil quickly, boats trafficking bananas were rushed through the waters, giving anglers on board little chance to catch fish. This fast pace kept anglers from catching much of anything while trolling, and bananas were directly blamed when they were indirectly the problem.

 

Should I flush my  outboard motor after use? If so, how do I do this?

Flushing your engine, as outlined in the owner’s manual, is imperative to the longevity of your investment. Flushing options can vary across the different models.

Please contact us for the best option for your outboard motor make and model. 09 818 5604
