I looked hard at that boat myself when I was shopping - very well designed layout.

Unless I missed it, you didn't give us the most important detail - what color did you order?

If you plan to...

You may need to price it a bit lower than comparable boats, if you feel there isn't a strong market for it in your area. It's not uncommon for buyers to travel for the right boat, and a cost saving...

Finally had to chance to get the cowl off and take a closer look.

As HRG suggested, it was coming from above, not from the ram.

There was oil mixed with water sitting in the bottom of the...

Heck no. That would have made far too much sense. I'll check that and report back. Thanks!

Leaking Trim Ram?

Got to the launch ramp yesterday and found this milky fluid all over the port side trim ram on my 2017 Verado 250 Pro. So I packed up and went home - didn't launch.

Any ideas what's going on? I...

Ranger storage compartment finishes

Anyone know why the storage compartments on the starboard side of the FS boats are carpeted, while the ones on the port side are gelcoated? Just seems odd.

Good point. Probably not, other than a lot of friction. I doubt it would swivel in the base, but what I could do is rather than cutting the tab off, I could drill a rivet out of one pedestals and...

It was off by 3-4 ticks on the Harbor Freight dial indicator I bought. It is significant. I can rotate the prop with my finger on the edge of the prop (on the side toward the engine) and feel a...

I couldn't find any information on how to do that. In hindsight, the cover on top of the engine probably comes off, exposing the flywheel. What I did was to reinstall the spark plugs, hit the start...

I do have insurance, which paid for the new lower unit last year. I didn't hit anything this year. The prop was repaired last year and I'm wondering if each blade isn't exactly the same now, if...

I've heard that they will be making 4 strokes as well, most recently from a boat dealer. Probably still a rumor at this point, but it makes sense, even though they appear to be so committed to 2...

Verado wobbly prop?

While winterizing, I noticed my prop looks like it might be wobbling. It's a Verado 250 Pro.

I did hit a rock reef last year and the prop shaft was slightly bent, and prop was damaged. The lower...

Did you cut the tab off of the plastic stem, or did you drill out the rivet and remove the stem entirely?

Ranger seat pedestals

I find the pedestals difficult to remove due to the tab at the base of the pedestal that needs to be depressed as the pedestal is pulled out. I have to remove the seat from the pedestal first, then...

You might want to post this question on Outdoors First. They have a Tuffy forum so you're probably more likely to find someone familiar with your boat there.

Maybe a couple of layers of coremat with a layer of fiberglass mat over it?

Just curious - what year is your 620? Wondering if that's a known issue that I've just never heard of in a Ranger.

I think you might be right. I'm taking the boat in for a few minor warranty issues soon, so I'll have the dealer check that.
