Don,
Oxygen, (air) is required as well as fuel for combustion. The 9.9 "breathes" through the rear of the cover at the handhold. Check this area for restrictions.

Bob, Allezcat was the first 36 and premiered at the 91Annapolis show. After two years charter service in the BVI, we purchased her and still believe we have the best boat to meet our needs of coastal cruising to the Bahamas. Another plus has been the wonderful friends we've made through the PDQ Owne...

Noise
Tom, I have installed Tempo rubber cushions on the transom mounts. This helps a little but not convinced its worth the cost and effort. I wonder if some soundproffing material under the access hatches might help?

Bahamas Bound
To the PDQers headed for Georgetown this year a couple things come to mind. Garmin now has incorporated the "Explorer Charts" on its chart software (Bluecharts) for the Bahamas. I find these charts very useful. The paper versions are available at most marine stores or http://www.explorer.c...

It seems to me that all sorts of problems start showing up after 1800hrs. I think this is due to overheating from clogged cooling passages from saltwa...

Our Pirate harbor house lost its roofing on one side allowing wind and water to blow down the ceiling into the living room. The carport departed for destinations unknown. One window shattered and several trees blew down but when you see downtown Punta Gorda this is nothing. We sat out the storm in o...

Hi Marc, I've had the same problem on several engines. What a pain! Yamaha has redesigned this system several times. It seems they have made it worse rather than better!
