A: Four-stroke or two-stroke, the
best way to store them is in
the fully upright vertical position, (not
trimmed out). This allows the cooling
water to drain out of the block and
prevents any damage due to freezing.
The oil pan on the four strokes are
below the powerheads, so leaving
them in the upright position is fine.
Q: What do people do to keep
their trash from blowing
around in the boat?
A: I like soft-sided duffle bags
and coolers for general storage
and of course you should carry a few
garbage bags but here is a neat way
for boaters, hikers and campers to
separate wet bathing suits, toiletries,
food and garbage without regard to
having the “right size” bag. There’s a
product called Knot-a-Bag (available
at most marine chandlerys) that is a
tube. Just pull out any size bag you
need from the little dispenser and
knot it. It's perfect for trash, travel,
storing fish and carrying wet clothes.
Q: With a trailer size boat, can
you cook food on board or do
you need to live on cold fare like
sandwiches?
A: There are many small size
marine-type BBQs available
now and they use little disposable
propane canisters. or you can go for a
removable pedestal mount that you
can install outside on your boat’s
swim platform. ●
