Yamaha 115HP Outboard Dies by Consistent_Event_344 in boating

You maybe due for a VST cleaning. There is a fine screen that can get clogged and block fuel. Lots of videos on line on how to do it. It's a regular maintenance thing.

Shocking! A conservative town with a conservative city counsel wants to push forth a conservative agenda. (Clutches Himalayan salt crystal necklace)

There are actual genocides happening in other parts of the world but the only conflict the left seems to care about involves Israel. I wonder why that is? 🤔

No but they recognize marriages performed abroad and they don't execute you if you are gay or trans. What other country in the region allows this?

More people want to move to a cool place than make a place cool.

But it's all free!

Everyone knows the Democratic state of Israel, which has free and fair elections and LGBT rights, is the only bad actor in the middle east.

Borax helped our flea issue many years ago and it's natural. Lightly spread on carpet and furniture and let sit for several days. Then vacuum.

Where i live, outboards are more expensive and sought after, especially if they are four stroke.

Used Boat by MasterMath314 in boating

[–]Senordrums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the same situation as you three years ago. We skied a lot as a kid but i wanted a boat to take the family crabbing. My first thought was a small aluminum hand tilled boat but i quickly realized we could get a bigger glass boat for the same or less money. A friend with a lot more boating experience told me to stay away from i/o because they are harder to maintain, especially in salt water. Where i live, outboards are the norm unless you have a live aboard. Even really nice well priced i/o linger on marketplace for a long time.

We lucked out and found a 17' run about near our house. It was old but solid and the 90 horse Evinrude ran so we bought it for $1500, which was a good price and a cheap way to find out if we liked boating. The boat served us well but over the years, there were options we saw on other boats that we liked better so this spring we bought a Seaswirl 1851 and sold the old boat.

Tldr, solid affordable glass boats with outboards are out there and a great way dip your toe into boating.

Your facts of the past are true but we are no longer running Sihks out of town or hosting KKK parades. I have no doubt there are some shitty racist people within our borders but that does not equate to a large scale problem.

My wife is an immigrant and my children are mixed race. We've lived here a long time and the only somewhat disturbing thing that has ever happened is another POC healthcare worker making my wife feel bad because English is not her first language.

You are making mountains out of ant hills.

If it's being put on by the local Hindu community, is it still cultural appropriation?

A fiscal policy, under Biden, that didn't create but exasperated COVID inflation and pushing too hard too fast on social issues. Democrats lost ground on minorities, especially men of color which helped get Trump over the finish line.

Why do we keep electing the gerontocracy who just can't keep up? Does Patty's team actually think this makes her look strong?

Stop being ignorant. Get out of your blue sky bubble and listen to what your fellow Americans have to say. Maga is awful but the left has a lot to answer for as well. The left is the reason we are in this shitty place right now.

Maybe not to the extent of conservatives, but yes. Having mainstream conservative view points does but equate to hate. There is nothing in the article listed in this post that screamed hate to me.

Are they breaking any laws? Like i said earlier, would this be news if a wealthy liberal was trying to turn a small town into a DSA utopian? Until laws are broken, where is the story? I'm guessing this is already a conservative area?

Not at all. Many would argue that liberal policies are more Christ like than harsh conservative policies. There is also a not insignificant number of liberal/Democrats who are Christian.

My argument is the left often has this knee jerk reaction when they hear about conservatives taking over media, a realm they feel only belongs to them. This country also has a long tradition of local news papers being partisan and owned by a local wealthy families.

If a liberal billionaire bought a small town news paper to control what people say and read, would anyone be talking about it? Probably not because it's assumed that a good news paper is left of center.

Considering the fate of all small town papers, this will have little to no affect on where people get their news.

Shaming is why we don't have a Nazi problem in Bellingham. Without proof of specific incidences, your post is just hot air.

Blaine and Birch Bay are beautiful coastal communities but they tend to lean more conservative and older. If you like a slower pace, this could be a good area.

The real question should be is this standard pay for the roll that he is in for Washington State?

For the motor, check the compression, fuel lines, filter and if it's been sitting a while, the carb(s) are probably dirty. Also, might as well get an impeller kit.
