Winter boating tips

After loading the boat, let all the water drain out of the boat and motor. Trim the motor all the way down and start the motor for two to three seconds to remove all the water.If you think you have enough warm clothes, bring some more; you can always shed clothing. It's important to keep every body part covered, including your hands and face.Bring a portable propane heater to dry and warm your hands, and whatever else needs warming.Wear a lifejacket and always keep it on. The water is extremely cold, and you're wearing a lot of clothes that will get heavy if you fall overboard.

Basic kinds of marine engines
-
There are three basic kinds of marine engines and three types of fuel delivery systems. Engine types include outboard, inboard, and stern drive. Each has its own advantages, but the most popular-at least for pleasure boats-is the stern drive engine. It involves an on board engine that drives the boat through a shaft powering the propeller beneath the craft.The three types of fuel delivery systems are direct-fuel-injection, electronic fuel injection, and carbureted fuel systems. If being ecologically responsible is a priority, you might choose to avoid the two-stroke carbureted system. Although they are most affordable and simplest to keep in running order, they are known polluters and they are definitely not known for conserving gas. They also have a high oil-to-gas ration, requiring 2.5 ounces of oil per gallon of fuel. Carbureted fuel systems do offer fast acceleration, though, and lots of power. Pleasure boaters particularly like them for bass fishing and water skiing.Direct-fuel-injection is more expensive up front, but it is cheaper to operate. Fuel goes directly to the cylinders for better fuel efficiency. Emissions are low, as well. They idle as smoothly as silk and are not given to vapor lock in warm weather. Similarly, electronic fuel injection offers low emissions and unvarying distribution of air and fuel. It offers great throttle response and regular cold engine starts.

Boating to save gas
-
The boating market today is flooded with four-stroke outboard engines equipped with electronic fuel injection, which get 25 percent better fuel use than the older two-stroke outboards.Make sure the engine has the right prop. If the prop is too big or small, fuel economy will suffer. If the prop is too big, the engine will burn more fuel to get on a plane. If the prop is too small, it will require the engine to turn up more RPMs to find the sweet spot.
