Ok this may come across as nothing more than old guy bitchin', but I just looked at the Environment Canada website to see how the winds and waves are on the West Coast of the Island and points further North. Currently out of the 12 ocean buoys on the WCVI and Queen Charlottes, 5 of them are out...
Most of the "rational" is comical at best. Lobbying for the complete decimation of any stocks at risk. Certainly they are doing their best to jockey for position for the peak Adam's run Year.......

So the brake pads in my 15 year old 1106 downriggers have finally worn to the point of replacement (again, I replaced them once about 7 years ago) . I phoned up Scotty parts (toll free) in Victoria and they are sending me a couple sets no charge. This old school style of business management...

Or...
Out at thrasher for the past 3 mornings, I was very surprised at the number of boats out there with no registration numbers. I saw 4 of them this morning. Do people just not bother to register their boats when they buy them? What is the fine for no registration numbers? Is this an ignorance...

Thanks in advance for any replies.
Picked up my boat from Parksville boathouse this weekend. It was time to repower so a new 250 Yamaha was on the agenda. It really hurts to do this, but I am hoping this is the last time it will hurt with this boat. I went from a deteriorating 200 Evinrude FICHT to 250 fourstroke.
No more...
Rather than hi-jack the 2 stroke vs. 4 stroke thread I'll start a new one;
I too am looking to re-power. I have experienced DI 2 strokes and pouring $40 + gallon 2 stroke oil into them makes my skin crawl. So which new (2011 or newer) 4 stroke 250 would you buy? Mercury, Yamaha, Honda or...
