Bass Boats

The weight of a 17.5 ft fiberglass bass boat typically ranges from 1,200 to 1,600 pounds, depending on the design and features. Factors such as the boat's construction, materials used, and additional equipment like motors and electronics can also influence its overall weight. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for the most accurate information.

For a 90hp Mercury two-stroke outboard, you should use a high-quality lower unit gear lube specifically designed for outboard motors. Mercury recommends using their own brand of gear lube, such as Mercury High-Performance Gear Lube or Quicksilver Gear Lube, which offer excellent protection against wear and corrosion. Always check the owner's manual for specific recommendations regarding viscosity and any additional requirements.

A 1979 Eldocraft bass boat typically weighs around 1,200 to 1,500 pounds without the trailer. The exact weight can vary depending on the specific model and any additional features or modifications.

Hard to believe, but the current record for fastest speed on the water was set by Ken Warby in the Spirit of Australia way back in October 8th of 1978. His speed was 317.596 mph.

After setting the world record of 276.33mph Donald Campbell in Bluebird K7, attempted to break the 300mph barrier in 1966. He reached a peak speed of 315mph on his first run, with over 320mph on his second run. Sadly however, he died after he crashed on this record breaking pass. This of course meant that it is unofficial.

The first steam-powered boat was a paddle steamer built in France but the idea was not developed any further. Similar boats were made in 1785 in Philadelphia and in Scotland. But, commercially viable steamboats were not made until the beginning of the 19th century.

Modern shipbuilding practice is to build ships in several subassemblies, called blocks. The blocks are constructed from the ground up, and loaded with as much outfitting (piping, electrical wiring, equipment) as possible. The blocks are built on the ground, and then erected onto the ship. The size of the blocks depends on the shipyards lifting capacity. The larger the blocks, the more efficient the build cycle is. Once all the blocks are erected onto the ship, the ship is then launched into the water where final production work is done, and the ship is tested. An incline test is performed to test the stability of the vessel. Before delivery of the vessel to the customer, the building yard will conduct a sea trials.
