  1. Repowered my boat with a larger motor and am offering this 1996 Mercury 60 hp ELPTO outboard. Includes flush mount controls, prop and remote ignition. Trim Tilt was replaced with a NEW (all metal and cost $1,000) version just over a year ago. Motor runs well and served me well it just is to small for my boat. Winterized properly every year and I only used NON-Ethanol gas. The only issue I had more recently was with key ignition module at the end of last season.

    Since it is no longer on my boat nor connected up, I cannot start it.  I am selling this as is..Parts or whatever.

    Its located on Chatuauqua Lake.

    Anyways, $1,100/BO. Pick up only.

  2. Had an unusual run in with a pleasure boater this evening. I was kayak fishing the break walls and some guy in a bow rider comes over screaming at me...cursing and cursing and telling me I was gonna die. It looked like he was heading from the river to the north gap but saw me and decided to slowly bother the ____ outta me.

     

    Background: I have a 14' Sit on top that is safety orange. I have a safety yellow flag that stand 1-2' above my head and I was wearing a safety yellow bright as day shirt over my vest ( for comfort). There was barely any chop...maybe 6" and I was along the outside of the break walls north of center gap minding my own business and out of the way.

     

    I know the right of way and courtesy rules for power boating (I also have an 18' fishing boat I keep on Chautauqua) and know to get out of the way on the kayak too.

     

    Did I miss some regulation about kayaking on Erie?

     

    Btw...

     

    Caught a bunch of bass and a couple sheepshead so I had fun.
