Not sure I would let up on BRP that easy...if in fact you feel they are responsible. You would have to make sure all the maintenance was done and documented etc etc.... Then if you still don't get resolve.......ditch it.

I will tell you though, I never would have called my insurance company before finding out if it was covered or not. There is more than one way to skin a cat......

took boat out for the first time this year - noticed a cuople of probs
guages seem to have died over winter - should get sorted on warranty

unscrewed drain plugs while on slipway and quite a bit of very warm water came out - its obviously warm because its just under the engine - but how did it get there?????

there wasnt enough to start the bilge pump while underway- but just wondered where it came from - the only way water can go from the deck to the engine bay is through the ski locker and we didnt do any sub moves - so was wondering if the exhaust cooling system has an 'overflow' inside the engine compartment or maybe it has a leak????

any ideas - has anyone else noticed this????

I hope it wasn't yellow? Were you by yourself or did you have others on board?

See if it happens again............. Shouldn't be any overflow but if it wasn't much and doesn't happen again, I wouldn't worry too much. Did you wash the boat lately or anything like that? Did you have the drain plugs out before you put the boat in the water, and what I mean is did you tow the boat with the drain plugs out and back half way down the ramp before putting the drain plugs in?

Basically what I am saying is, did you check the engine bay before you went out?

GET THE 3M........ Ya its a bit more money but you will have no problems down the road as you may with other adhesives.

Good Question.....

my guess, is the setup of weight distribution. But just a SID.......shot in the dark.

hey....a new acronym.

*Towing requires installation of power steering fluid- and automatic tranmission fluid-cooler, both available exclusively from your Honda dealer.Premuim unleaded fuel is recommended when towing above 3500 lbs.

Just 500 more lbs and you will be all grown up Son!!

Not trying to knock anyone here...... I just thought the comment about any SUV tows 3500 lbs was funny.

There was a guy at my work talking about his new SUV/ Cross over vehicle. I asked him what he had and his said a Ford Freestyle....... I almost choked on my sandwich. HELLLLLLOOOO, it is a station wagon with bigger tires. Nothing more.

Anyway, I like the Honda vehicles so nothing against them from me......
