Drained the Volvo Penta today and got it ready for the upcoming freeze. Made a quick video showing the process and where all the drain points are. This is on an early 2000s Volvo Penta 8.2 GSi big block. But the process is pretty similar on a lot of Mercruisers and Volvo Penta V8s Will hopefully hav...

There are a bunch of photos in this folder, and one long video that i took today. Let me know if that works for you, if not I can upload the video to youtube instead: https://photos.app.goo.gl/cy2Y3BH1Dw6u9mCu7

Lowered to $39k

What is the HIN? That will tell you everything. It is FGE92020D999 Built in April 1999 and it's a 1999 model. Must have built a few of the 292 models in late 1999 model year. Not sure when they start production normally on the next year's model. https://unitedstatesvessel.us/faq/how-do-you-read-a-h...

We finally decided to sell our 292. It has been a wonderful boat for our family, but we just don't get time to use it often anymore.

Our 292 officially for sale. Finally got time to take some photos. It's dirty, it needs a buff/wax, all maintenance is up to date and it's ready for a new owner. We just don't get time to hit the lake as often as we used to. Time for a new family to enjoy it as much as we did. Call, text, or email: ...

Nice job matching the street lamps!

I had to read that twice before I got it.

Pulled Coby (our Cobalt) from storage yesterday to de-winterize it and rinse it off. Hoping to get on the water with the kids sometime in March if work slows down.

This is what its looked like docked at TRL last June

Looks great!

I decided against the drain plug lights because I actually remove my drain plug after every use. Other than that they seem okay, but I would think that the outdrive would block a lot of light since the drainplug sits right inline with the outdrive.
