Yamaha 2S Oil for the Next Family Vacation

2008-Yamaha-PW80aEvery year since my kids have been old enough to walk, my wife and I have taken the family on a vacation in the summer. We’ve been to theme parks before like Disneyworld and Six Flags and sometimes we go to places where we can go hiking and camping. This year, I want to stick a little bit closer to home, because I want to bring my new boat along with us.

What my wife and I are planning is a trip over to the other side of the state, where there are more lakes and interesting places to camp out and spend time on the water. I’m stocking up on everything I’m going to need for my boat, including maintenance supplies like Yamaha 2M oil, because I want to be able to take my kids fishing for the first time.

Optimax Oil for an Indecisive Boater

lcgreenbowMy best friend has always been a bit on the indecisive side, especially when it comes to choosing things that he wants to purchase. He’s got a lot of buyer’s anxiety so whenever he decides to go shopping, he usually grabs me or one of our other friends to go along with him so that we can help guide him towards what he needs or reassure him that he’s making the right purchase.

His most recent stressful purchase was a boat; he brought all of his friends along to help him make that decision. We also helped him figure out the other basic items that he would need to go along with his boat for general maintenance. For instance, we chose Optimax oil because it was the perfect choice to go with his boat’s outboard motor.

Using Brands like Mercury Engine Oil

mercury-outboard-propellersI’ve been burned before when using off-brand merchandise that’s not as well-known as the main brands. It took a few times for this to happen, but everything from food to oil seems to be better when you go for the name-brand merchandise. If you’ve ever had off-brand toaster pastries or microwave dinners, you’ll likely understand what I’m talking about.

This is especially important when it comes to products that could be used to ensure your safety, particularly in regards to vehicles that you use regularly. Obviously, whenever you’re doing work on a boat, you want to make certain that you will be safe when you’re on the water, so using brand names like Mercury engine oil or Yamalube is very important

Doing One’s Own Maintenance with Evinrude XD 100 Oil

service department_376f4aEver since I was a child, I’ve always been very responsible. My mother can tell stories about how I would always go out of my way to take very good care of my toys and I always took extra measures to stay safe and never break anything. As an adult, I think that I still have that sort of responsible attitude, especially when it comes to the ‘toys’ that I have fun with now.

In this case, those ‘toys’ would be my car and my boat and I am well-known amongst my friends for meticulously taking care of both of them. I always do my own maintenance on them because I don’t trust that mechanics will care for them as much as I do, which is why I always keep a stock of the motor oil that I need, such as Evinrude XD 100 oil.

Changing Your Boat Motor Oil

4d5d43_55893a3319e6911874a50252611a4b42.jpg_512Learning how to change the oil in my boat’s outboard motor has ultimately saved me so much time and money, because I don’t have to take it in to mechanics and spend a fortune having someone else do something so simple. Obviously, it’s quite a bit different from changing a car’s oil, but it’s still something that’s absolutely worth learning overall.

Generally, learning how to change the oil is something that is described in the manual that was purchased with the boat or with the outboard. The overall process tends to be draining the boat motor oil completely and then adding the oil from the drain hole. Once you’ve figured out to do these things, you’re pretty much able to change your boat’s oil!

Fishing Line, Bait, and Ringfree Plus

P1191597I went to a fishing supply store recently because I had been planning a fishing trip for a while and I was need of some supplies. I had to pick up some of the essentials like fishing line and some extra bait, because I was running low on all of that stuff after the last big fishing trip that I went on with my buddies. I also was considering purchasing a new fishing rod.

I like to ensure that I’ve got all of the top of the line gear when I’m fishing, which is why I was thinking about getting a new rod, though I ultimately decided that the rods that I already had would do just fine. While I was there, I also picked up some fuel additives like Ringfree Plus for my boat; I only like to use the best products on my boat after all.

Going for a Swim Thanks to Yamalube 2W Oil

2010-08-29_11.53.50I think that swimming is a great way to exercise. It works out more of your muscles than running would and personally, I find it to be a lot more fun than running even if it does tend to be quite a bit more exhausting overall. I don’t have a pool, but I live close to a lake that varies in depth, which is usually where I go for a swim when it’s nice outside.

I generally prefer to swim in areas that aren’t unsafe due to the depth, since I like to swim by myself. Usually, what I’ll do is take my boat out to an area of the lake where I know it isn’t too deep and then I’ll swim around it. Before I do so, I always make sure to use Yamalube 2W oil on my boat so that I don’t run into any issues when I take it out.

Two Cycle Oil for the Man Who Has Everything

optimax.3.gallonsWhat do you get for the man who has everything? That’s a question I always find myself asking whenever I’ve got to purchase a gift for my older brother. He’s doing pretty well for himself and he’s not really the type to wait around until Christmas or his birthday to get something that he wants. Unfortunately, this sometimes makes it hard to think of an appropriate gift.

Usually, I like to get something that I know he uses a lot or something perishable. For instance, I’ll get him some sort of foodstuffs that will be easily prepared and delicious. Or instead I’ll get him some two cycle oil for his boat, since I know he takes it out so often that he goes through it constantly. Even though it’s tough to buy gifts for him, I always figure something out!

Yamalube 2M Oil and My Son’s First Fishing Trip

Shields 6-20-09 002I’m taking my young son on his first boating and fishing trip next weekend. He’s just old enough to be able to use a small children’s fishing pole and smart enough to keep his lifejacket on when I tell him it’s dangerous to take it off. As someone who has always been a huge fan of boating and fishing, I’m really excited to share this experience with my son.

Since I want to make sure this is a good memory for him, I’ve been trying to ensure that everything goes smoothly. I’ve been double and triple checking the weather every day so that I can make sure it’ll be nice outside on the day that we’re going. I’ve also been doing all the proper maintenance that I can on my boat with Yamalube 2M oil to ensure it’ll work fine.

Yamaha Oil for Morning Fishing

036700_headlineI really love fishing, but I don’t do it as often as I would like to, mostly because I know that the best time to go fishing is bright and early in the morning, and I’m not exactly a morning person. I’m someone who has difficulty getting up for work in the morning and without that early-morning cup of coffee that I always make sure to have, I wouldn’t even be able to handle that.

Whenever I decide to go fishing, I try to get a lot done the evening before so that I don’t have to use my morning brain to make too many decisions. I get all the maintenance done that I need with Yamaha oil and I put all of the gear that I’m going to need in my car and hitch my boat to the car. As long as I get in bed really early and have coffee when I wake up, I can handle myself.

Lakeside with Mercury 2 Stroke Oil

sloaneboatLiving on the side of a lake has a huge number of benefits, especially when summertime rolls around. There are all kinds of great things that we can do when guests come over. Obviously, we’re able to go for a swim out there, which is really nice. We’re also able to go fishing whenever we want. However, the most fun thing for us to do is to take people out on our boat.

Since our gatherings with friends are often more impromptu than they are planned, we like to make sure that our boat is always properly maintained. That’s why we always make sure to keep a solid stock of Mercury 2 stroke oil on hand so that the boat is always in good shape before we take it out for a spin on the lake with our friends.
