Buying Evinrude XD 100 Oil For Father’s Day

654654654My dad has been going boating a lot with his friends lately. He had been saving up money for a while and finally got around to purchasing a boat last year for himself. Unfortunately, he got it right before winter, so he hasn’t even had much of a chance to take it out since he found the right boat for him.

Since he’s gotten the boat, however, finding gifts for him has been really easy for our family. We just pick up boating-related things and he’s always pretty ecstatic about them. For instance, I know that for Father’s Day, I’m planning on getting him some bottle of Evinrude XD 100 oil, as well as maybe some items that will help him more easily clean his boat.

It’s Evinrude XD100 or Bust…Literally

DSCN3877Owning a boat can be very expensive. I’m not talking about just the boat itself; I’m talking about the parts and the maintenance. I spent a lot of money on my engine and I want to make sure that it’s getting the best possible care. I change the oil myself every few weeks to make sure there is no carbon buildup that can be potentially damaging.

I noticed that my engine only runs on Evinrude XD100 oil. I asked a mechanic if I was able to use another brand because it can be a bit expensive. He told me that the setting my engine was on requires me to use that specific brand. Then he gave me the name of a store where I can buy some at bulk so it would be cheaper for me in the long run. That was helpful of him because I’m always looking to save a few dollars.

A Hundred Boat Trips

Since my best friend bought a boat a couple years back, he’s been counting the amount of times he’s been able to get it out on the water. Considering he works full-time, he typically only gets a chance to take it out on the weekends, and it’s pretty cold out here, so usually there’s only a window between the end of spring and the beginning of fall that’s appropriate for taking a boat out on the water.

When it was time to take out the boat for its hundredth time, it was a pretty big deal to us. I bought him a bottle of Evinrude XD100 oil as a gift, because he uses it to maintain his boat. When we took it out on the hundredth trip, we gathered as many of our friends as we could to celebrate and we had a really good time.
