Sorting Through Rope and Mercury 2 Stroke Oil in My Uncle’s Boat Shed

domo online blog 2 5-5-14Last weekend, my uncle decided that it was probably time for him to reorganize his boat shed, since the shed that he keeps all of his boating gear in is a complete mess most of the time. I went over to help him clean the shed, because it definitely wasn’t something that he could have done by himself. The shed was actually more messy and disorganized than it had been the last time I’d seen it.

He had tangled tie ropes spread across the floor. There were several different fish nets tucked away in odd corners of his shed. He even had a case of Mercury 2 stroke oil, which he hasn’t used since he got rid of his old boat. We were able to clean out the shed and sort through the mess so that everything that is in the shed now is actually something that he needs for his boat.

Buying Mercury Engine Oil for Some Late Maintenance

domo online blog 3 4-28-14My grandfather is usually the type of person who makes sure to get all of his boat maintenance done on time. When his boat comes into the dock at the end of the season, he is quick to pull it out of the water and work on getting the motor ready for the next season. Last season, my grandfather was sick at the end of the season, so his boat didn’t get its maintenance done.

He spent last weekend doing some last minute maintenance on the outboard motor in order to get it ready for this season. He topped off his oil with the Mercury engine oil he had ordered online. He plans on taking his boat out next weekend so that he is able to get it running again and check on some of the other parts of its operation.

Optimal Functioning with Mercury Optimax Oil

domo online blog 2 4-21-14My brother recently decided that it was time to get the old boat that our grandpa has had stored behind his house fixed up and ready for operation. After a couple days of work, he decided that it would be much cheaper to buy a completely new boat motor, than fix the old one. He ended up getting a brand new motor and rigging it on the old boat.

The person that he bought it from recommended Mercury Optimax oil to ensure that the boat motor was functioning at its best. My brother decided to follow that advice and filled the motor with this type of oil. When he finally got to take the old boat out this week, he was impressed by the performance of the old boat.

How Often Should You Change Your 2-Cycle Mercury Oil?

domo online blog 2 4-14-14My brother has been really excited to take his new boat out on the water since he bought it specifically for this season. He has been trying to learn all of the things that a boat owner should know, because in the past he only ever rented boats or borrowed them from friends. My father has been helping him learn about the maintenance schedule of a boat.

He showed my brother where he can find good prices on Mercury oil and, after making fun of him for a while, he explained to him that his outboard motor is a 2-cycle outboard and doesn’t require oil changes. He told him that he just needs to remember to make sure that the oil reservoir is full every time he takes the boat out throughout the day.  It could be a long summer for my dad…I hope it doesn’t kill him…again.

Spring Sailing with Backup Mercury Outboard Oil

domo online blog 3 4-7-14One of my friends owns a large sailboat that he loves to take out in the spring and summer. Since he’s an intelligent sailor, he also has an outboard motor that he keeps in top condition, just in case something terrible should happen to his sailboat. He used to do minimal maintenance on the motor, but one time it wasn’t working when he needed it.

He had a day out on the water where the wind died quickly. He was far out from the harbor so he had to use the motor. Of course, somehow the motor failed to sputter to life and he was stranded and had to call the coast guard. Now he uses Mercury outboard oil to keep the motor in excellent shape so it doesn’t break down when he needs it.

Cycling in Mercury 2 Cycle Oil

domo online blog 3 3-31-14Whenever my uncle went out to the marina, my cousin would go with him. After several times of going out on the water, he started bringing his bike with him to the marina as well. This was because once they got the boat in the water his father would often realize that he’d forgotten something. He would then send his son to go get it.

His dad didn’t want him to get the things from the marina store, because the items were a lot more expensive. Instead, my cousin would have to go much further away to get a good price. He would take his bike and pedal down the road to pick up his father’s Mercury 2 cycle oil or fishing bait or whatever else his father had forgotten that he needed.

Mercury Premium Plus Comes Highly Recommended

domo online blog 2 3-17-14My father loves to hang out on fishing boards online to talk to other fishermen about everything that has to do with fishing. They talk about where they have managed to catch certain types of fish, what lures they have been using, and even what boat motor they have been running. It is a great place to get the information that you need on just about anything fishing related.

When my father wanted to know more about Mercury premium plus motor oil, the people on the website were quick to give him their opinion. They recommended the oil highly, if of course he had a compatible motor. Just about everyone had a glowing review of the product and some people even told him where he could buy it cheaply and easily.

Mixed with Mercury 2 Stroke Oil

domo online blog 4 3-10-14My father has always loved taking his boat out to go fishing. He wakes up really early in the morning so that he can get started. Usually, he makes sure that his boat is completely ready to go the night before, so that he doesn’t have to stop anywhere on his way to the boat launch. The last thing he wants to do is waste any time.

The day before he goes fishing, he’ll fill his gas tank with fuel and mix in the proper ratio of Mercury 2 stroke oil. When this is done, he loads all of the gear that he will need the next day, into the back of his truck. He doesn’t like using live bait, so he doesn’t have to worry about getting this before he goes fishing. In the morning, everything is ready to go.

Boat with Bulk Mercury Optimax Oil

domo online blog 2 3-10-14My uncle’s friend used to have a high powered speed boat. He loved to take it out on the bay and race around all of the little islands and all of that. It was a boat that he basically used just for running around and having a good time on the weekends and holidays. Eventually, he got bored of it and sold it because it was expensive to run.

When he sold his boat, he also included a lot of bulk Mercury Optimax oil that he had purchased for the boat. Since he was able to buy a lot of it for cheaper than buying just the amount that he needed, he also chose to get a bit extra for the next season or two when he went to buy it. There was no reason to keep it once he sold the boat.

Adventures in Mercury Engine Oil

domo online blog 3 2-24-14My cousin recently got a new boat. While my entire family told him that he should probably put more thought into purchasing a boat, he went ahead and bought the first one that he actually looked at. It is a used boat that he got from someone that one of his friends knows. The problem is that my cousin doesn’t know much about owning a boat.

He’s never actually had his own boat before. The most experience he’s had on boats is going out on his father’s boat and his grandfather’s boat. This hasn’t prepared him for all of the maintenance of a boat. His father had to show him how to fill the Mercury engine oil in his new boat already. He told him to do more research on his boat for the future.

Looking for Deals on Mercury Oil

domo online blog 2 2-17-14My cousin is a big bargain hunter. If he can save a little bit of money, he is glad to do it. He will wait for coupons to show up in his grocery store, before he buys certain items. When he buys a car, he has everything checked out thoroughly and manages to talk the price way down.  He wants to get the very best deal on anything that he spends his money on.

This is also true for his boat maintenance. He would never buy an inferior product, because it was cheaper. However, he would buy Mercury oil in bulk or on sale so that he could get the best deal that was possible. Whenever he sees it for cheap, he will buy it, even if he already has what he needs for quite a while. He won’t pass up the bargain.

New Speed Boat, New Mercury Optimax Oil

domo online blog 4 2-10-14My uncle just got a brand new speed boat. He bought it from the Seattle Boat Show a few weeks ago. It is a boat that has a whole lot more power than his last boat. Best of all, this boat actually seems to run great, rather than breaking down all the time like his last boat. He got it ready to take out and run for the very first time last weekend.

He had to get it Mercury optimax oil, because this is the type of oil that his boat motor has to use. He can’t use any of the old oil that he has left over from his old boat, because none of it is the right kind of oil for the boats motor.
