Tips on Repairing and Performance     Repairing boats is part of the owning it (if it's more than 5 years old). If you can't do it, hire someone. However, you should learn to do as much as you can if you want to make it affordable.   Try to fix it -- if you run into problems, email me, and I will do my best to help you out! Dennis Allen -Owner Performance · Engines · Outdrives · Props.  Ok now here are some things you can do to help yourself save money! Have your friends kick in for all the expenses: gas, bait, food, drinks etc. (Yeah Right! What kind of friends do you think I have!?) Distribute the weight evenly, don’t pile all the gear in the back. Check the tide chart; running with the tide can save you up to 20% on fuel! running against the tide can cost you up to 20% more fuel. Have the prop that get you the rated rpm's installed. If you don’t have trim tabs (if you can afford them) get some installed. This will save you 10%-20% in fuel costs. Keep the bottom clean. Make a game plan so you're not traveling places that you don't need to be going. Slow down and smell the ocean, the faster you travel the faster you burn the fuel. Trolling speed gets you the best fuel economy, and you catch more fish. Leave plenty of time so your not rushing the trip and rushing to get home.
