's Go Fishing eo Let's Go Fishing e By JERRY SHERIDAN HEY kept asking me about outboard motors, and outboard motors
are something which go stalled
in the middle of the lake so far as
I have ever been able to find out, so I went around to my friend who knows all. He admitted he had held some little traffic with the outboard
motor in its contrary stages, so we
chewed our: pencil and came home
with these notes on “The Outboard Motor, Its Care and Feeding.”
®» 8 = HE first rule about these contrivances is so simple it is often forgotten, my friend tells me. His first rule is to fasten the motor securely on the boat. Much trial and tribulation may be-.avoided if this is done. 2. Be sure to mix oil and gasoline well in proper proportions. Use only clear gasoline—no ethyl. 3. Always carry a few extra shear pins, one extra starting rope and two extra spark plugs. These elementary supplies are difficult to find, especially when you need them out about four miles from shore. 4, Adjust motor on boat so drive shaft is perpendicular to water surface. Most beginners in the art of subduing the outboard motor lose a greater part of the efficiency of the gadget by failing to do tHis. 5. Many motors have been ruined when they failed to cool properly while running at slow speed. Cylinders ‘are scored if the unit overheats. just as in an automobile. Check up on this frequently. 6. Check Jower unit for proper amount of outboard gear grease. Use only the kind designated by your instruction chart. - 7. If motor is flooded, turn needle valve to closed position and pull
‘rope several times. Then turn needle”
valve to starting position. Improper choking causes most beginner trouble. Every pull of the rope when the needle valve is in starting position drives gasoline into the chamber. This is a good way to find yourself stranded in the middle of your favorite lake with nothing but time on your hands after'a day's fishing. . 9. Carry a life saving belt or pillow in the boat for each person at ALL TIMES. Preferable is the kapoc-filled type recommended by the government. .
10. As a fisherman, this rule gets the hand. Never run your boat
closer than 200 feet to another fishing boat. Always respect your fellow fishermen. Just remember how angry you were one time when you had a good strike and lost it because some “show-off” drove his new boat right over your line. ” ” ” ’ The recommended size for small rowboat motors is 24 to 35 pounds. They generate 12 to 2% H. P. in the one-cylinder type and give plenty of service. Light twins weighing 30 to. 45 pounds generating from 2% to 4% H. P. are the limit for small boats.
If you' have a large rowboat or.
family runabout, the 42 to 32 H. P. motor is the thing. There are num-
.erous standard makes, all having
distinct advantages. You should do some wide-eyed shopping before you buy a motor. Know just what you want it to do and suit your needs to the limitations of the motor. If there are further questions on the outboard motor, just send them in and I will see that they are answered. These general rules will keep you out of trouble but if you have some special problem, right up.
