Re: Vinegar Flush of Yamaha 200

Thanks for your input, appreciated. I did some more research and found two brands of marine descaling agents apparently safe for use in outboard cooling systems. These are Rydlyme and Hammerhead, both available on Amazon. I also found that vinegar is an acceptable alternate in lieu of those brands, ...

Best Practices for Storage

My [1994–always use four digits for year] Outrage 21 is going to be stored on a boat hoist.

I want to use the lift points as permanent supports for eight months at a time.

Q1: is any information available on best practices for storage aside from a bunk system?

Re: 1994 21 Outrage Plans in PDF Format

Thanks Jim, That explains why there appears to be no resources for that. I have some original brochure and manual stuff with the boat back in Maine, I will see if I can find a way to use those. For some reason I thought I remembered layout view in promotional materials for choosing options like capt...

Re: 1994 21 Outrage Plans in PDF Format

I'm drawing the lift system in CAD and want to see the boat plan in a pdf that I can import. The boat and boathouse are on the other side of the country, so I am trying to get a head start on the drafting work. In person is fine for lift points, but I also have another sailboat that will occupy the ...

1994 21 Outrage Plans in PDF Format

Q1: from what URL can I download a deck plan for a [1994] OUTRAGE 21 in the portable document format?

I want to have the deck plan for a 1994 OUTRAGE 21 so that I can create a layout for a steel hoist in my boat house.

Vinegar Flush of Yamaha 200

Q1: will using a vinegar flush of the cooling system on my Yamaha Saltwater series 200 on my [1994] Outrage to clear any scale be likely to cause smaller ports in the head to clog and block the flow of cooling water ? Q2: how small are the cooling ports on a [1994] Yamaha 200-HP Saltwater Series eng...

Re: 1994 Outrage 21 single engine shaft length

Thanks Jim. I think you answered my question.

Per the attached photo I'm going with [the assumption of] a notched transom. A two-engine setup on that boat would be 20-inch shaft engine.

Re: Interpreting Alarm Sounder Meaning

Sorry for the slow replies, I am at my lake place in northern Maine, no internet here. The engine is I believe a 1994 saltwater series Yamaha 200. It has two separate stock gauges, both not functional except for the tach aspect. Yes, the engine has a large tank for oil in the center console, and as ...

Re: Interpreting Alarm Sounder Meaning

I ran the motor for about 30 minutes at 4,000-RPM, then took off the cowling, checked the head temperature, and found [there was no reason for concern about the cylinder head temperature]. I checked the oil reservoir on the engine; it was full. [Previously when the alarm had done off] the reservoir ...

Interpreting Alarm Sounder Meaning

I am in the second season with my 1994 21' Outrage, all is well except today I heard a high pitched alarm or warning tone inside the console after running the boat at higher revs albeit briefly for the first time this season. My gut tells me this might be related to the oil pump for the two stroke Y...

Re: Outrage 21 Yamaha 200

These comments are greatly appreciated. When running at 3500 the boat is definitely on plane, and not laboring, that's in the 2200-2400 range on this boat. The 3500 is to address pounding in the short steep freshwater chop on the large lake where I keep the boat. I'm looking forward to opening the t...

Outrage 21 Yamaha 200

Just bought [a 1994 OUTRAGE 21] boat with a 1994 Yamaha 200-HP Saltwater series—560 hours on both. I know the upper end of the engine speed range is about 5900-RPM. I do not want to run the engine too hard at its age. I've been running the Yamaha 200-HP engine between 3500 and 4500-RPM. Give me inpu...

1994 Outrage 21 Steering Leak

I bought a well-preserved 1994 Outrage 21 with what I believe to be a Teleflex steering system, the kind with the adjustable tilt helm. The hydraulic system at the helm has started to leak and I am researching replacement gaskets or O-rings for that part of the system. There are no identifying seria...
