Mercury 2.5 Outboard

★★★☆☆

written by on 31/10/2022

I have the 2020 model and although the manual recommends regular 87 fuel with up to 10 % ethanol, I have had it back to the dealer, (Orleans Boat World), every season for failure to start. The 1st time they charged me $160 and found nothing! The second time they charged me $375 to replace the carb float valve. I changed to premium ethanol free fuel and it got much better. Mercury refuses warranty on carb issues because they can't prove recommended fuel was used. Extremely disappointed. After… Read Full Review

Teksport Rock Hopper Kayak

★★★★☆

written by Combs37 on 04/08/2022

Yamaha 2.5 HP Four Stroke

★★★★☆

While the 2.5 HP works just well enough up to 5 knots maximum. The 2.5 HP is very fuel efficient at 4.5 knots. The 2.5 HP has an extremely fine pilot jet that clogs easily. A partial clog will make a smooth idle at low RPMs difficult to achieve. All summer the motor started first pull - but required a higher than… Read Full Review

Water Babies Baby Swimming Classes

★☆☆☆☆

written by Aldenq421 on 24/06/2022

My daughter was five months old and I enrolled us at our local YMCA. As soon as we got into the water, one of the instructors took my baby girl and abruptly dunked her underwater and spun her around. When she was face up - she was gasping and had a look on her face I will never forget! She was shaking, too! I was told to use "one finger" under her head to support her to float. I felt so bad, since she was born I did everything to avoid injury, pain, cold, hot whatever. It was all shattered that… Read Full Review
