fake a lake or a flush kit???
i have to preface this question by saying, I'm new at this whole boating thing but...
i just got back from mexico and i used the fake a lake to flush out the boat and it's not very convenient. so my question is, what is everybody using to flush out the boat? thanks in advance for the help.cheers,

I don't use anything. Boat only in fresh wah-wah, occasionally clean the strainers and drain the block.
.
It would be wise to not boat in salt water, esp. w/o a fresh water cooling system.

I use the fake-a-lake about every 3 or 4 outings. My home tap water is no better than the lake water so not really sure what I am helping.

Florida swamp water
Joe,
I feel your pain. Everytime we travel to Florida our family refers to what comes out of the tap as 'Florida Swamp Water'. It's like drinking the water that condenses off a very old window air conditioner...
Hope you are still on the water.

blue, i cannot stand fake a lake. found it to hard to get a good seal.
the flush pro works much better.
now i will apologize for ed and sd2, for their random comments.
ps, ed
i really need to get down to the jamboree and see this.
