Hunger Drive Supports the Fondy Food Pantry for Families In Need ▼

Fond du Lac, Wis. (September 14, 2021) – Mercury Marine employees in Fond du Lac have donated more than $5,600 in cash and PayPal contributions and over 2,500 pounds of nonperishable food items for Mercury’s annual “Fill the Boat to Cast Out Hunger” food drive, which supports the Fondy Food Pantry.

The event marked the ninth annual Fill the Boat food drive, following the cancellation of the 2020 event due to COVID-19. Although the ongoing coronavirus pandemic resulted in a curtailed list of related employee activities this year, employees rallied to provide donations toward the important work of the Fondy Food Pantry.

A Fellow HydroStream Fanatic Can Use Our Help ▼

When Scream And Fly began over 20 years ago, one of its main goals was to be a meeting place where fellow performance boaters can share tips and help others. Scream And Fly actually began as a HydroStream website, and I know from personal experience how attached we can become to these boats. Well, a really bad event has taken place and this might be a way to help. Mark (Flowmaxx on the forums) made this post to detail what happened, and its mission:

The Rondack Romp is a yearly event that has been taking place more than 15 years, and the location is incredible. I attended the Romp years ago, and the picturesque Great Sacandaga Lake is a location that is so beautiful that it is well worth a trip there alone, but of course that lake is a perfect place to really stretch the legs of any performance boat. And that they did!

A Truly Incredible Experience!▼

The Alva River Run was just amazing. The entire island was like one giant party barge with boats all around it, and not an extra space to be spared. It really is a great location and there were no mishaps of any kind. Hanging out on the island with a panoramic view of all the boats really was exactly what I needed after being in lockdown so long. The variety of boats there was astounding, from a classic Checkmate to one of Wildman Randy's Liberator creations and almost everything you can imagine was present. It really was a great day to shoot photos.

Whether storing your boat for months or years, a few extra steps can make a big difference▼

With the exception of the the diehards among us, the boating season is over for most people up north now so I thought this might be a good time to outline some tips for the proper storage of your boat during the off-season or just taking it out of service. I should note that this article is about the care of your hull in storage, not the engine and other systems.

There are many sources for preparing engines for storage, however I’ve found that often the hulls themselves are usually put into storage with not much more than a cover. That may be fine for short-term, in-between-use layups, however, additional steps should be taken if the boat is to be stored for more than a month.

It's That Time Again! ▼

It seems to have become a tradition to give away a Fire TV during the holidays, so here we go again! I use my Fire TV every day, and during the COVID solitary confinement, it has helped a great deal. So I will be giving away the new 2020 version of the Fire TV Stick with Alexa remote. I don't think anybody is sure how long COVID will continue to be a big concern, so maybe this device will make any future lockdowns a bit easier.

I hope you are all well and staying safe. If anybody has extra masks or materials for people that are in a situation of great need, please consider reaching out to them. My thoughts are with all of you, and please be careful out there.
