Re: fuel filters
I'm running Racor #S3232UL filters on 600 Innovations. They have an aluminum separator bowl with a drain plug that screws onto the bottom of them, so you just change the element itself. Just changed them after 4 1/2 seasons and 4000 gallons of fuel - no problems.

Mr Bravo, Grand HAven is easy, they are right on the water so you can walk to any spot, try and get a slip early, they go fast. The Muni is close, The Warf is also close to DT. Holland is another story, there are no marinas near DT. You can stay at a few but would need a car to get to the good rest. in DT. There are plenty of transient slips here. Give me a call when you get here, I am up for dinner and could get you where you need to go. I am on the North side of the lake, very close to Anchorage marina. 616-786-2205, ask for Jim. This is a 1/4 mile from my house. There is a rest. there also and one a close walk. Sunday is weird here, little open due to the Dutch community. Call me at 616-886-0077 and we can hook up, I plan on being on the water that day, I may race my truck on sat. It is Diesel Day at Martin Drag Strip, I am looking for 11 at 119
