Steve, affectionately known as ´The Boat Whisperer´ since the release of his Upwind and Downwind Boat Whisperer DVD sets, has been eager to produce a Tactics DVD to add to the series. The introduction of GPS loggers, TackTracker analysis software, and HD waterproof cameras has made this his most exciting project yet.
Synopsis of the ‘The Boat Whisperer TACTICS‘ double disc DVD Series.
The location for most of the scenes on this double DVD, is set in the Island of Cabarete, the water-sports capital of the Dominican Republic’s golden coast in the Caribbean.
Most of the action is set in the blue, warm waters and skies of the Caribbean, using Lasers and Laser Radials, but reality soon hits us with some interesting footage of the Rooster 8.1 Nationals held in an overcast UK on the Thames in 2010. At this location, Steve discusses how to get on the correct side of those localized wind pressure/gusts (called pressure sailing).
Steve for most of the first session discusses the situations and applied tactics, commentating on the spectacular footage with HD cameras shot from the conventional support boat, but also from the top of Laser masts, sterns and bow shots (used on the Rooster 8.1)
The content is aimed at the typical dingy race club sailor or occasional open meeting traveller who wishes to improve and understand how those regular race winners are consistently fast on the dinghy race track.
The commenting on each situation is clear and easily understood, and to complement the HD videos clips, the use of GPS receivers and tracking software (Tacktracker) has been used. Most of the first DVD concentrates on the start/upwind/windward mark roundings and how to either get in the right race track position (called ‘positioning for boatspeed’ ) or how to extract yourself from those ‘not so good ‘situations either on the start line or the windward mark approaches.
The second session starts with start line tactics, dealing with how to ‘poach’ leeward gaps / defending them, port end biased start lines and port tack starts and those all important ‘bail out situations’ at the start.

Works Great, at first didn't believe all the reviews, I've bought 5 chainsaws from one season to the next. After each winter couldn't get them to start. Followed the instructions to flush and let sit for a few days. Every one started and ran great. Hands down, this is a remarkable product for cleaning out blocked fuel systems from sitting all winter would recommend it for all 2 cycle engines and use the stable blend for winter as well as anytime use to prevent fuel spoilage.

Efird, a great product
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Used this in a Troy Built Garden Tiller, the tiller would stall and hard to crank until we use the Sta Bil Fast Fix, tiller now runs great and does not stall.

Worked great, saved me hundreds.
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've had issues with the carburetor on my 2003 Honda ATV for years. It has needed cleaned regularly to stay running, and one repair shop wanted over $400 to replace the carburetor. One treatment with STA-BIL and it's running smooth again. Very impressive.

Great for 2 cycle, meh for 4 cycle.
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff is flat out amazing for 2 cycle small engines, works like advertised. 4 cycle isn't as good, if your engine hasn't ran in years, you'll still have to clean the carb, but it does help some. The 2 cycle oil for one is a lubricant and inhibits varnish buildup (especially a synthetic premium brand), and usually premium oil has a fuel stabilizer in it. Plus if you don't have a float bowl, there's not enough fuel for phase separation. I also use it in my mix for my ultrasonic cleaner when cleaning carbs. Overall a very good product, but understand it's limitations in this modern age of ethanal fuel.

It works well.
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great product that delivers on what it says it does. This won’t fix a mechanical problem or damaged component, but it will fix a stuck float, varnished tank, gummed up jet, or partially blocked emulsion tube.
