[Geno]

Hi Everyone, I'm a recently retired High School Technical Teacher in southwest Illinois. I've been a lifetime boater and presently am on my third Mariah. I've had a 3.0 Diablo and a 4.3 Talari and now own a 1993 Diablo outboard, one of about 90 outboards total produced by Mariah from '92 to '94. I use a 140 Suzuki four stroke for power. I also have an 1984 Starcraft aluminum runabout with a Johnson 60 for power. My wife and I have visited the Mariah plant several times back in the early-mid 90's since it is only about 125 miles from where we live. Geno

Welcome to the board Geno! I'm jealous you got to visit the factory! I'll bet that was amazing. You wouldn't happen to have any pictures or anything of that would you?

Be sure and post some pics of your boat in the Gallery section. Instructions are located in the "Feature of the Month" category.

Again, welcome, and I'm sure you'll find this place useful for all your Mariah needs. Plus we're all really friendly too!

Hey Geno...what part of Illinois? Do you boat at lake Carlyle? We may tap you for knowledge if you've been to the factory and owned 3 Mariahs!
