    Well, I did it…. Minn Kona help needed

    I can say from experience 🙁 that if you don’t have a circuit breaker on your power source at some point, you certainly can fry the wires in a minnkota terrova. Smelled it first, then the smoke. Was an easy fix.

    Can anyone tell me about this boat?

    That knee brace is 100% the same as a 1972 sears jon boat I had. Not much else matches though. Different model??? Only picture I have.

    Do I really "need" a casting deck?

    Honestly I can skip baits way better sitting in the back of my jon boat than I can off the casting deck of my crestliner. I can slip baits in almost anywhere. But for pitching, yes casting deck is an advantage.

    Interesting week

    Nice going on the Big D. Had an invite to fish the Delaware today on my buddies boat South of lampertville for stripers. Prior commitment so I had to turn him down. Heads up.Try to keep those fish off the carpet. It wipes away their slime, not good for them.

    Boat ramp traffic way down and fewer boats on the water?

    Same here. Perfect weather weekend here, and the knuckleheads wil be out. Last week after an early morning of fishing. I dealt with an entitled kayaker at the ramp when I came back to leave. He had his little plastic yak tied to the dock. Pickup parked sideways blocking the whole ramp and he...

    cabin height & stability

    12 foot is a small boat to build a cabin on. I wouldn’t encourage it. JMHO.

    Placement of Marine Charger/Maintainer?

    I wouldn’t worry about it. The charger in my crestliner is almost touching the tank.

    Help identifying this hull

    Agree with stand up. Flat bottom not great in rough water.

    Help with trailer and winch setup

    If you look at the rub marks above the eye it seems at one time it was set up to be above the eye.

    Fiberglass patch issue

    Pretty obvious he’s made up his mind to just glass over it. Interested to see how it proceeds as well.

    Fiberglass patch issue

    That keel needs to be mechanically fastened with rivets. It appears the flange has some serious corrosion. Get all glass off and expose what’s really there then come back and post a picture of what you have.

    Fiberglass patch issue

    Ouch that’s ugly, and it’s gonna get uglier. You need to remove all the goop and see how far forward that keel is rotted away and take it from there. There is not quick patching that.
