The sessions I have seen have been a disaster- but that's just what you sometimes see at a ramp. The problem I see/ have seen with them, it's usually a light aluminum boat that will eagerly float off a submerged trailer vs the whole fighting the lead line nonsense after a rig floats off the tilt...

Leave a Lowrance trns mt loose enough to kick up and it kick's up every time you get up on plane- that's fine though- Yep- mounting the most crritical portion of the sounding system by a 1/4" piece of plastic- thumbs up there, nahh- that's not piss poor engineering. Sounds like the OP is fine...

Those are just... Why.. Why, why, why? I have seen the same ones- one guy had an R1 engine in a go cart, yes, a go cart. Hard to look away though. Russian road rage is another that is hard to stop watching.

Not. Bad idea at all! Worse case it will sure make the first three serious cranks much, much easier.

I had LED's on my Lowe- well, well worth it, I need to switch these on my Grizzly over now too.

Mesquite, +1, best dang cooking wood goin', hands down..

I agree on the weight- its not like you are going from a 10 up to. 50 horse, aand the location on the hull where you probably will be adding weight is where the hull wants to carry its load anyway. We have a Yammahamma 150 Pro-V that we have had since 1998. We have changed exactly zero, nada-...

Red you are making a fool of yourself- I am done responding to your childish nonsense. Near I can figure you are a "Big" O supporter and my signature got your "we are the 99%" shirt all balled up on you. I am done with you and your nonsense. Read the original post- a hull mount plastic...

Tilt trailers are for guys that haven't heard of marine rated hub grease :) . I have seen guys at the ramp tying up one lane of the ramp for 45 minutes loading a boat with the tilting mechanism where your avg Joe would load lauch in the lane in maybe three minutes tops with one guy. I asked a...

Try putting some pre-mixed fuel in a spray bottle, spray a little in the carb with the throttle held on fast. Twist back to "start", close the choke if there is one and give her a few yanks. If it sputters you have spark.. If it sputters real good you have good spark. They really are the golden...

John the Zoom plastics you have to watch- most claim to be salt impregnated and are not at all, no salt equals less weight, less neutral bouyancy- they want to float- you don't want that. And last no salt and they won't hold the lure properly. Anyway- back to soaking them, soaking them before...

I would direct you to OnlineOutboards.com, I would opt for either the 9.8 or the 20 horse based on your specs. Prop the 9.8 properly and you will be fine. I skip the 15 because it is a de-tuned 20- always buy the motor that has the highest hp rating in it's cc' family. The 20 that boat should...

Yeah but you guys have all those smallies!!!

I believe the Skeeter has the two depth finders ran with the cranking battery- but that's it, they don't have a real large draw though. I may have been the lucky one on the interference thing- in most of the Jons I have ran I have used just one battery for everything (rope starts) and I couldn't...

Right on! Nothing better than power plants.
