    New from tampa!

    Hunter, Whenever you want to do some saltwater fishing give me some notice and we'll set something up. Im not set up for shark fishing and not sure I want to be. I love throwing lures at specks and Reds, but I am perfectly fine putting a shrimp on a bobber and waiting. I will trade you sometime...

    Cali27's 1436 Tracker Mod

    Cali, Boat looks fantastic, I like what you did with the front the storage is a bonus. As for the motor, did it smoke the whole time you had it running? It should have burned off any residual oil that might have been left in the chamber. Also what ratio of oil are you running? I do believe it...

    The seller should be able to hook it up to his hose or run it in a bucket like he would/should do when flushing the motor. Keep in mind that I would still do common maintinence on the motor, ignition, water pump, Carb rebuild, fuel pump rebuild, lower unit oil, etc. It nice to have that piece...
