Looks good, keep up the good work. In no time you'll be done. I plan on starting my boat mods in the end of april and be finished by May 20th. Will be great to get back on the open water. We still have a couple of weeks left of ice fishing up here lol

I would take the battery in to a store that will test it for free. Their test should show you if the battery is bad or if it's the charger. If it's the first time using the charger and it's bad, you can probably return it. It should have some type of warranty

WOW, be cafeful with that puddle around the battery. It's most likely sulfuric acid if it came from inside of the battery, it will eat through everything! I would suggest neutralizing the acid with a lot of baking soda before trying to remove the battery and clean up the spill. The voltage...

I would go with just one breaker or fuse, using 1 breaker instead of 2 is one less thing to break, making it less of a hassle while out on the water. I'm not 100% sure but I don't think you should need a switch for the trolling motor because the trolling motor has a switch built in via the speed...

Polyurethane foam (closed cell foam) has a buoyancy of approximately 60 lbs per cubic foot. So divide the weight of your boat, motor and everything inside by 60 and that will give you a good approximation of how much foam you will need in order to keep your boat from sinking if you get swamped.

I think the 5 mph. rating also has to do with the force beng applied to the pole. The faster you accelerate, the more force is applied to the pole and this force could possibly bend the pole while at speed. Also, the greater the mass of the person on the seat will also increase the bending...

I'm with you BaitCaster. Definitely love a couple cases of beer with some buddies on the dock, toss in a pickerel rig and your set. Catch ratio definitely gets worse and worse with the more beers you drink but it's still a good time catching a tonne of perch and walleye. No beer in the boat...

I saw that Garmin came out with a new line up for fishfinders this year. I was in the market for a new one and they seem to be reasonably priced for the features that they offer. Has anyone bought one of these units and tried it out yet? https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=149

woke up today at it was -21 Celsius and -33 with the wind chill. That's around -6 F and -22.4 F with the windchill

You could also use trolling motor plugs that are made for your exact purpose of easily attaching a trolling motor to the electrical power. The link shows a bunch of different options for the different plugs...

Thanks for the input guys. For the front deck the depth below it shouldn't be an issue, I can just drill a hole in the seat. In the middle of the floor there isn't too much clearance. I would check but the boat is under at least a foot of snow lol. I have seen surface mounts for some pedestals...

I bought a 14 ft Naden with a 15 HP Yamaha 4 stroke in the fall that the previous owner had removed the second bench seat, half of the back bench and decked the front two benches. There is also a low floor from the back of the boat to the front deck. I also bought 2 seats for cheap on sale in...

All we have in Manitoba up in Canada is 10% ethanol blended fuel, pretty sure its a requirement.... It works perfectly fine. I love it when I go to the states and the 10% ethanol fuel is cheaper, even though it's the same stuff we have up here

you should be able to. Ask or look for engine storage spray. It can be used with both 2 strokes and 4 strokes. Just take off the cover on the motor and get access to the carbs and then spray it directly into the carb while the motor is running until it stalls out the motor. It will make the...

Hey Guys, I'm new here. I'm from Winnipeg way up in Canada. I just picked up a 14' Naden aluminum boat with an '04 15HP 4-stroke yamaha. I will be doing some mods to the boat after I fish from it for a bit. I doubt I'll get out in my boat til the spring because university getting pretty busy...

thanks deezee, my tabs are torn on the front seat as well, I will remove it eventually. I will have to fish from my boat first to see what I would like to do to my boat before I start tearing it apart. I love what you did with your boat, it looks unreal! hopefully mine ends up looking half...

Hey guys I'm new to Tinboats and I just bought pretty much the same Naden boat and Yamaha except the boat is older but the yamaha is an '04. I plan on making some modifications to it once I get some money deezee, did you just attach the casting deck frame to the front seat since there are no...
