I paid all license fees until I am able to obtain lifetime free fishing, I still send money into DWR to help them with resources for stocking and such; we all have to keep feeding fish one way or the other (LOL) I just think it is right to keep our fisheries running and funded so that my...

Happy wife, happy life lol - have her paddle the boat some so she can appreciate those batteries or any batteries for that matter!

Guess, CA doesn't give a hoot about your age, (bet if you were illegal alien they would give you a license for free); here in VA my license both fresh and salt water are free because of my age, I need Trout License if I fly fish for Trout in Rivers but I don't mind giving DWR funds because they...

Roll the dice, time will tell the tale if you made the right decision or not! I have seen it before and no matter how much you think about it a decision has to be made, had customers lose their lower unit to damage, have had them not have any issues, had a few need to replace seals and bearings...

She got his butt good with that one!

I feel your pain, when I sold my 16 foot Lowe extra wide boat I thought much like many have move to to the next boat. But, in reality I never got over that boat, selling it to fund a newer boat that didn't last 5 years before I sold it. My old Lowe boat was where I got to take my Dad fishing and...

Water test will prove it all, good luck and pretty ingenious on your part.

Rich and I have been friends for a very long time, worked-hunted and fished together probably 35 years or more and yes I was heart-broken when it happened to Rich, I did what I could to help but going through a heart attack left me well helpless to lend a hand which I have done a bunch of times...

He didn't have any insurance on his boat so it was out of his pocket; I said OMG when he told me, I originally was only told about the prop / hub and not the lower unit casing damage when he called me to ask about it, I asked him to check the prop shaft to be sure and he said it looked okay, he...

Fishing buddy hit similar thing earlier this year and had to go the entire lower unit because of more internal damage that couldn't been seen until they pulled it apart; if you bent the prop shaft you hit something hard. A rebuilt lower unit cost him with labor 2,000.00, his casing was damaged...

Which is why I suggested the (Pods) for the rear; adding stability and solving the squatting issues seemed to be important to owner, I don't think he cares about top end speed and adding the PODS is cheaper than the center console option, and I am all for moving fuel - battery - etc, whatever to...

Welding on rear pods will resolve that issue of squatting and waterline so close to top; been there done that and rear pods solve it for me and I weight 325 myself. Though I sold my boat to get a bigger one for my family to join in my fishing trips but I know it works!

Everyone has given great advise, is the pee water hot or cool? Temp sensor may be going bad since sitting for a while but without knowing the water temperature it is unsure. If the water is hot then I would check the engine's thermostat as it may be partially blocked or not fully opening up when...

RESTORE, And the Jeopardy answer is "What is the best way to have a boat, enjoy your boat and not spend a fortune to own a boat?

I feel your pain, now let me add another insult from the insurance companies, they can limit the amount (appointments) with any provider, fighting with my insurance provider who said I had to wait to have another appointment with the eye surgeon who removed my cataracts, I need to get the lens...

Boat coverage and protection has always been and always will be a tough issue for us boaters; luckily I now have a garage large enough that I can store my boat inside (heated garage) so my baby is warm and protected from mother nature, lol. Many years ago I as well as many others fought with...

I agree, Airshot - snow is a bad thing and most hated by myself for sure!

Nice looking paint job, looks like it laid down extremely well.

Glad to hear you are getting somewhere with this stuff; waiting to check my roof leak when it rains again.

yes, keep us in the loop and how well it works for you on the boat, very interested!
