I looked at a Tracker Targa in the general dollar of fishing stores and was disgusted at the quality. Yes, it was a $35k boat that would be $50k in any other brand, but even for $35k you shouldn't be able to see the framing members telegraphing through the hull while it's sitting on the floor...

I'd be surprised if your 15hp 2 stroke wasn't already about 80 lbs but I may be wrong!

Wait until you have to take one apart... I'm not kidding when I say they are built like kids toys. My 36v Ulterra has been a labor of love and I've had to wrench on it more than a few times. The way it's put together reminds me of Lego toys. Course have you priced Legos lately?

Look up your local Fastenal, if they can't get them then they aren't made.

I think in your situation I would probably make back wrapped panels out of 1/2" plywood and surface mount them. Not an ideal solution, certainly adds unwanted weight, but would look decent.

Boy I sure missed the boat (pun intended) on Defender Marine. Looked like they changed their whole website and business model. The advantage to them over any other seller of vinyl is they sell by the YARD. $24.99 a yard as opposed to $14.99 a foot on Amazon or Walmart. Makes a big difference on...

I've been real happy with my Caliber bunk wraps.

My boat is said to burn 15gal/hr at full throttle, but it goes over 40mph, so 2 hr's is 80 miles of travel!! That is a long way to go, especially if you are fishing. And all you need to do is back it off to half throttle after she's on plane, you go slower but get much better economy and you are...

Northland doesn't have it, I tried. I have an original Minn Kota Powerdrive motor that works fine but the pedal is torched and is in the pile to go to the dump. You can't even get the circuit board and wire anymore to rebuild a pedal.

I'm a Traxstech man mostly because that is how I mounted my downriggers, but I like rocket launchers and have their lift and turn rod holders. They work as good for trolling freshwater as they do for ground fishing the saltwater.

I'm not a Yeti fan specifically or anything, but the Yeti tumblers are downright amazing for keeping drinks cool. And for cans, the Rambler cozy is terrific.

Lumber prices are definitely on the way down, but steel prices are through the roof and climbing. I'm bidding steel products at 130 percent higher than I was in January. Monday is a new month at work and I will probably have a pile of emails from my suppliers telling me of increases for Sept...

I tried a Tile at one point and was very disappointed with it's performance. It's dodgy at best.

Add me to the club- I use a bungee on the steering wheel attached to the throttle lever which goes in gear to prevent the wind spinning it endlessly while towing.

I've had my entire Ulterra apart (don't ask). The shaft on all these motors is pinned with a split pin and is chemically bonded to the powerhead at the base to keep it waterproof. The top part is easy, that simply through-bolts. The wire is easy to shorten and extend at the top. I am sure you...

Yeah, almost all of them are going to require an app to be used. I have a fairly cheap model from Amazon...

This one came from off the Isle of Shoals, just off Smuttynose.

If you replace the zip ties with some nice paracord it will look like it was made by a professional! Nice work.

While trying to hook up the first striper of the year, my buddy hooked this fish called a cunner. Never seen or heard of these but apparently they are great eating and this one is a decent one. Check out the mouth on this thing!

Oh wow, that's a good one there! Nice work.
