    Best floor for tinnie

    Keep your boat out of the weather when not in use, if the plywood floor does get wet, put a fan on it while in storage to dry it as quickly as possible ! The avg boat owner does not keep a boat longer than 10 yrs if they are actively using it. Most long term boat owners beynd 10 years have...

    Plant Based Food

    Plant Based Food

    My neighbor is a nurse and speaks often about processed food. They claim plant based foods are supposed to be healthier for us, but....isn't that a highly processed food ? Making leaves and grass taste like a steak is gonna take a lot of processing !!

    First time boat owner with a few questions

    Just a couple observations here...the operator probably turned the seat sideways to steer, but that seat could be moved or replaced to suit your needs. Something I do is.... to tilt the motor so the cav plate is parallel to the bottom, use a straight edge ! Once the cab plate is parallel....is...

    Plant Based Food

    I am one that needs to watch his diet, heart attack and triple bypass from my arthritus, not from poor diet. There are plenty of ways to eat meat if prepared properly. Not a fan of plant based artificial stuff. I do eat very little red meat, but plenty of chicken and pork and often meals with...

    finding transom saver for trailer / motor

    A lot depends on transom quality and engine weight. If the motor can't flop up and down, you should be good to go !

    Looking to upgrade

    Yep....as already stated, what your gonna do with it means everything ! I downgraded after retiring as I fish mostly by myself with an occasional passenger. I found a 16' SC made by Sylvan. Love the layout of this boat, well balanced, plenty of room to move around, as I don't use live wells...

    How many of you enjoy a "Beater Boat?"

    I have owned a good number of boats in my 60 plus years of boating. Can't say I have had beaters, but the only new ones were a 10' Jon boat and a 12' Sea Nymph in my teenage days. Once I moved into something more than a rowboat, I paid more attention to how my boats looked. None were show...

    Pressure treated wood used for floor deck!!!

    The PT wood made in the past 20 years no longer has the harsh chemicals that it had before then. It also doesn't last anywhere near as long outside. So..if that wood is less than 22 years, you might be ok. Built a deck 24 yrs back with "new improved" PT lumber. That lumber has been bad for...

    How to fill small hole in back of transom?

    Depending on mfgr and quality of boat you have, there may not be any wood in the transom. My '92 Sylvan has an all aluminum transom. Smaller boats that use clampon motors often still have wood to give a better clamping surface.
