    Yeti

    For the active man, this is the best coffee mug money can buy....and it's not that expensive. I have 3 and not a single one leaks. I use them year round from hunting out of treestand to kayaking. I wouldn't take anything for them. Coffee stays piping hot all day long. I like that you can...

    Yamaha F25 1st oil change

    Should have changed the filter. The break in is for meeting parts to wear together. The F25 is a great motor...about bullet proof.

    Maybe bowfishing

    There are many bowfishing package bows available now ranging in price from $200-$600. Typically people go with either an AMS Retriever bottle reel or a traditional spinning reel setup. Both have advantages and disadvantages...so it's personal preference. I hate spinning and love the...

    Float pod flooded with water

    I wouldn't add more foam and hopefully the foam that is in there isn't already water logged. The risk to adding more foam is that it becomes water logged. As long as the foam isn't waterlogged you're good to go. The foam that's already inside may be there to add some structural support. Only...

    Tail walking tinny. Yikes.

    Smack your head on the gunnel and hopefully you have a loved one willing to change your adult diapers for the rest of your life.

    Lowe Pathfinder or G3 CCJ

    Boats are very similar. I have a G3 1656 CCJ 60/40 (It's a 2013). Great boat, needs a little more horse power but does ok. I think your deciding factor is going to be the layout of the boat. I think the fuel capacity in the G3 is less than the Lowe boats as well. I can tell you that the G3...

    How to attach

    I would add a plate using mechanical faster, rivets or weld and weld grab bar to the plate.

    Tracker Grizzly complete rebuild

    Wow! A lot of work went into that. One tip on the Hydro-turf is that if you are crafty you can use a router table to route the edges. I've only seen it in photos....but it can be done. Might not be worth the effort, but it does give a really clean look for an up-charge.

    Invasive species

    It is my suspicion that the blue cat is what is keeping the flathead population in check here, although we have a substantial population of flatheads. We have a very unique case study here on the Dan river. From the last dam down to Kerr Lake smallies are a rarity and never mature. From that...

    Multi tool type boat

    I have a Nucanoe Frontier 12 kayak and it can handle a 2.5 hp outboard. It's 41" wide and has a 650 lb weight capacity.

    thinking about buying a kayak

    I have a Nucanoe Frontier 12. I bought it 3 years ago and over that time it evolved into my primary fishing boat. I love it.

    Invasive species

    The blue catfish is our invasive species here Virginia. I hate them with a passion. Freshwater rats is what they are.

    I’m done with this cold weather

    Low of 20 and high of 50 in a day doesn't count as cold for me. When the flat water freezes over I call it cold. That's only happened once here when we had two days of teens with windchill in single digits. Two different watersheds run through my home county the Dan and the Roanoke. Hard to...

    I’m done with this cold weather

    2 days of cold not big deal. 180 days of rain is killing us.

    I’m done with this cold weather

    Cold isn't the problem here in southern VA, it's rain. It literally rained for 50% of the of the last 365 days. It has been unreal and depressing.

    Unknown 1449 Total makeover

    You need a drain plug if you're going to trailer it unless you plan on running your bilge pump traveling down the highway in a rainstorm....if the battery is dead or bilge pump has problems maybe your wife can ride in the boat down the highway with a bucket. :shock: If your boat fills with...

    River carnage.

    Bailing bucket would have saved the day.

    New to boating

    3 adults in a 1648 is perfectly fine. It will be crowded for fishing though. This is in the jet boat forum so assuming you mean 25HP jet drive (25 HP at the pump)......that is under-powered for the loads you're talking about. 3 grown men and a narrow 48" hull, you will have a hard time...

    They are encouraging boat Vandalizm

    The public school system is a failing monopoly.

    MinnKota vs Motorguide

    If I had a bowfishing boat I probably would do that. But, my boat is a jet-drive-do-everything-boat.
