    Trailer fenders questions

    I recently have been fixing up a Jon boat I bought used. I noticed today the fenders on the trailer have no backing plate. So there is an opening between the tires and the boat. Do you see that as an issue? I might could fashion something, but I'm not sure if it's needed? Also, there is not a...

    Placement of Marine Charger/Maintainer?

    I have a 15 foot Alweld that has the basic two seat configuration. Behind the rear seat is the battery on one side and the fuel tank on the other. I am debating about where to place the onboard battery charger on this boat. My first instinct is to attach it to the back of the rear seat, or to...

    Trailer wheels worth upsizing?

    I have an Alweld 1542 boat on a painted steel boat trailer. It has a Minn Kota foot control motor and a 15HP Mercury outboard.

    Filling old drill holes?

    I have an older 1960s V-hull aluminum boat. I bought it used to use on a pond. There are lots of drill holes from previously mounting things. I will be repainting soon. Is there anything I can fill these with that looks good vs just silicone?

    Adding Railblaza tracks on an aluminum Jon with round edges?

    I have some Railblaza tracks that I had on my plastic boat that I would like to install on my new Alweld. I have lots of accessories already for it. I was thinking of adding aluminum angle along the edge and then mounting the tracks to that, but I'm not sure how that would work. Any ideas?

    New member from east Texas

    Hello everyone! About two years ago I decided to buy a small Jon boat and ended up with a Sundolphin American 12 plastic boat. I have been very, very unhappy with that boat. It's extremely tippy and has no floor drainage. Today I picked up a used Alweld 1542 and I'm excited to get this boat out...
