    45 hp merc classic 50

    I think it'd be worth the fix if I knew the problem and could just tell the mechanic to replace that part. Rather than him using up his time figuring it out and charging me out the butt

    45 hp merc classic 50

    Hey guys, i'm about to throw in the towel i think. I have a 45 horse mercury from the 80's. I've done nothing but work to this thing. I normally fish 5 days a week, but I have only been out 5 times in the past 4 months now because of this motor. I have no spark on cylinder 2. This is a 4...

    trolling motor dilema

    I have no room for 2 batteries on my 16 foot duracraft bass boat. Unless I run extension wires which will cut my amps. Will a 55 be sufficient with this boat?

    Problem?

    Yea, the motor runs fine. Starts on first pull. How would I go about checking the RPMs and what should they be at? Also aluminum is what my supports are made out of. I looked up the weight on aluminum vs plywood, and plywood weighed less as a result of surface area mass.

    Problem?

    Hey guys, I have a 15 HP evinrude. I know nothing about OB's so I figured I'd ask the pros.

    14' Boat Conversion Advise

    I have a 14 foot Starcraft that looks to be a similar build. I have a deck that is 2 inches below the gunnels and is 6 foot long. I used 1/2 inch exterior ply for mine. It's like I am standing on a rock in a busy river.

    Dave, are you able to pitch and flip with that lower deck? Looking at a used hull with decks about that height and wanted to know if they needed to be modded.

    That's what I thought. How was yours connected? Right through the side of the hull?

    Moving console

    Hey guys, my buddy has a 15 foot sea nymph with a side console. He wants to move the console back closer to the motor to give more room in the front. Is this possible? What will have to be done to make it work? thanks a lot!

    Cheap Trailer idea

    To extend the tongue do you need to weld it? or would bolts work as well?

    Cheap Trailer idea

    Yeah, I will have a bow mount, battery, all the plumbing for my livewell, and tackle will all be in the front of the boat. the only thing in the back will be the outboard.

    Cheap Trailer idea

    The problem is, I would want it to haul a BIGGER boat! I would hate to spend 3 times as much to get something of equal value.
