What is a pram? Maybe a dumb question but I've never herd of it.

Cool build. Doing a great job.

Agree with lck! Been doing body work for almost 10 years and I've painted everything from restorations to lawn furniture and I've done a tinny of my own. Scuff and feather out chips with 320 seal it and paint it. My ole 1232 has been painted for about 4 years and I beached it and banged it off...

I got one of those. The interesting thing is they're dropping our 10,000 acre lake 6in. a day for winter pool and it's about 10ft down from summer pool so I'm waiting to see if I can find it. I know it's probably no good now and it was a cheap rod and reel but I liked it and won alot tournaments...

Dude obviously the extra weight is lugging down the boat. Trackers are heavy aluminum boats anyway but yes if you drop a pitch or two in props when hauling extra people it will take care or your problem. A four prop in the same pitch will only help your hole shot but will not help your plane...

Aircraft stripper will cut alot of time of sanding out. The heavier and thicker you put it on the better. Then I'd sand it with 320 on a D/A to smooth it out. I've done body work for 8 years and painted a jon boat like a hotrod before. May need to lay some primer down before you spray it camo...

Usually if I hook another pole while I'm casting I end up with the biggest birds nest you've ever seen. Never lost a rod though that way (knock on wood). My partner and I fish about shoulder to shoulder on his Z8 and this has happened several times. He will goto cast and hook my pole just about...

Ok now let's stop knocking riveted boats. As anyone with any since knows that anytime you heat metal it does make it harder but it also makes it brittle. If you do end up needing a repair it will be alot harder to straighten and it will tear vs denting or bending on a riveted boat. One is just...

Well I did notice while I had the carbs apart that the float did t sit flush with the bowl like you described but I got it running and it's doing better now then it ever has. After seeing the pin size water drops in the carb I took carb and choke cleaner and cleaned the fire out of it and blew...

Yeah. I turn it off. I messed with it this afternoon and I pulled the carbs off and pulled the bowls and the little lids off and it looked like it has pin size water drops and it's starting to make sense. The mechanic said that it might have a little water in the carbs and it wouldn't burn out...

Well I've beat a dead dog to death again and I'm stumped so I hope some of you experts out there can help me out. My 2000 Johnson 50 started giving me a few problems and I know it's nothing major but I can't figure it out. It got really hard to start and now will only start if I manually prime...

My boat is a 1650 with a 50hp Johnson and I get right at 33mph but with a little wind and chop and alot of trim it'll run 34. Lol plenty of fast for me on my 10000sq acre lake. 6 gallons of fuel don't last long either so I put in close to where ima fish.

I used to joke about buying those floaty things at bass pro because I always kicked rods off in the water but they was always easily retrieved before they sank or they was in such shallow water it was no big deal. Just add a little more oil and they was good to go. I threw my big spinnerbait...

Man that sucks. That's always how it goes with nice people. I like to help people because not only is it the right thing to do but I always hope carma will come back to me and give me something good but it always seems like while helping someone I'm always the one to get screwed over or...

Wow. 10lb channel. I've seen a 7 but nothing bigger in a channel cat. Got a few 15lbs flatheads I've caught. I didn't mark where it went over but I know the general area. The guy I was fishing with trolled off while I was trying to rig a recovery pole and since we was in a tournament he didn't...

Well this is a interesting story. Fished a tournament last night and it all started when it got dark. I was throwing a 1oz hand made night time spinnerbait that has been landing 4lbers one after another when i slung it off and broke my line. I don't know how this happened but it did and FAST but...

Glad to hear the grand baby's doing good. At least you got to get out there. If we always caught it be catching and not fishing.

My next jon will prolly be a Weldbuilt. They look like tanks and you can order the anyway you want to. I got a hold of a great 9.8 mercury for my 1232 jon and after buying a bigger boat it doesn't get used but I would like to get a Weldbuilt 1436 or 1440 for the river and joy riding.

That sure is a beautiful little girl. I hope everything goes smoothly for her blood sugar. CONGRATULATIONS!

I wouldn't worry about it. The way I understand this topic which is beating to death is think of it as if you went swimming under your boat and looked up. Most colors will look blue or black anyways. A mirror finish will look black also, I worried a little bit about this same topic and...
