    Boat cover idea

    I used an old billboard ad/banner for my boat cover. I got it free from my pa-in-law who sells billboard advertising. These things are tough as nails if you can get one. The only drawback is they are a little heavy. I have another one that has lasted 3 years and still going strong. Just punch...

    Big striper

    Went fishing on Lake Martin Alabama with a buddy and a guide April 2. We caught 8 fish that day, mostly 8-10 lbs. It was my turn to grab a rod and I latched hold of this monster. Tipped the scales at 36#s. Caught on 20# test using a large live bait. This one is going on the wall.

If I find a motor (still looking) that's a tiller steer, how...

    14' Sea Nymph- Finished!!

    So here's the new boat. It's a 1983 Sea Nymph "Traveler", 14' x 38" Floor width at the widest point. I assume that's how you measure one. It's about 58" across gunwales. As you can see the info plates are worn off and not legible. Anybody know what size motor this boat was rated for? I'm...
