Yes, I'm pretty sure that that is the size battery I bought. It is at my parents house right now with the boat. I have a 30 lb thrust motorguide w/ a tiller handle, and my boat is a 1432. Until I get the outboard fixed, I really dont have any long trips planned in the boat. I mainly plan on...

Thanks Russ- About the spotlight though, I knew it would take the most power off the battery minus the trolling motor, but I figured I could go buy one of the classic yellow ones for like $15 at walmart to leave in the boat all the time..I probably should just go ahead and get a rechargeable...

While my 9.8 mercury is in the shop, I'm basically going to use my motorguide trolling motor as a full time motor to get places on small state park and city lakes around east texas.. I do have a battery at the moment...it is the $89 one at Academy. (heres the link for it)...

Definitely DON'T put it inside the boat. It's too rough (for feet or fishing line) and will get too hot to be inside a boat. I used it on my trailer, and I think it's gunna work out great in that application, but not inside the boat. I can only speak for Herculiner tho, not any of the other...

Thanks for your advice man--I ended up using the paint removing wheels to finish up the boat and the trailer. It got the job done..

Hahaha, I know man. Gotta keep her happy though, shes good to me so I've gotta be good to her to :mrgreen:

Paint is on! I'm pretty proud of what we got done this past weekend. Replaced transom wood, and finished sanding the boat AND the trailer. Tuesday while I was on my way back my uncle went ahead and put 2 coats of paint on the outside of the boat...I think he is getting just as pumped about...

Well, its been a couple of weeks, and I haven't got as much done on my boat as I thought I would in that time. I've been real busy with the girlfriend, and also busy working on it seems like every piece of farm equipment my family has.. I have gotten most of the boat sanded down and ready to...

Thanks man - your boat looks great, and it helps you have a 1432, there doesnt seem to be many of them on this site.. I'll keep my eyes open... We have an academy here, I saw several hummingbirds for under $100 the other day. They are pretty simple though, which is expected for the price I'm...

That is my parents' place in Athens...I live in Tyler right now, working and going to school, and for me its only about a 30 min. ride home, which is nice to head back on the weekends and once or twice a week to do some fishing and other stuff..

So no wolmanized wood? thats what I was planning on redoing the transom in. I know it has traces of copper in it, but didnt realize that was bad for an aluminum boat...

Hey everybody, my name is Ross and this is my first time posting on tinboats.net...this is an awesome site...I found this site about a week ago looking for ideas for my "new" 1432 eldocraft. This is my first boat (family has had them over the years, but first one titled in my name)...I'm pretty...
