Here’s the deal… I have my 17” mod V for fishing. What my buddy and I like to do is get in the about Friday after work, and slowly travel the river until it starts to gets dark, then we pull over set up a tent, build a fire break out the beer and stay the night, then get up Saturday and...

Ya. I have a ratty old 17’ mod V that needs some work. It has a 60hp Even and is very slow and sluggish. Someone here suggested that I might have some waterlogged foam in the haul. So… a complete teardown. And I am going to build it up the way I want… this is my river boat, so I want it...

I like to stand when I drive, I’m not into speed, but I like to see. I am really thinking about doing it. I have to redeck my ratty old boat anyway. So I am going to do a complete overhaul, strip it all out and start fresh. I’m looking for ideas… pictures…

NOT ME!!!!! this was the winter before I deployed... 27 degrees. (25 is my cut off) you see I figured it out... above 25 plus the wind chill of going 60 mph it would take 25 minutes of exposure before permanent damage occurs... only takes me 20 minutes to get to work. I'm good! :mrgreen:

was 113 yeserday here in Bagdad.... and don't know one say "ya but it's a dry heat" so is a bond fire and you don't go sticking you *** in one of them do you? :shock:

I was emailing a friend of mine about the restoration I am going to do this winter and one of the subjects was color…. I have a 17” mod V with console steering. When I do start on this boat, I am gong to redeck the whole thing and move the console to the center and forward just a bit...

Took them all to the Machine gun range. shot the M249, the M2, and the MK19. Even in combat, we have to train…. Make sure these guys can shoot straight. So here is the short version… this was the best time I have ever had being completely miserable. Zero day… got on the bird at 2030 at...

I am getting home in late July (we have just been cleared to say that) and I want a small project to do… I will be looking for an inexpensive revolver that I want to try a new refinishing technique on. I will consider anything you have to sell…. So anyone have something lying around that...

I am from… Meadville Pa and the surrounding area. I want to move back to North West Pa when I retire from the Army in a few years. Unfortunately 95% of the lake in that area are restricted to under 10hp… but I’ll burn that bridge when I come to it. I am stationed at Fort Drum NY, there they...

I know I haven't posted much, being in Iraq I don't have a lot to contribute... but I got me some fine stickers in the mail and so I figured some pictures were in order. here I am... I am currently on Camp Striker. I will get you guys some more pictures on various vehicles as I have time...

I did a search… https://bunnell.olx.com/17-foot-john-boat-2000-iid-3116610 This is like my boat (this isn’t mine) but it’s the same kind except mine has two livewells under the seats and the front deck is just about a foot higher than the floor where the seats are…. other than that, it looks...

That is a great looking boat! And much more affordable than I would have thought…. Hummm…. I will give this some more serious thought! Now forgive my stupidity… but what does 60/40 mean?

It seems very heavy to me…. I am “considering” a new jet boat, but we will see on that. I am not happy with my boat at all. This is my first boat. I bought is off my neighbor just before I deployed. My buddy and I have spend a lot of time in a canoe and I thought this would be great for us...

Not until end of July… been here for 11 months now, only 4 to go!

I have 60hp Evenrude on my boat that runs fine. I also have a 75hp Evenrude in my barn that hasn’t run in about 4 years. Would that extra 15hp be worth taking the 75 in to the shop and get working properly to use instead of the 60? It’s ratty old riveted 17’ Jon with a consol. This boat is...
