    CVA SCOUT Rifle

    Anyone got any 1st hand experience with these break open single shots in either the .223 or .243. The majority of the reviews are favorable regarding accuracy/weight/with the occasional "I got a bad gun" review thrown in, but you can get a bad (insert any brand name here). Trying to line up...

    How much is too much

    wheel bearing grease that is. I have been wanting a kayak trailer, and found a 2000 Hustler boat trailer in good shape for a fair (reasonable) price on CL, so I called the guy and set up a time to look at it and inspect it if everything was true as the CL ad indicated. Most of the used...

    Does it do any damage for rivets to actually sit on a bunk while the boat is on the trailer?

    1542 War Eagle with 25hp yammer

    Anyone got 1st hand experience with the War Eagle line of boats, found a 06 1542 FLD with a 2012 25 yammer 4stroke, and a haul rite trailer, has the pods in the corners of the transom with a seat base between the pods so no rear bench seat which is ok with me in my mind. No benches at all. Low...

    Floatation foam ?

    Have a 04 Tracker PT175 w/ a 60, one of the package deals. Boat has a 12v TM system and I upgraded to a 55# MK Terrova with IP last year. I'm considering adding a 2nd TM battery to extend my trolling time/capability. The gas tank and battery compartment does not have room for a 2nd grp 27...

    how to for new bunks?

    I've looked and searched several different times/ways, is there a good how to on making new bunks, or can some one give a bit of guidance. I've seen/read where you shouldn't use PT on a tin ( I have a tracker PT175), so any particular type of wood is better, what do you use to seal it, just...

    TM ? maybe 2

    How do you measure the length of the shaft ( use a tape measure, yeah, I know [-X ) but from what point on the TM to what point on the TM to determine the length of the shaft? Anybody have one of the newer digital MG TM? Thinking of upgrading to one of these, but have read mixed reviews on...

    Kicker motors

    Have a 04 Tracker PT175, with a Merc 60 2stroke, and a 43 lb MG TM, all as a package deal. Boat is in good shape. I usually longline (troll) for crappie 99.9% of the time, and pull cranks for crappie on an occassional basis. My TM is 12v, and there is no room for another TM batt to go 24v w/o...

    TM makes a high pitched whine

    when I have it on high (5 sp MG Pro series 43). Speeds 1-4 are ok, a bit more noise as you go up in speed, but on high/5, it makes a high pitched whine, anything seriously wrong or really bad other than annoying? I'm handy but not good with electrical toys like this?

    gas guage not even close?

    have an 04 tracker PT175 with full instruments (volts, tach, speedo & gas guages), all oem stuff. Noticed the other day after putting some gas in the boat, and already had about a half a tank, that the gas guage was showing only a 1/4 of a tank. Tank is a 20 or 22 gal (can't remember which)...

    Cleaning up the snake fest at the battery

    I am wanting to clean up the wiring mess in my 04 PT 175 at the batteries. The batts are beside the gas tank, and covered all the time by the comparment lid, but its' just a pain to try and do anything simple like putting water in the batts due to all the wiring. The wiring for the TM batt is...
