    New Boat

    My new SeaArk finally arrived at the dealership this week. They are doing the final assembly and prep and I will be picking it up next Wed. Here are a few pics the dealer sent me. I will post more when I get it all set up. It's a SeaArk 2072 vfx center console with Suzuki DF150 and Marine Master...

    New boat....hopefully

    After Jan 2nd I will know if I'm getting a new boat or not. If I do it will be a SeaArk 2072 VFX with Suzuki DF140A on back. Still debating whether or not to get floatation pods and dual axle or single axle trailer. I figured with boat, motor, trailer, fuel, etc total weight will be around 3k...

    Which motor?

    I'm considering a SeaArk 2072 vfx. The hull weighs 1250 lbs, it has a 15* deadrise, is 20' long and has a 94" beam. It is rated for up to 175 hp but money is a factor. Would a Mercury 115 Pro Xs command thrust or a Suzuki 140 be a better choice? I've read that they both produce 126 hp. Hard to...

    Bay boats

    Crestliner 2200 Bay, Excel 220 Bay Pro or SeaArk 2072 VFX? I want a tough boat that can do the bays, jetties and lakes in TX and last for many years. Which would be your choice and why?

    Excel 220 Bay Pro

    Does anyone have any experience with the Excel brand of boats? I'll be in the market for a new bay style boat in the 20-22ft range next spring. I'm not sure if I'll go aluminum or fiberglass at this point so I'm doing as much research on both as I can. If I go aluminum I'm liking the looks (and...

    Crestliner 2200 Bay opinions

    I'm going to get a new bay boat soon but haven't decided if I want aluminum or glass yet. Prices are similar from what I've seen. If I go aluminum the Crestliner 2200 Bay is laid out the way I'd like my boat to be. I have found positive reviews on Crestliner in general but haven't found anything...

    metal work in TN

    Anyone in TN know a shop that can do aluminum work? Preferably in middle TN area. I want to put the fuel tank in my center console closer to the front deck and add an ice chest/seat where the fuel tank was in the rear bench to get weight more evenly distributed.

    charging dual purpose battery

    First let me say I did a search but didn't find info on the subject. I bought a dual purpose battery from auto zone for the trolling motor only. Should I charge this after every outing like you would a deep cycle battery or will it shorten the life span?

    Transducer placement

    I have a G3 boat I want to add a fishfinder to. Problem is with mounting the transducer. I understand where/how it should be mounted but there is a welded "lip" where it should be. It's about the only spot far enough from the prop and in between ribs to avoid turbulance. Will mounting directly...

    trolling motor question
