[QUOTE="Froggy, post: 130491, member: 2562"] So here I was first day on the job, first issue.... that bicycle padlock from Years ago, lost the key ages ago, if you fish the watershed NYC suburbs, you are required to leave the boat there at all times, so new boats had to have some extra serious locks and chains, cables etc, thieves galore, I never got one stolen, cable thru round hole corner transom, then into the bike lock etc used to own 4 boats, oh yeah you could only use it in one reservoir, so with 5 reservoirs around, a lot of people had 5 boats, row only. Back to the padlock, I thought I could cut it with the wheel, but it was snug in the groove, put plan B into action....[ATTACH type="full" alt="100_6611.jpg"]4[/ATTACH] Then on to the middle seat, plan on doing one large door on top, I fish 90% times alone, second seatpost will be in front of bench, see mock 1x1 Removing the top I was flabergasted by the flotation, great shape, solid, I stand on it (220lbs) I thought it would be crumbled up... Its a 1985 model... Any how its a start!!! [/QUOTE]
