Good thing you did your test yesterday! It's currently 34* here, winds still clipping pretty good, and snow showers predicted for tomorrow! :shock:
I'm ready for Spring now!!!!
Its freezing here in Louisville and spiting snow!
I'm currently painting the soon to be baby's room. One more coat and I'm done for today and going to work on the boat. :?

Waterwings said:Hope you get the pics to run. Do you have any splices in the wiring that runs along the bottom of the boat? Just thinking about water-proofing the splices so as not to cause any shorts if/when water gets in the bilge. I bought some Liquid Tape for electrical use at Lowe's. Works well once it's dry (doesn't take too long). The built-in dauber in the bottle could be a little smaller though for applying the stuff to small pieces. I did drop a spot or two in the bilge of my boat when doing the wires for the bilge pump, and when I wiped it off it took the green paint right with it :shock:
alumacraftjoe said:Looking great. I am no help on the mount as that is similar to the mount on my jon., however mine is at an angle so that the motor is in the center of the boat when in the water. I think I like yours better, much more deck space when motor is stowed. If you ever need company taking it on a trip when you get her done let me know.
redbug said:SO far so good, I would place the depth finder as it is located in the bottom photo.
You might want to think about moving you trolling motor a bit towards the center of the boat It doesn't need to be centered but the closer the better
at the side you may have trouble with boat control..
That is how my tin boat was set up doesnt take much to get it there.flounderhead59 said:I like the fish finder right where it is at too. I have a tracker and the TM is located along the pport edge BUT the edge it is on points towards the center of the bow. When I put the TM in the water it is pert near center.
