To be named... 1436

That is about the high average price around my area for that motor.

Most are about that around here to.

Because most of the 15 are a little but out of my budget. And I am going to use this boat a lot for duck hunting in 9.9 restrictions

well today I had planned to have the deck screwed down. But when I woke up I found out my truck had been broken into. That took a couple hours of boat time away. I came out pretty good but my neighbor owns a pool service and had ALOT of moneys worth taken. But I did get the hatch cut out. So maybe tommorow will be a good work day! I may have to drive the boat to church and lowes though. Its turning into a monsoon! haha

Yea, the radar ain't looking real good right now is it. :shock:

for the north east! we are just about out of it now!

 

[JMichael]

Got any idea how many inches of rain you guys got from it?

 

[theyyounggun]

around 3!

Didn't get any work done but I got more supplies.

All of the hardware to finish transom.
Hardware to mount the hinges and pull.
And carpet

When we get a little bit warmer weather I will be able to do 5200. Just to cold right now.

I'm not good with electrical. Will someone please tell me what gauge wire and what size breaker ( if I need one) I will need? A 40 pound minn Kota from front of boat to back.and I will be using a minn Kota TM plug to.

I did get the head flipped today though.

 

[JMichael]

I believe 6-8 gauge with a 50 amp breaker would work.

BTW I got 4.2" of rain from that storm. That's 5.3" total in the last few days which will go a long way toward restoring the water levels of 2 local lakes around here.

Thanks for the info.

That's good y'all got so much. Our local lake was helped pretty good to!

 

[theyyounggun]

Would it be okay to use a motor guide breaker?

 

[JMichael]

Brand shouldn't matter, it's only the amp rating you need to be concerned with.

That's what I thought

A little update.... boat has been sitting in the garage with everything cut. I havent had time to do anything on it though except a little on the transom still waiting for warm enough weather for 5200. Im shooting to have it done by April 1st. got back on looking for a OB though.

 

[theyyounggun]

EXCELLENT condition! Still shooting for April 1st!

 

[theyyounggun]

just realized that i dont have a the pin for my trim...i think... anyone know where I can get one?

 

[theyyounggun]

I picked up a seat and 2 flush mount rod holders. The holes for the holders are drilled. The deck will have carpet by tommorow night.

I have a plan in my mind for mounting the seat where all I had to buy was the swivel.

Who knew that it could be 70 degrees one day and a couple days later its snowing on spring break! Only in Arkansas

 

[theyyounggun]

The mariner runs great! It a SOLID pee streem. I just need to find a deeper barrel to run it in. The bucket I have is to shallow and the hose cant keep up with how much water the prop throws out. I cant figure out where to put the earmuffs on it. It will only idle for a little while in neutral but im pretty sure once I get it where I can run it a while it will get the old gas burned out of it and it will be all good.

 

[theyyounggun]

After getting some cooperating weather the transom is finally SEALED! If the weather can hold out for me Saturday ill take her out on her maiden voyage!

 

[theyyounggun]

Had plans of spending the fine Friday fishing but looks like the weather is gonna put a damper on that.
