    Jail time for carrying handguns into Canana aboard boat

    Not that I want to deny the guys right to have all of the guns that he wants but, something does seem fishy about his story. I'm a gun guy and doubt that any legitimate gun owner honestly forgets where their other guns are. It doesn't seem that he had any other motive other than not declaring...

    I see in your first picture that you have a home marine test tank for your boat as well. :wink

    Putting together a Great Lakes fishing Tackle Box (Advice)

    I'm not a fisherman so, I can't help you there. However, if you are going out on any of the great lakes, I recommend good safety equipment. Life jackets, extinguishers (more than 1), food and water, change of clothes, vhf, cell phone, navigation, weather forecast, and first aid. This may sound...

    16 Angler Wiper Blades

    I just replaced the set on our cruiser with a trim-to-fit set made by Trico model 47-700. Set of 2 was $6.99 from Advance Auto Parts. I actually trimmed mine about 1.5 inches longer. Very easy to do, took only a minute or two. Seems to work fine in the driveway.

    One Dead After Boat Overturns Near Camano Island

    I've seen the pictures and that is a Nimitz class C-Dory. What class would my C-Dory be? Every time someone asks me what kind of boat that is, I say it's a humanitarian and peace keeping vessel. But, does it have a "class"? Or, because I'm from Michigan, does it mean I have no class?

    No Juice :(

    Is there a circuit breaker? On my 16, there is one in the back. If tripped, you have to manually reset it.

    Transom plug leaks on 16 Angler

    Before adding the camperback, I noticed water would blow back from the waves I hit and end up in the back. It depended on wind direction.

    First night out in my 16, any tips?

    Definitely, like dotnmarty said, take the table down. I removed mine after it's maiden voyage and never put it back. Almost 3 years now and I can't think of a use for it yet.

    First night out in my 16, any tips?

    Not much to say for 1 night. Use 2 anchors, keep the mast light on, have fun. I've made a quick breakdown bed extension for ours. We've done as long as a week on ours with 2 people and 2 beagles. We actually practiced a few nights in the driveway on the trailer to see what would be needed to...

    Selling your boat safely

    The last time that sold a car, I got a cashiers check and went with the buyer to the bank. The teller said that everything went fine but, if later, the check was bad, the money would be removed and we were responsible. Cash isn't safe either. Locally, an older woman was caught passing fake $100s...

    Lectrotabs

    Bennett sport tabs on our boat. Pics in my album. I thought that the hydro fluid in the reservoir was vegetable or mineral oil. Or maybe it was the hydraulic clutch on my KLR650. :crook
