    What boat would you move up to?

    Love the look of the seasport 2800 commander towable with my truck but more beam and room inside. Fuel economy and price is a little crazy but I really don’t want to step up to 8’6” of beam. https://seasportboats.com/boat/commander-2800/

    What boat would you move up to?

    Definitely one of the reasons to trade up or stay with a trailerable boat. I thought my guides on my load rite would do it but I’m often backing back down to take another shot at Centring my 25 after a hard day it is a pain.

    What boat would you move up to?

    Thanks I hadn’t even noticed the captains chair being in the centre of everything. I’m a fan of Cats and the Tomcat just can’t see it being worth trading up in Canada due to taxes! Another choice is a 26 or 30 foot Commander made in Richmond BC. Good economy for a big boat in their diesel...

    How to get the wife on board for a C-Dory 22

    Check our Roche Harbour and when the boarder opens up Poets Cove. Lots of nice resorts in the PNW that she might like. I need to book my wife some spa time, to tip the scales in my favour. If she still likes camping get a truck camper and a 1 ton truck so you can do both like me!

    Buying used custom boat

    You will have a hard time selling it but at least in Alaska and PNW custom wood boats have a following. Check out Tolemans and Fishy fishy forum. If you have a big garage to store it and plan to keep it I’d go for it for 5-10 years. I would suggest finding a 20 foot Bayliner striper with an...

    Tomcat 24 repower thoughts

    Plus one for the df140. I’d take advantage of the high resale value of your low hour 100’s. My buddy had the same yami 100 and lots a few weeks and really out a damper on his season last year.

    Throttle stuck on Honda BF150

    Our throttle is very very sticky, so much so we had to turn the engine off, remove the cowling and manually reduce the throttle and it was very stiff. 2007 Honda BF150 with dual binnacle. I can't see any damage to the cable and the binnacle looks very complicated. Anyone replaced their Honda...

    Lowrance vs. Raymarine support and reliability

    That’s a great price, almost to cheap. Sounds like the 7 is a great deal. I’ve never had any issue in 7 years with Lowrance HDS units gen 2-3 and now carbon.

    Co-Ownership of Boats - anyone have experience???

    Yeah, just finishing a couple years of co-owning a 25. Partner bought a bigger and smaller boat so I’m looking for another partner. It’s great, half the hassle and cost. From maintenance to upgrades it’s has been a good partnership. Little bit of friction over cleaning, lost knife(that wasn’t...

    Trollmaster Kicker Throttle Control

    Thanks for the feedback on both! If I was to get the wired version I’d have to store it in the hatch where it would be pretty moist. Maybe I should buy an itroll, more expensive but it is a sealed waterproof unit.

    Trollmaster Kicker Throttle Control

    My wife is not trolling for me so lots of autopilot. When did you buy yours? There is a thread on the walleye forum and a local guy or two complain about battery drain and having to replace and send back the remote version, so I had been scared away.

    Looking for experience shares on throttle kicker control from the rear helm. We have a dual binnacle honda setup with a 9.9 I want to control from the back of the boat where I have a lowrance HDS 7 with autopilot. I'm about to pull the trigger on a Troll Master Pro throttle control, the wired...

    Fuel fill bonding wire

    Yes, our 25 has a grounding wire. The screw was rusted so we replaced it and had to reattach the wire. Keep a couple lock nuts handy and dialectic grease. I dropped a couple nuts it’s as difficult reach in there.
