Well I finally got around to cutting holes under my V-berth to accommodate the old hatches for some much needed storage. I had foam sprayed in through 2" holes on top of berth (under mattress). It was full of foam. What a bear getting that all out. I used Sunbeam's suggestion of the grit...

Thanks Bob. My research so far has led me to the "Do It Yourself" kit. Panther has a model for Johnson Evinrude motors, but that's all I have found so far. Lots of power tilt jacker type brackets out there, but that requires drilling and filling holes in the transom. No thanks. Anyone else...

Hello all, I have an older model Tohatsu 9.8 kicker motor that recently seems to not want to stay in the upright (not in use) position. The motor sticks out on an aluminum garelick and is precarious at best to operate. I was wondering if anyone has rigged up a power tilt trim remote...

http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t= ... c&start=60 I think this is the Thistle II seen here on Page 4 of the tread "the ugliest boat ever". It looks very similar with the chimney and all. Geography is the same too.

Does anybody know what this biggest red tide outbreak in recent history means for the crabbing season this year? Should we even bother throwing the pots over the side? Grazer

I was letting the fuel run out of a Honda BF115A with Programmed Fuel Injection and realized that it's not like my older carburated Honda model BF90. I shut the engine off as it was beginning to sputter. Can running out the fuel in these PFI models cause any issues? Grazer :|

I agree with others that your mods are great, and thanks for sharing. I was wondering about the water you uncovered. Any further insights as to how or why the water got in there? There's the anchor locker drain theory and the long screws securing the brass keel strip and penetrating the hull...

Well done Ray. I always check out the "Project-A-Palooza" when ever one appears. Your work is excellent. Keep them coming. I have a Blue Sea USB charger outlet and it also comes with the parasitic draw that has me reserved about installing it. I think this will solve the problem, if only I...

Richard, What section did you find a similar nylon washer in that hardware store of yours?

Thanks for all your comments. I have looked at boats.net and yes the shipping is the expensive part, especially outside of the USA. I haven't checked out partspak.com yet. Any other on-line sites folks are using that have had success with for ordering engine parts would be greatly...

Hello All, Putting the boats away for the winter is always a sad time of year, but sadder is trying to locate those gaskets for the plugs on the gear oil drain screw. As we all know, this critical component, must be replaced every time the screws (at least 2 per motor) are removed. Does...

Another option you may consider is glassing in fiberglass angle that would accomodate a similarily sized cooler for the other times of year your not Tuna fishing. I understand it won't be flush with the sole, but would certainly give you the strength required to hold that heavy tank down and...

I seen this boat in Haines, AK this weekend past. She is all cleaned up, repowered, and still catchin' halibut.
