I used red oxide primer, then painted everything with the cold galvanizing compound. After a year and a half it still looks like new. Check out my trailer rebuild on here somewhere. Bottom line is preparation. The cold galv. compound has EXCELLENT COVERAGE as well. it lays down beautifully for a...

It is a cool idea isn't it? It is a tinyhouseboat. People are building these in all shapes and forms. They have all sorts of links and pictures of tinyhouses being built on boats and handmade barges at tinyhouseblog.com . Check it out! I am building a tinyhouseonatrailer, then I'm building a...

Just a heads up! If you want to stay away from chemical strippers and cleaners for decals, residue, bumper stickers, window tint, glue, pinstriping, stains ect.. Then you should try using a STEAMER. Simoniz sells them. Two models that I'm aware of. One is hand held, and the other is like a small...

A friend of mine is really into fishing and boating. He gave me a 1981 Evinrude 4.5hp. Here are the pics. The pull cord goes on this side. Here is the rebuilt pull cord. Just needs a handle for the rope. I'll get from the dealer. I also made a stand out of some scrap wood I had. I made...

I just started fishing and boating last year. Never done it before. But, I do travel to and camp all over the province. I have fished the Fraser and Pitt. Alouette, Harrison as well. But I caught my first fish on Davis Lake outside of Merritt. Davis Lake Boss Lake, Shea Lake and Thalia Lakes are...

Nice boat u got there. Welcome to TB. We are neighbors. Check my build. Clean it up and use it. Don't cut into that boat, its fine the way it is, I think... :D

It's been a while since I've been on here. I thought I'd do an update on the Princecraft. The boat turned out great. I ended up buying a couple of fishing rods and getting my fishing lic., sortly after my last post on here. I went up to a favorite camping spot, Davis Lake. I caught my first 2...

I finally have some pics of the trailer complete and working very well. The bunks are great. and don't hurt the boat at all. I do have to shorten the safety chain and do something about the wheels and tires before any looong trips. At the launch This is as far as I nedd to go. Giver her a...

looks like you got yourself a deal there. a great project... it sure was patriotic or circus'y.... i like the idea of the american flag to show a hint of it's past. you should also name the boat as well... i'd call her "CIRCUS ACT".... just as another hint to its past. and if you ever have a bad...

Yeah, now that i think of it, "lckstckn2smknbrls" I placed the axle back far enough to increase tonque weight and improve steerability. The longer it is the easier it is to back up. the trailer is 15' long. It works good too, the tow vehicle doesn't even come close to water and neither do my...
