I finally got my front deck carpeted and installed. I used 3/4" plywood and 2x4's. The extra weight helped my boat ride a little better in choppy water so far. Adding that deck is like having a different boat. I still have a couple little things to do still but it is fishable. You can't see it...

Looks good. I have the same boat with the a 20 hp mercury too. What model trolling motor do you have on it? I have a hand operated on mine for now.

Well I finally got the hatches cut out. Before doing so I took the boat for a test ride to see how it did with the extra weight. It actually made the boat ride a little better in choppy water having the extra weight up front.

I'm fishing an upcoming bass tournament out of my 2014 Tracker Topper 15 that has a factory live well in the front bench. I have to have a working aerator in my live well in my boat. I posted pictures below of the two that I'm looking at. Do you guys think the first aerator pictured will be...

So I have had my boat for a year now. I finally started working on my front deck. I decided to leave an open space between my deck and front bench for my tackle box, trolling motor battery and maybe an ice chest just to free up some floor space in the rest of the boat. I still need to cut...

Nice job. Where did you get the pull tabs for you hatches?

Thanks guys for the feedback. Currently I fill the live well in the front bench. I have my trolling motor battery in front of the front bench plus my trolling motor mounted on the front bow. (Minn Kota Endura C2) That all helps some. As far as slowing down goes I come off plane when I slow down...

Is there anything you can do get get a flat bottom Tin to ride a little better in light chop about 1 ft or less? I have. 2014 tracker Topper 15 with a 2014 20 hp Merc tiller handle. It rides great in the creeks. I realize a flat bottom is not going to ride smooth like a v hull. I'm just...

I took it in for a couple of things. Inner seal on trailer leaking grease, hull leaking. The seal was good just had too much grease in it from factory so it is fine now, they did not find a leak in the hull but did find that water was spraying in over the transom from transducer. They filled the...

Mine is doing th same thing. I was told to raise iit. I raise mine about 1/4" and it's not spraying into the boat now.

I have a Tracker Topper 15 that I bought back in March. I took it to Bass Proshops where I bought the boat. They told me that I owe $63 diagnostic fee. I told them this should be covered under warranty. They said if it needed parts it would have been covered but I still have to pay the...

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not looking at any big tournaments. I have been asking around a little and was told that some places would be off limits because it would not be fair that I could get into some places that the bigger boats can't get into. But there is no off limits for the big boats...

I haven't fished in a Bass tournament in years. I no longer have a bass boat. I have a 15 Tracker Topper with a 20 hp with a livewell. I think the main requirement for a tournament is having an aeriated livewell to keep fish alive which I have. I was thinking of entering a local tournament not a...

Nice job redoing your boat. It looks really good. I'm thinking of laying out my boat like you did. It will be nice to have storage below deck so you can move around the boat without stuff all at your feet. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

So I got my new deep finder with gps installed and my top speed is 23 mph with me and gear. My boat is a 2014 with a 2014 Mercury 20 hp 4 stroke. I have only had the boat a couple months and have only done a few small mods. I just rigged it up for fishing, trolling motor, seats and 2 depth...

Hey, I have a question about the live well lid. Looks like you removed it from bench and then remounted it to the plywood you put down for decking. Did you just drill out the rivets to remove it or is it attached underneath too. Did you have to do any mods to it to re-attach it?

I punctured the side of the tube and it worked fine.

I'm loving my new boat. The 20 hp really pushes it great. I ave only done the basics, mount seats, trolling motor and depth finder up front. I will upload some pictures tonight when I'm on the computer. I can't them to post from my iPad for some reason.

Thanks guys for the comments. I'm going to put a hole in the side of tube and try it today.

I've read some post were guys are using 3M 5200 to mount a piece of cutting board to transom to mount transducer to. My question about the 3M 5200 is that it says use within 24 hours after puncturing the inner seal on tube. I have a tube that I opened a couple months ago and has been sealed with...
