    You are getting old

    My grandfather had a “party” phone line. Party meant the line was shared and I remember picking up the phone to call out and hearing someone else using the phone. I also remember a penny bag of candy which would more than satisfy your sugar crave. I remember when the family sat down for a meal...

    Mogadore Reservoir in Ohio

    I have been having good luck bass fishing lately at Mogadore Reservoir. I also wanted to include a picture of a cat that I caught on a smaller KVD crank bait. This was taken the day before Labor Day 2014. I'm not a cat fisherman but the fight was a blast. And yes I released him to be caught again.

    WOW! Somebody had a bad day.

    I removed the lower unit as I needed to replace the water pump too. I then placed the scag on top of a 2 X 4 and beat it with a small sledge. The skag straightened right out without using heat.

    1992 Evinrude motor color question

    It says dark blue for a 1992 Evinrude. It's definitely a shade of gray most likely influenced by Tracker or Force.

    1992 Evinrude motor color question

    I have a 1992 aluminum Tracker boat equipped with a 40 HP Evinrude outboard motor. The paint has come off the fiberglass hood and I would like to reprint it but I'm having trouble finding the correct color match. Just purchased a can of charcoal non-metallic and I can tell you it's not correct...

    Need anti-slip material

    The stuff I have seen for skateboards is similar to sandpaper. Mine is a bit more forgiving to bare feet.

    Need anti-slip material

    In the process of restoring a 20 year old aluminum Tracker. There was a piece of black anti-slip material installed on the bow that had adhesive on one side securing it. Can someone point me in a direction to get material to replace without needing to buy a 15foot piece? Thanks in advance

    Forgot to mention that because the trolling motor power plug seems to be a concern I'm going to use a 175 amp Anderson Connector.

    Thanks for the help guys. The Blue Sea switches can handle 350 amps and I'm going to use 60 amp breakers to protect wiring/trolling motor.

    Carpet installation

    That's like 4 bucks a running foot which is a really good price. I'm looking at the 28 oz carpet which is 15 bucks a foot. I'll have over 700 bucks in carpet.

    Aluminum Bass Tracker Renovation.

    I cut down the original flotation that you can still see on the left and right size to accommodate 2 storage areas. The original waterlogged foam that was under the old floor was scrapped. The majority of wiring will be routed through the PVC that tracker originally put in place under the foam...
