even if I don't need any, I always pick up a half dozen at the store. Just have to carry a 7/16 wrench on the boat and all the different accessories can be moved where ever I want on the boat, going to look for some wing nuts today for some of the cleats and things that will regularly be...

Just wanted to put some pictures up of what I've found to be the best no modification necessary versatrack hardware I've found. I get mine at my local truevalue hardware in stainless and they work awesome, slide right into the channel with no extra work needed.

Jayvanhees, it's the only way I fish for them, switched it up about 5 years ago after fishing with some big fish masters. The big girls are lazy and IMO prefer an easy meal.

thanks jbb, pm on its way, do you remember where you got the tree stakes?

Looking to mount a transom mount tm on my bow until i can afford the ipilot, anyone have any pictures of their mounts or what materials they used? Obv a 2x4 would be fine for my application, but I'd like to run it a little bit neater than that. the bow mount plate is where I'll be mounting...

Cool, boat looks great!

is the camo on the motor a sticker? If so how has it held up?

thanks guys, all three released to fight another day

that looks awesome, some great work!

if you can, take a picture of the bottom. It really depends on how bad of condition its in in my opinion. If its something your going to have for a long time, you may as well spend the time and money and do it right. Saltwater can reek HAVOC on aluminum boats. The first boat I ever got was...

I have the minnkota 55 on my 1860 and it pushs it around nicely. If the price difference isn't too bad between the 45 and 55, just go with the 55, you'll be happy on days that you want to go far. With a new battery, i've trolled for 8 hours on speed 4 before the battery started to noticeably...

So I've been fishing this local lake for about 10 years now, at least a couple times a season. Needless to say its never coughed up anything good for me, and I've struggled to catch a pike over 40" anywhere that I fish. About 4 years ago I swiched up my pike/muskie program after fishing with a...

nice job so far! gotta love neat electrical work, that panel came out AWESOME! Love that motor

Please post if you decide to use it, I am interested to see what it looks like. Depending on the cost, if it lasts 2 seasons, thats good enough for me. I just checked the website and for that price I'll pick up a couple rolls. It also gave me an idea. I have those interlocking mats they use...

Has anyone made their own anchor pole mounts for a tin boat? Im looking to be able to pound a stake into the riverbed when beached on shore or anchored in shallow water. I know theres a ton of products out there, but I'm not really interested in $45 per side plus the cost of poles.

with the warm weather and lack of safe ice, the boat project list has been dusted off. I've got a bunch of things I'd like to accomplish this spring and hopefully will be able to get it all done. push pole, planning to make it out of pvc, 2 pieces, one smaller diameter inside the bigger for...

I will def be bumping up the horses in the next couple years, one of the many benefits of getting a great deal on the merc was that I should have no problem making a few bucks when I'm ready to upgrade. I'm thinking a 90 horse jet should do the trick.

thanks guys, I figured it out the other night, the throttle pin doesn't go into either of those holes, it actually goes into the clip in the picture. DOHHHHHHHH, ran her last night, everything worked pretty good, gonna have a buddy take a run with me and see if it needs to be adjusted any more.

Thanks BB, I am going to look into getting the 10x12 prop, she only got up to 18mph last night, do you remember where you got yours from? The gps mount I found in my parents garage, I'll see if I still have the package to see who makes it.

thanks zum, the plate in the front is called a tree snugger. attach to the versa track so it sticks off any part of the boat, and pull up to a tree or pilon wrap a strap around the pilon or tree and it holds the boat there. The bigfoot is a torque motor, will have to see how it does once i get...
