[QUOTE="gmoney, post: 208519, member: 4200"] So I ended up getting the boat ready to fish two weekends ago. I was able to get a bunch of my list done including: 1. install motor and gas tank 2. change oil and filter in motor 3. replace lower gear oil 4. charge boat battery 5. fix small leak in keel guard/ rebuild front keel guard 6. register trailer I ended up buying a trailer hitch and installing it on the car. It actually tows quite well behind the Accord. I still have to cut out plywood to fit inside hatches and put ID #'s on the boat. I will leave those things for the future and just fish for now. Last weekend I took the boat out for the fishing derby at my work with my girlfriend. We ended up doing alright considering we had never fished the lake before. I ended up catching 3 walleye's and a 20" pike and my grilfriend caught 5 walleye and a small mouth bass. It must have been a tough day fishing because my 20" pike put me in 7th place out of 150 people, so I won a rod and reel! I also purchased the Garmin echo 200 the other day. They had just gotten them in stock at Cabela's, so I scooped one up before they were all gone. I plan to install it and try it out this weekend. I will post some pictures of the keel fix and the new fish finder after this weekend. Here is a picture of me with a 16 and 1/4" walleye that I caught in the derby [img]https://i1181.photobucket.com/albums/x435/gmoney422/Boat%20Project/106_0213.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
