    F/N/R lever, hot foot - RXT215 to 16/60 Jet Jon

    I understand that. The hot foot is for the throttle. I’m looking for any input for an aftermarket lever for the replacement OEM F/N/R. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    F/N/R lever, hot foot - RXT215 to 16/60 Jet Jon

    Hi y’all. I need a solution to the F/N/R lever. Any options out there? I have the factory one but I don’t necessarily love it. I also ordered s hot foot. Any suggestions for hiking that up to a ski cable? Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone know how to remove the accessory holder from these boats? I whacked it with the dead blow hammer and the whole boat shook and the accessory holder/trim piece didn’t move. I think it may be glued in place but I didn’t look underneath it to see if it was bolted yet. Sent from my iPhone...

    Before: After one coat: I’ve gotten two more coats of red on since these photos were taken. I have one more coat of white, then some black detail work to do. Looking forward to getting the painting done. I won’t be able to finish this entire project until the winter of 19/20. I have to...

    Getting some work done this weekend! It’s been a while since I posted, but I’m moving on with life and it feels good. Spent an hour or so painting tonight, I look forward to doing it all day tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I agree. I however do not want a bass boat, I want a bass boat layout and I think I’m willing to settle on the multi-species style layout. I had an 86 Ranger and loved it, but I want something that is multi functional and fun to spend time with friends and family. My plan now is not to cut...

    You think this platform would be large enough for the front the boat? If I leave the consoles and make the windshield an open one, this bad boy would be a fishing machine. I'm debating on making it a completely flat front deck. I am liking the idea of moving the horn to the very front. I could...

    Thanks. I put the top up and thought the same thing. This boat is awesome. Maybe I will make the windshield into a folding windshield and just sawzall out the front and make a nice casting platform upfront. Leave the windshield and consoles in place. Then install a rear deck, chairs, etc...

    I put the top up tonight! It is a Great Lakes water bonnet. It appears to be from 1977. It’s in darn good shape yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I have no idea what they had going on with this trailer as far as the planks go. I haven’t had it in the water yet, but it looks like I could walk from the tongue to the axle on the trailer. I’ll be working on it again tonight so I will take a few more pictures. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Thanks. I understand that. I bought it at the bottom of the value barrel and don’t plan on reselling it. I couldn’t find another larger aluminum hull for less than 7k or so with an open bow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yep, that’s my plan. Here are some rough ideas: So that’s the baron which would be fun for all purposes, but the Pro-V bass layout is great for fishing up front I feel: The main console in the Crestliner is pretty far forward so that may force me into copying the Baron layout. I think...
