Thanks guys! I ended up ordering the part about 30 mins ago from boats.net and it was the same part number but it was only 60 bucks including shipping! I just can't wait to get it in!

Got a new boat a few weeks ago (some of you might've seen the thread) and it has been sitting in a shop building for the past 25 or so years. The motor on the back is an old Merc 110 (9.8hp) and is in pretty nice condition so i want to use it this year or until i can find a console steer 25. I...

I used a foam roller for 99% of my boat and trailer. After i got a base coat down i went behind it and touched up small areas with a brush. Then i did a second coat the same way... that type of paint flattens out nicely so anyway you apply it shouldn't be much of a problem.

Not a bad show but the Top 2 on my list right now is 1. Duck Dynasty 2. Major League Fishing (comes on the Outdoor Channel on Fridays and is AWESOME tournament fishing... KVD is crushing it right now!)

Very nice gun! I have a stainless one with a 3 inch barrel...2.5" shells. Its alot more accrate than people give it credit for. The self defense round with the shot and 3 copper discs is actually pretty amazing. At least 2 of the discs would hit a 1x2 foot box from 20-30 steps. I really like...

I used Ford Blue on my boat with hardener and Gloss Black on my trailer without hardener... Self etching primer on the boat and oil based primer on the trailer and here is my opinion. USE THE HARDENER!!! My trailer still looks in decent condition but I really haven't abused it but i know it...

I'm considering getting this stuff too... how pricey is shipping on it?

Well we're calling it even as long as she gets to go fishing too! Plus I got her a big basket of discount easter candy today and we got this little furball last week! Thanks for the complements on the boat! -I'm assuming you fish Greers quite a bit? How have y'all been doing down there? I...

First off HAPPY EASTER everybody! The other day my fiance and I were talking and she mentioned that her grandpa told her that he had an old boat in his shop and if I wanted it I could take it. He didn't tell her anything about it so I was a little reluctant and didn't get my hopes up because I...

Looks great! What is that oval riveted to the side for? Was it a logo or a patch or something?

Thanks mike! Actually this boat is similar to yours... it is setup bass boat style with a larger front deck and a bench seat behind the console. More opinions are welcome!

nice! I found some old paper pre-dam topo maps last year in one of our lake cabins on Greers Ferry here in Arkansas. Apparently my great grandpa bought them years ago and we just happened upon them during spring cleaning!

Alright guys here we go... last sunday my fiance's grandpa gave me his old Fisher Marine boat for free because he heard that i like to mess around with boats (first time this hobby has EVER saved me money!). The boat is rated up to a 25hp but right now it has an old merc 110 (9.8hp) in prestine...

before you paint you might want to seal the wood and then run them in water (bathtub, pool, small pond, etc...) to see how they act. You might need to add weight in places to keep it balanced and it would suck to have to drill thru a nice new paint job!

GENIOUS!!! =D>
