    How many of you have used a spool gun for aluminum?

    T-Motor mounting bracket

    I wasn't a fan at first. Once you watch a couple you will find he has a lot of good information he gives for free. The Tiny Boat bracket will work but it is flimsy and looks like a head ache waiting to happen. Not a fan of TBN as thier videos are nothing but one big advertisement.

    Best pourable transom replacement product?

    I used this on my Lowe 1448 and it is one investment I don't regret. Easy to cut to size with a circular saw and instalation was a breeze. Very solid and no flex. Here's mine. Link below. Transom Replacement

    Post a pic of your Boat!

    Just a little old (1979) Lowe 1448 that I built last winter. It now has a Terova instead of the Powerdrive. I also replaced the 15HP Yamaha with a 25HP Yamaha. It will do 25 mph with me and all of my gear and 22 with another person. This boat is awesome and has seen alot of fish landed!

    Deck Template - Best material??

    Are there any manufacturing companies in your area? Alot of things get shipped on pallets with cardboard on the pallet and under the product. Ask and they might give it away.
