I used a small section of aluminum plate as my bow mount decking and hit the edges with a rubber mallet to bend them flush.

To think there was once a 2000 foot high glacier where I am now sitting. I suppose "global warming " melted that? Oh wait. . It did! Long before man could be blamed for it.
Not sure if this is what you are considering or not but thought I would share just in case.
This is the corner platform that I built to hold my FF and to hold my Navionics App device. I also have two 12v sockets mounted underneath and well as my switch box that controls power to the various...
That is exactly where I have mine mounted and have no issues. When in tow I have horizontal rod holders that secure them to the bench top. But when on the water I place them in the vertical holders (just like yours but I made mine out of pvc pipe and there are 4 of them).
Yes, if you are moving...
Been following this site for years. Each season I add a few more small mods to my Grumman Sea Nymph 1455. I almost exclusively troll with it.
I wanted to post a picture in order to share a few ideas, particularly the corner instrument table, bow mount platform and rod holders.
The corner...
Barefoot_Johnny not only does your post deserve a new thread, it deserves to be made sticky!
I am absolutely horrified by what I just read/saw as I am sure many others on this forum will be when they see the corrosion that you are attributing to the 5200.
I applied mine over an etching...
Not sure what a chicken knob is but I like the ones in the right hand photo. The style matches the art-deco feel of the motor.
White may not look too bad. I would have to see both. Perhaps time for some photoshop?
I have two electrics (bow mount and transom mount) along with a 9.9 Johnson on my 14' tin for two main reasons.
First, since I use a tiller control on my 9.9, I find it easier to deploy the transom electric at those times when I just need to do a quick position correction while anchored. I...
Jonah, You seem to think that it is acceptable to require a person to go through the hassle I just described, simply to just "drive" through the State.
Your "toll road" analogy is also flawed, as I am using the road that I am being tolled for. I am not using your waterways, yet you still...
I live in Ohio, and I (theoretically) got a call from my buddy in North Dakota saying he has a free boat for me if I can come get it tomorrow. Therefor I will be driving through MN tonight.
What am I supposed to do? Find the a Dept. of Motor Vehicles on a map, plan my trip around where that...
No. Analogy = wrong.
Your analogy has the person DRIVING through Minnesota (with a rod in trunk), not fishing in Minnesota, therefor the "fishing" license SHOULD not and IS NOT required.
That being true (which it is) then why shouldn't the same apply to the trailer.
Long time lurker, rare poster here, but this topic has my attention.
Your analogy is not correct.
Based on your comparison, I would have to buy a fishing license just to simply have my fishing pole in my trunk as I drive through your State.
This law is far too reaching. I am all about...
I am considering adding an Anchormate style anchor reel/crank to my rig.
All of the setups I see have pulleys and exposed anchor rope running from the bow to the crank which is often mounted in the aft of the boat. I have a tiller style 14" tin so that would be my situation.
My question is...
