I've never removed my grates before, but need to remove them and straighten them after a weekend of gravel grinding due to really low water conditions. Do I need a punch that's as wide as the jet foot to be able to remove the pins holding in the jet grates or does it give away after going in so...

It's a 2014 1860 semi V with the recessed trolling motor pedal and a 2013 Evinrude Etec 150. I took it down to Taneycomo this past weekend for some trout fishing and spent quite a bit of time in it. I love it! It ran 40-41 mph on calm water so it's 4-5mph than my 1852/115 was. The biggest...

Anybody have first hand experience with each of these motors? I've been in the same style of boat with a 150 and a 225ho and the difference was about 10 mph on the top end.

2007 Legend SS 1860 semi v 2007 175hp Evinrude Etec 2007 single axle aluminum trailer I know a guy who may be selling his and I may be interested in selling mine and buying his depending on what he wants. This boat see's the river two or three times a year and sits in his basement when not...

Several people couldn't make it to do scheduling conflicts since it was postponed due to the horrible weather on the first Saturday of February. It's a shame because it couldn't have been any more perfect for February. We left the access around noon and messed around on the river for 4-5 hours...

We had plenty of water and above freezing temps which made for a great turnout. If I counted correctly, we had 18 boats show up this year and probably 40-50 people. After we finished riding we got the fryer and fire going and had a smorgasbord of fried deer, fish, chicken, okra, potatoes and a...

I was talking with some other guys about how my boat is leaking but I can't find the hole. They looked and said that since there is a decent crease in one of the ribs that insurance would probably total it out. Do they really total boats out that easily? One guy showed me a hole he put in his...

This year it's starting at 11am at Indian Ford Campground on the Gasconade near Vienna, MO and they are running 18 miles up river to Thox Rock. Just figured I would throw this out there in case anybody is nearby and hasn't heard about it. Hopefully we have a pretty good crowd this year. I wasn't...

I thought I made it through the year with year of low water unscathed but apparently one of the few hits I took put a small hole in my hull. It's somewhere on the driver side towards the back of the boat because when I back it in to the water a few feet, water starts slowly coming in from the...

The reverse gate on my Etec seems to have excessive side to side play. Sometimes when I am going forward and want to go back to neutral, it will bind up on me and prevent me from going back to neutral. Most times I can just move it forward and then back a few times and "jiggle" it free and I can...

I've got several scrapes and chips on my hull paint from rocks, limbs, sand bards, etc. What's the best way to touch those areas up? Do I need to go through the trouble of wet sanding and spraying them with an air gun or can I just sand the spots smooth and slap some paint on with a brush? You...

If anybody is bored, theres a jet boat run on January 21, 2012 on the Gasconade near Belle, MO. Boats are leaving Rollins Ferry Access at 9am and running upriver to the first gravel bar above the Hwy 42 bridge near Vienna. The round trip will be nearly 50 miles. The plan is to run up to the...

I got my trolling motor pulled off and replaced it with my rail and lights. Can't wait for that first batch of freshly fried suckers to come out of the grease this weekend! :mrgreen: Here's some pics of my boat all ready to go.

Here's a some new T-bar rod racks I made for the boat. It's setup with Monster 33/45 rod holders right now for catfish, but also plan to get some Bee Ready's or Hiteks for long lining crappie in the future. I fish for a wide variety of species and don't always need the rod holders in the way so...

This is the speed switch and the threaded arm that the knob attaches to is stuck and doesn't spin any. I'm guessing this should spin pretty easily to adjust between speeds right? It looks like the knob is stripped out and not doing anything when I am turning it. This is on a 12v 55# Minnkota Edge.

Do they accomplish the same thing? My boat has trim tabs welded on each corner of the transom, but the motor doesn't have a whale tail. Just curious.

I seen some zerk fittings on my motor that looks like they are for the steering and possibly the power trim? I know my power trim makes a slight grinding noise as it's almost all the way up and I figured it needs grease or something. Do I need to use a special type of grease for these? I've got...

This is the same guy who has already had like three other boats (two of them being Legends). He sold his last one to buy his truck but couldn't take it any longer and got another boat with an even bigger motor this time. It's a 2008 Legend 1860 flat bass with a 2006 Etec 225HO outboard. He did...

I Just installed new bearings, races, and new seals on my boat trailer. Well the outer bearings inside diameter was a tad too small and wouldn't fit the spindle so I re used the old bearing. The old bearing looks brand new so I cleaned it up good and installed it so I could get everything put...
