Thanks guys; That's what I'll do. 8)

I am about to receive a new to me 8 hp Yamaha 4 stroke motor. I have a 6 gal. gas tank that was use with a 2 cycle motor (recently). It has about a quart of gas left in it, but I'm unsure how long it was used in that capacity. My question is can I empty the old gas out and just use it. ( I would...

What a relief I was thinking these:

I really don't know what the guy means " light tackle for small fish" I go out with 10 lb test looking for 20 lb snook! Anyway, if your not dead set on a bait caster and your not using really light gear than I have a real for you. have been using the same Diawa SS 1600 for over 25 years...

You bet! Love the ICW! Lived in Cocoa for a year about 300" from the river and around the corner from the ramp. Lived in Fort Pierce for 15 years and fished it just about every day> I still got to Fort Pierce and stay on the inlet and fish down there. Like Sebastian Inlet and Fort Pierce over...

Very nice! =D>

I really like the boat. You have a great canvas to do pretty much as much or as little as you want. I think a lot of guys are going to tell you to get a bigger motor, But really that all in what your doing with the boat and were your using it. As far as rivets go ( keep in mind this is just a...

I like the shine! and the boat came out pretty clean too. :)

No clue if it would blind you or not, sounds like it may be a bit bright. I painted the inside of mine rustolium battleship grey, but it was a rustoleum cream color before that.....Personally I am partial to florescent purple with lime green triangles!

End up with 8hp 4 stroke Yammy

The man at the tournament was correct Yamaha is the best offered these days. Never had a problem with the couple I have owned. Just my humble opinion.

Congrats =D> and I hope you have years of trouble free boating in front of you. I know how exciting a new motor is because I just bought one today ( new to me ). I had been looking at the Tahatsu 6hp and the 9.8 electric start with money really being the strongest factor in concideration. :-k...

No, you just need to be good at back stroke padeling!

First, if your only looking to spend 60 to 80 dollars the you need to keep an I on Craigslist, because even the cheapest deep cycle marine from WallyWorld will cost you a hundred bucks. Second, If your looking for battery life and run time you (IMHO) go with a series 31 AGM. They are not cheap...

Right or wrong I used it on the inside and outside of my boat then painted over it.

thanks, plan is for a new 6hp Tahatsu: DI can pay cash for it. Would love to have a 9.8 electric start, but that would go on a credit card and I just git them payed off.

Great job; Is that a 2 or 4 stroke motor?

I have a 30 year old Diawa 1600 SS Tournament real on a Walker Lite 12-17lb class rod. Has been my Snook reel for years, outlasted a few rods. New Diawas I can not vauch for!

One winter when I was living in North Carolina I went out the back door and slipped on the ice and did a split down 3 steps; spilled coffee all over my scrub top ( I'm an RN) so I went back inside changed tops and drove to work. There was a chilly breeze that night that seemed to linger even...

I use to fish the Indian River ( Intracoastal Waterway) with my wife in a 12" flat bottom Jon, 7.5hp 2 cycle Sears Gamefisher motor gear and cooler. Never once felt unsafe, tippy, or that it was overloaded. At that time I was going a lean mean 200lbs and my wife was a slim 140. ( I use to be...
