I was thinking about using some decking boards. I have a lot of extras left over of the 5/4 decking boards from my deck build on my house over the summer. I know your not suppose to use treated lumber, but is there a layer of something i could put between the wood and the alum to keep it from...

Is that the red tinted stuff? Kind of like a tounge and groove edges? I think i my have looked at this stuff, but not sure.

Thanks a ton man! Those are perfect!! Thanks again!

also, cou you get me a picture of the center support and how it was made. The part in the middle of the trailer that supports the bottom of the boat, not the bunks, but the piece running side to side. My bow stop is fine, its just the center support thats missing. Thanks.

Exactly what i was looking for! Thanks! Just wanted to see some pics of all those LED's lit up at night! LOL From the front and from the back.

Did you have to thin the parkers paint to spay it? If so, what did you use and how much? Thanks!!

Do you have pics of the way you attached the bunks and the front support for the bottom of the boat to the 2x4's? Also maybe a pic or two of that bad boy lit up at night!! Nice trailer man!!

I noticed in one of your pics that it looked like you grounded some wires to your hull. I was always told not to do that? Is there a reason why you did, and why are you NOT suppose to? Not really sure, i just was always told to run the grounds back to the battery or a buss bar. I know this isnt...

Did you have the thin the Parkers paint to spray it? If so, how much? I Too will be using the parkers paint here soon and was thining about spraying it. Do you get better coverage by spraying or rolling? How many coats do you think your going to need with spraying? Looksa AWSOME by the way...

Looking to get a starter and starter bracket for my 1973 Johnson 25HP. I'm looking to convert it from pull start to electric and have everything else i need but the starter and mounting bracket. Any info would be GREATLY appreciated. If you know where i could find them, please let me know...

I bought a 70's model Johnson 25 HP. I got it with a short shaft and long shaft parts, but neither were on. The previous owen had removed the lower unit to replace the water pump, but never did finish it. The water pump is all out and i have the brand new parts. My only problem is, i didnt take...

I'll have to relocate the fender hangers, but yes, i can make it work.

Is it just as simple as putting the axel on the top of the leaf springs? Right now, its on the bottom, and i'm looking to lower it. It was made for 8" wheels, and i put 13" on it to save the wear and tear on the bearings. I do a lot of traveling with it, so i wanted to larger diameter tires...

I'm looking at putting down alum sheeting for the floor in my boat. I've got the foam cut and level with the ribs on the bottom. So the floor will set flush on the ribs and foam. How thick of sheet metal should i go with? It will be well supported by the foam and ribs, but i'm not sure how think...

Deffinitly keeping an eye on this one! I've got a 1470 Grumman that i'm currently working on. I've got some pictures and getting them setup and going to be starting a thread on it here soon. I'll keep a close eye on this one as well, as my intended use is for a duck boat as well. Great job so...

Also keep in mind the regular black fuel line doesnt take well to over exsposure to sunlight in my exsperience. The first boat i bought had regular black automotive fuel line on it, and every time you touched it, your hands would be black! It was like the hose was deteriarating(sp?)

I just got a new to me boat and trailer. The trailer is galvanised and i was thinking about painting it. Would there be any downfalls in painting it? I'm just not a big fan of the look of the galvanised trailers. It looks dingy and dirty all the time. i've tried to power wash it, but its just...

How did you attach it? Thanks.

I just recently picked up a new to me 1470 Grumman Mod V. There is no support under the front part of the boat. There is only a roller up there, but as wide as the boat is, i dont think its enough. Its actually kind of dented the bottom of the boat. I saw a couple pictures on here, but was just...

With moving the boat back some, make sure it isnt too much. You want the bunks to support all the way to the transom, if not past it. Having your bunks stick out past the transom is good. Your hull can get a hook in it if not. Just be careful, and make sure your transom is supported on the...
