    Easy & SIMPLE $24 ‘Flip Flop’ Floor for a Tinny!

    Note there is no sub-floor in this boat, just the exposed ribs, that makes it hard to walk around. Rather than add any heavy flooring material, I just used 4 of these ‘flip flop’ material outdoor mats & zip-tied 2 together. They run $7 to $12 wherever you can find them at outdoor/seasonal...

    SIMPLE skiff ‘floor options’

    FYI, info posted in response to a question from IronHorse2022 … To your question about “simple” flooring when one doesn’t have a plywood or other material ‘flat surface’ subfloor. You are correct, vinyl will not work and would tear if it is not on level floor. This is what I did in my small...

    Just how good are Johnson brand pumps?

    Now I don't have years of pro boating industry experience, but I sure have wired and/or maintained dozens and dozens to X 2-5 that of the many boats in my boating career. And I help maintain a small fleet of skiffs at my boat club (all in the water 24/7) so I'd bet a good percentage of that work...

    Boy oh boy, SeaDek gets dirty!

    Friend’s boat … he went to power wash the new SeaDek foam flooring he had put in last Spring. I guess that stuff really HOLDS the dirt, huh? Look at the 'before' and 'after' on the panel he was cleaning when he sent me this picture. That’s only 1 season of exposed use on it, on a boat down...

None are available from the ASAT manufacture, nor from eBay or wherever. So I bought a plain khaki Boonie Hat from eBay, only...

    Gatling Gun - Another one off the bucket list

    Here's something that was WAY cool! Albeit I didn't have enough ammo ... a 10-barreled 45-70 cartridge Colt Gattling Gun. Most interestingly, it was designed by a Doctor, who wanted it to be soooooooo deadly and terrifying as a 'weapon', that it would end all conflicts and wars. Well, how did...
