Well I picked up my multi-purpose Erie/Catfish/Bass boat last week and took it out yesterday for a trial run. It is a Sea Nymph "fishing Machine" 16.5 footer with 10 rod holders, Gps fishfinder, bow mounted remote control trolling motor, a stainless steel trailer and a 40hp Yammy 2 stroke on the...

Hey guys like I posted a few days ago I bought a new (to me) tin. Its a 16.5 foot Sea Nymph "Fishing Machine". My question is this; Im going to steel flex the bottom, but the boat is WAY too heavy to flip (800 pounds). If I hang the boat in my garage, would it be possible to use the paint...

First off let me say im electriclly challenged. I bought a new (to me) tinny yesterday with a remote control 50 pound thrust trolling motor. It also has the foot controls. I hooked it up to a fresh battery, and the direction works (right and left), when I try to run it (spin the prop) it just...

Im 95% sure Im going to buy this 79 Sea Nymph "fishing Machine" 16.5 footer tomorrow. The list of goodies included is long and the price is right. My question is this; the boat is sitting on a high dollar custom all STAINLESS Duel axle trailer. Would you keep it even though it is extreme...

A buddy of mine just picked up a 11 foot v botttom for free, We filled it with water and it has 7 rivets leaking. This is the thinnest material I have ever seen on a boat I didnt have calipers or mics, but I would guess under .020 thick. What would you recomend to seal those few rivets without...

Hi new to the forum but, I thought I would share a mod I have found very handy on my crawdad. I had a real hard time finding a suitable rod holder/mounting location for some heavy duty rod holders. Here is what I came up with. All materials are 1/2". These are heavy enough to tie the anchor to...

Guys Im Josh from Elyria Ohio, I love the work you all have done to your rigs! I currently own a 12' Crawdad on a Ez-loader trailer, with a 5hp Briggs outboard and a MK 30 pound troller, with custom rod holders I made. I cant wait to use some of your ideas and add them to my boat. Love the site...
