    Are these off-brand trolling motors any good?

    Lots of good points made, I went with a minnkota as my primary motor but for a backup to hang on the rear of the boat and possibly or hopefully never gets used I have no problem with saving a few bucks on the knockoff especially being it's a watersnake which seem to get the best ratings of the...

    Are these off-brand trolling motors any good?

    came across an ozark trail which is actually a watersnake 44lb thrust motor at my local walmart on clearance for 100 bucks so grabbed it as a back up to my minnkota, ran it over the weekend for several hours and so far I'm impressed with it for the price.

    Preferred mounting arrangement for 2 seats in a 1236 Jon

    my battery is mounted in the right rear corner so the rear seat is on the left side, the front seat is mounted slightly offset to the right side,there is usually 2 of us on the boat so this equals out the weight pretty good.

    Front deck on aluminum jon host enough to fry eggs on.

    Title question

    The dealer that sold me the boat said the same thing that they never heard of a salvage title. Yeah that is what happened the prior owner had an ins.claim but nobody can say what for and there are no signs of any repairs being made to the boat,the whole situation is odd and the fish and boat...

    Title question

    Bought my 94 crestliner about 1-1/2 ago from a dealer here in Pa. eventually got titles in the mail for boat and trailer which I locked in a safe and never looked over.This week I sell the boat to a gentlemen from MD. I gave him the titles to look at while standing in my driveway before going to...

    product to fix gouges in aluminum skiff...

    in my world, I would try to work it out with metal working / tinsmith tools. s-l-o-w-l-y working the metal, pinging it back into the original shape and see how it looks. May be slow going, but you could get most of the metal back to where it belongs. yes indeed and if you can get it looking...
