Is there a way to thin the stuff when it get thicker?

Thanks, would a spray for battery cable corrosion work or what about baking soda, a little water and a toothbrush clean it off? Any other thoughts.

I noticed the wire insulation and corrosion on these two wires today. I don’t know much about outboard engines and think this is a switch box of some kind from searching boats.net for what this part is. So that’s how little I know. Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem, nether the switch...

Yeah like that, nice catch.

Thanks for the advice, I will do that. Now let’s get out there and catch those crappie.

I have a new Minn Kota Endura 40 lb. thrust hand control for transom mount. I’d like to use it on the bow of a 9ft. Bass Hunter (the plastic boat). I remember reading something about making a change inside the motor so the forward and reverse speed are correct for bow use. Any thoughts on how...

You might check with “2nd chance tackle” on youtube. I watch him often and he seems to have quite a stash of parts reels and has old Mitchell service and repair videos. He is in New England and says to email him with questions.

So is the sale price (final cost) $1,825? That’s something off and you support local business.

Yeah he’s a good pal to have.

It’s a nice day when you can catch them in those conditions.

That prep looks mighty good to me as novice.

Don’t ya love those big ol wrinkle nose hitting a popper 😉..

What a beautiful find and what an event I bet it was a lot of fun. I enjoyed your videos and others

CN, on the drop shot I have not tried that but when I hear it mentioned my thought is that I presume you send it to the bottom and my question is do you drop it right next to the boat or shoreline to keep the line vertical and the bait up off of the bottom? That way or cast it out horizontal and...

I watch a YouTube channel called “second chance reel “ and Dennis show maintenance on many different reels and I &think he had done a Mitchell 408 recently. He alway says that if you have a problem with a reel to contact him. I have a couple Mitchell 300’s from the 60’s.

If it runs good and the trailer is sound enough why not take it out a few times to see what you like and don’t like about her. If you are new to boating the experience of accurately getting ready and getting out there and getting back and putting things away can be a lot different than you...

All turned out fine, I was careful when removing the foot so replaced the water pump kit and carefully put back together without the shifter moving. One thing I did was to use a short ratchet strap to hold the foot in place while lining the waterline, driveshaft and gear shaft up. Of course...

Alright I’ll try that hopefully tomorrow when to parts come in.

How would I check to see if it’s still shifting?
