The Wife and I moved into our new house about 5 months ago on Lake Robinson, SC. It's been a dream of ours to live on the lake and we are very grateful to be here, but this house and yard needs a lot of work and has been huge undertaking so far. A couple years back I did a full restoration to my...

I was watching a youtube video and saw this cool clamp that held the seat pedestal when not in use. I need something like this for my boat. Have you guys ever seen this online or do you think its home made?

I'm in the process of completing my jon boat restoration and I'm trying to get my battery setup worked out. I have one group 29 battery and its dimensions are 13" x 7" x 10" (W x D x H) and its heavy. I originally assumed I would put the battery in the back with gas tank, however after taking...

I have an 1982 Evinrude 7.5 HP that I'm trying to get running (Model E8RCNR), but I can't get the fuel hose I purchased to work. I purchased what I thought was the correct fuel hose (Model # 5008609) and even purchased the OMC version that was like $60, but it doesn't fit the motor or the tank...

I've been working on a boat my Grandpa left me for the last year or so. It's an old Terry 1969 1436 that has a lot of family history. The decks that I've built were never intended to stand on, however they are plenty strong enough to do so. I assumed the boat would be too tippy to stand on the...

I found a 2003 9.9 4 Stroke Mercury (bottom pic) on Craigslist and I need help knowing if this is a good deal. He's asking $950 and I offered $600 for it. I'm guessing we would end up some where in the middle, but he may not even respond with such a low ball offer. How much do you think this...

I was given a 1436 Jon boat and trailer when my grandpa passed away. I'm in the process of restoring the trailer and ran into some trouble. When I removed the hubs there was this metal collar spacer (its the gold spacer in the pic below) that had been put on the spindle and slid all the way...

I'm trying to source new leaf spring bushings for an old 1978 jon boat trailer and I'm having a hard time finding them. They are a two piece bushing (One on each side of the leaf spring eye) that has an outer flange on them. The outer flange thickness is 1/4", the O.D. is 7/8" and I.D. is 1/2"...
