    Winter covering

    For those in northen climates how do you cover your toon for the winter? I've shrinkwrapped mine in the past (DIY) but that is expensive with the material running about $100-$150. I tried tarping it with a quality tarp last year but the above average snow (in WI) collapsed pockets of it, which...

    River rats I need your help picking a boat

    Hi all, Still trying to figure out my best boat option (without breaking the bank). I moved to WI and have a small place on a small river here. I've been a lake guy all my life so have been trying to figure out my best option for using the river. Was hoping some of you more experienced river...

    1448 Pods and Jack Plate?

    Hey all, I have an older Alumacraft 1448 Jon (MV) that I'm putting pods on to hopefully float a little shallower. My river can get pretty shallow in the summer. Right now, we are about as low as it gets and if I were to take it out my short shaft Evinrude 9.9 would hit the skeg in some spots...

    Alumacraft MV1470LW

    Wondering if anyone has one of these. A friend of a friend has a 1985 he was thinking of selling only he's out of town so I can't see it for a week and meanwhile I have a different boat I'm interested in. Not sure if I should hold off until he is back or not. I can't find any pics on line...

    Any tips for lifting a 10hp?

    Hey all, new to the site but I love it so far. I'm wondering if anyone has any tricks or tips for an easier way of taking small motors on and off the boat when it's in the water. I have a Evinrude 9.9 on a 14ft. Because of my setup I need to take it off to get the hull up the bank and on shore...
