I'm looking for a more reasonably priced alternative to vinyl rub rail. Considering MDF cut 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" then run through my shaper to look like the drawing below. Paint it whatever color you want.

Question on a Minn Kota Maxxum 24v. 74# thrust. It turns way too easy. I tried tightening it up using the adjustment screw on the foot pedal, it's tightened up all the way and it still whips from left to right and vice versa way too easily. Not sure if the cables are stretched or what...

Re-skinning transom. What is the best sealant for unprimed aluminum (UPA) below the waterline? Have read that 5200 attacks UPA. Was strongly considering butyl tape. Seems like a decent choice, convenient to use, not so messy, stays flexible, etc.

Question: does ALL of the old paint need to be removed before applying Gluvit? Replacing transom on a mid-80's Grumman.

Anyone ever build a rear casting platform that converts into a flip up seat? Considering something like this for the back of my deep vee Grumman. See sketches.

Trying to locate HID# on a (I think) 1958 LoneStar Little Fisherman. Anyone know the location of the stamped number? Its not on the manufacturers tag.

Saved 2 tinnies from the scrap man. One is a 12' Lone Star. Tag on seat says "Little Fisherman," not sure if that is the model? The pics are the Lone Star. The other one has current registration which says the boat is a...."1955 Viohol," anyone ever hear of that name? I'll have to get some...

Considering making a battery compartment in one of my side seats that is filled with foam. I've always heard guys say, "don't cut the foam out of your seats, that's for flotation!" My question is, doesn't that only come into play if your boat is capsized? In that case, I'm thinking I'd have a...

Any reports on BLNY? Headed up there soon for a week, wondered if anyone had any success there so far this spring?
