    Trouble shoot livewell aerator pump

    Maiden voyage today. Only thing that isn’t working is the aerator pump on the transom. It turns on and spins the impeller but doesn’t push water to the livewell. There are no kinks, brand new line and pump. I have another pump just like it that works fine, it’s on the livewell for recirculating...

    I’m considering putting the livewell drain in the side of the boat below waterline about 4” above the bottom of the boat. My concern is the possibility of hitting a stump or rock and having it crack or break. The reason for having it 6’ from the transom on the side of the boat is just to not...

    Polar Kraft 1448 build

    Been searching for a small fishing boat. I couldn’t find one I liked so I’m just going to build my own. Got a good Craigslist deal Jon boat. A 2012 Polar Kraft 1448L. I assumed it was a 36” or smaller bottom, ended up being 48” and since it didn’t have a trailer, was tough to fit in my 6’...
