Took the jetboat out with my newly made camera deck for it's maiden voyage today. It worked out pretty good. I'm gonna have to work on something to keep the camera from turning from an impact and also need to work on sealing the water out a bit more. I flipped it almost upside down and took on...

Just got back from a week long camping trip and it was pretty sweet. It was crazy windy on the lake for most of the week which meant no jetboat action. It seemed everytime the water was calm and I got the boat ready the wind picked up and brought the big waves. Then finally the day before we...

I'm headin fishing for a week in a few days and it will be the first time using my new trolling motor and fishfinder. I have a Minn Kota Traxxis 45lb with Maximizer and an Eagle Fisheasy 245 DS fishfinder freshly installed in my 12' Lowe. I'm just reading through the manual for the motor and it...

Me and my Dad were looking around at the fishing trade show last weekend. I was looking at this fishfinder cause the price was pretty good but wasn't gonna buy one until I found a trolling motor first. So my Dad bought it for my wifes birthday present even though she was talking right before we...

This is my favorite. A summertime classic. Beer Butt Chicken! (aka: drunken chicken, beer in the butt chicken, beer can chicken...) Yum! I'm no cook so I usually make it up as I go, but here's the basics. Ingredients: -whole chicken -beer can (size of beer can depends on size of chicken used)...

My uncle always used to let me use his boat and motor whenever I went camping at the lake. I've had my own gear for a couple years now but just got to thinking. That motor is a piece-o-crap and needs an attitude adjustment. From what I remember, it starts fairly ok. But the problem that I would...

I need a lower cowl assembly for my 9.9 mercury. Anyone know where to get one? I'll post a pic of my motor too show what part exactly.

Just wondering if there was somewhere to order used parts for my 1989 9.9 Mercury. The lower cowling on my motor has been broken since I bought it. The whole back of the cowling is gone where the latch should be so my hood just sits there and the whole thing vibrates unless I jam some cardboard...

Living 20 mins from Vancouver, I thought I'd share a couple pics from around town during the Olympics. Here's some politician guy carrying the torch through Abbotsford. Takin the water taxi from Granville Island, check out the barricades to keep you out of False Creek near the Athletes...

I've been into rc's for the last 6 years and I love em. The first one I bought was an HPI Savage nitro powered monster truck. Here's a pic after a complete rebuild. This thing was freakin awesome! 45mph and loud as hell! I sold it last year cause I got sick of messing around with the carb...

I'm gonna be getting a trolling motor for my 12' Lowe, just wondering what size to get. Here's my boat. I've been looking at the Minn Kota Traxxis. How much thrust should I go for? I was thinking the 33 or 45. We are usually fully loaded in the boat with me, wife, dog, fishing gear and cooler...
