    Once when I was a young pup...

    I worked as a mason's laborer for a masonry company. I was about 18yrs old. The boss sent 4 of us out to do a small restoration job. So we all piled into the cab of the dump truck. It was cramped and me being the youngest I had to sit in the middle. Now the guy on the far passenger side didn't...

    Fishing in the summer and snowboarding in the winter. I've been a snowboarder for many years and taught snowboarding for the last 5 years. Getting a little long in the tooth to be pulling 360s off the jumps... but I still hold my own on the downhill! Arbor Aframe is my weapon of choice for...

    Gas Line

    On my mod of my 14ft jon I'm planning on putting the gas tank towards the front for weight distribution reasons. Would there be any problems with running the gas line say 8 - 10 ft.?

    Best wire...

    I know this question has probably been asked before. Please forgive me if it has. I did make an honest effort to sift through the last 10 pages of this forum to see if I could find an answer. I'm getting ready to wire my boat for nav light, anch light, bilge...etc. all fairly low amp draws. My...

    Question about StrongTies

    Hi All, I've noticed that alot of the projects done on this site use a combination of StrongTies and 2x2s. I went to my local Home Depot and could not find them. I'll check Lowes tomorrow. I went to the StrongTie website and see that they are made from zinc oxide treated steel. Now my question...

    Hi All, Question: If I put the my starter battery in the front of the boat and run wires to the motor in the back (wire would run about 10 ft. total), would that be too far to run wire for starting the motor? What guage wire should I use?

    Bus Bar

    Hi All, I am rigging my jon with nav lights, onboard lights, and a bilge pump. All of these will be connected to a 20 amp fused switch panel. I will also connect a tm to the same battery but on its own circuit. My question is, would it be ok to make +/- bus bars for the lights and bilge pump...

    1436 SeaNymph

    Hi All, Here's my new project it's a 1448 Jon and trailer that I picked up for $75! It had been for sale in a neighbor's yard for some time with a for sale sign $400. A week went by and the sign was changed to $300... then $200, and it sat and sat. For good reason, it's a pretty ugly boat and...

    Howdy all!

    I'm new to the site and thought I would just post a hello. I must say I've been looking for a site like this for some time now. I just sold my Tracker ProTeam 19 - 120hp Jet, (yes, I am still mourning). I loved that boat but it was a little to big for the rocky shallow waters I usually fish...
