Probably going to be a big no but has anyone added seats and stuff WITHOUT drilling holes in the benches? There are Zero holes in my boat and if I can I would like to keep it that way...

Curious as to what people are using for DIY livewells other than coolers? I want to add one to my middle bench and use the top of it as the lid.

2 different questions here that I need some help or ideas with. 1. Transducer mounting: I've read where some of you have used 3M 5200 to glue a piece of PVC to the boat. My concern is it coming off in movement and is there any preparation that needs to be done to the boat or the PVC before it's...

I've searched here and found a few posts on using the small sealed batteries for fish finders. My question is, using a 12v 7ah battery, how long will it run one without having to charge it? I do alot of catfishing and I am usually on the water for up to 5 hours, I'll be using it the whole time...

I have an 80 model evinrude 25hp frame with a 78-79 power head. I'm wondering how to hook up a kill switch on it if anyone knows or can point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it. Need more info, just ask. Thanks

Any posts here that detail how to wrap carpet on the wood in the floor to match the ribs?

Tilt trailer. I installed a new harness and lights on the trailer a couple of days ago and I was having trouble getting them to work. Figured out it was a harness problem so I hard wired the harness to the truck. Added a ground to the tilting portion of the trailer just to be safe. Now, I have...

I've noticed that on almost all V Bottom boat transoms there is a piece of wood Outside on the back. Is that really necessary? Also, what thickness should I be going for on a transom? I was told 1 1/2" but want to make sure.

So...I need to rebuild my fuel pump. Took it apart to clean it and lost the first gasket (The one with the large round hole) and now it shoots gas. I have found A LOT of kits that look like they would work but all of the gaskets/diaphragms look different than what is in mine. Can someone point...

After a test run on my motor a few weeks ago, my son said it was surging. I replaced the plugs and we tried it again yesterday. It ran smoother than before but still wants to surge and it doesn't want to idle. I pulled the fuel pump off and cleaned it (Hoping I got it back together right) and...

Could some one with a boat similar to mine post some pics of their Transom so I can see what I need to do on mine? I'm pretty sure the one that came out of it is wrong (The inside): This whole back end had a piece of plywood on it from one end to the other and you can see how far down it was...

I was told that the QL77JC4 plugs are best for my engine. I checked around and found that the JC4's are what it calls for. Are these the same? No one around here has just a JC4 plug.

Anyone have any tips on replacing the pull rope recoil spring on a 1969 Evinrude 25HP? I would like to do it myself and I've heard it's a job...

I bought this boat, motor & trailer for $600 last week. Motor started on first crank. My plan is to add a couple of decks and a floor as time/work allows. I can't seem to find anything on the motor other than a Manual serial number to find out exactly what year it is so maybe someone here can...

Been awhile since I posted here or even been on here... I do have a question tho. I'm thinking about Trading for this boat: Guy is asking $800 without a motor. 16ft x 56". I'm sure this is across the beam tho. He says its 4ft in the floor. I have yet to see it tho and still waiting on him...

Just wondering what would be best, 2 bunks or 4? Lay them flat or stand on edge? Does it really matter? I'm building a 16x48 Eldocraft. I'll get some pics up later.

Anyone know how to adjust one of these? It's not the electrical type, there are two cables coming out of it. I would like to be able to adjust it so that when the foot pedal is flat it will move straight. Also, how would I determine the thrust on it? The only numbers I have found on it are...

What do you suggest to attach seats with? I plan to attach two seats on swivels and a pedestal base between them. These will be going through plywood and the aluminum bench.

I found a boat like mine (Only a 17 footer) and I was looking at how they have it set up. Although theirs has the steering console, mine does not (removed to make more room). My question is, in the pics (The top is theirs, the bottom, mine), how would you set this up? Would you just use the wood...
