sounds outrageous to me.like hiway robbery to be truthfull. a piece of foamboard, one layer of biax and one layer of chopstrand... fair it and paint it. couple hundred bucks and a days labor and you can have something nice if youre handy. i couldnt see letting a shop make a grand profit for that...

you sure about not needing the life vest on when anchored? here its all people 12 years and under must have a vest on at all times on all vessels under 26'. unless i reading it wrong. i woulda thought cg regs were federal and wouldnt vary state to state. my boy is 10 and swims like a fish...

is fluke just a yankee term for flounder, or are they different?

really just run the motor like that for the summer, lol. but im worried i might damage the transom. kinda worried i might not have enough cap left if i cut away the clearance needed. dont have any aluminum to put a spacer between the motor and the transon to level it out, or money to buy some. i...

gonna have to pull the merc back off and take a grinder to that aluminum cap. holds the motor too hi for me to use the top bolt and wont let it set flat against the transom if i use the second bolt. i do plan to remove the cap and glass it in but first i plan to fish. if i like the boat and...
