    180 Fisherman Console Grab Rail

    Draglink was interested but the freight was the issue. This handrail wraps around the back of the console where the step is on the side. It has two mounting pads per side plus a rear center post that attaches at the rear of the console. The rear center post can be seen in the picture...

    Near Bout A Problem.

    Lake testing the center console Sat. I was coming into the dock and the motor wouldn't throttle down to idle. It would only go down to about 1200 rpm. Still sounded good but could not pull the throttle back to neutral so I turned back to the side of the lake and killed the ignition. Removed...

    New Years Eve Redfish

    Found them stacked up on one another and what a beautiful day it was at the mouth of the Suwannee River. At the "Honey Hole" it took one cast each and my 75 yr old mom and I had our keeper Redfish. I mean, double hookup, (frozen bait) shrimp tipped jig that weren't even thawed out yet. A 20"...

    Hibernation - Gators Are Officially In

    I feel like Yoda, without the Force. PhatDaddy, damn that was a real old fashioned whoopin the Seminoles put on my Gators. I didn't watch much, too painful. Cleaned fish for most of the game (Sand Trout, Whiting, Croaker, Redfish) Congratulations on a great season. The Seminoles had a better...

    90 HP Yamaha - Ethanol Woes

    What do I need to do? 4-stroke Late Model Raycor Filter plus the factory filters were all muddled up. Fuel line is getting soft. My buddy may have put off the replacement of the fuel lines too long. Now it won't turn full RPM and the idle has gone south. If it was a Merc I would be pulling...

    Handrail For Center Console

    I have a original equipment welded SS handrail for a 1983 20' Steplift Center Console. It is the one that wraps around the back side of the console and goes up over the windscreen. It attaches to the console with two round flanges per side and one center bolt in the back. Deleted it for a T-top...

    Another gem

    I had virtually the same boat with a single 250 and a bracket so I could close in the transom. I miss it on occasion.

    Trailer Bearings

    The spindles are junk. Both sides fried. The carnage. No sign of any bearings only the races left on the hubs. Grabbed the tires on the good axle and there is no preload on the bearings, too loose. On the bright side, the tire/wheel/hub assembly was easy to remove, no tools required...

    Trailer Bearings

    Got to where I was going and discovered one axle on the trailer had thrown off the buddy bearings and spit the bearings out. (both sides) Strange thing was, I had no idea. Pulled just fine, next day moved it from the wash station to the shed and I could hear some grinding with the window down...

    Pad eyes for a bimini top. Where?

    I have some chrome plated zamak pad eyes on one of my boats. Therefore I have some pad eyes that need replacing. Problem is I cannot find the correct size in any material let alone stainless. I need to replace all four and the holes in the boat are 1 1/8" center to center. I have spent the...

    Trailer springs

    Check your bloody trailer springs. If you have a spring type setup and not a set of them fancy torsion jobs. I have had no issues for 10 years with this trailer. Did I say that out loud? I pull the boat out of the barn for a little clean up and notice the tire is on the fender. Broken...

    Thunderbirds x2

    I was lucky enough to see the USAF Thunderbirds this past weekend. If you never had the pleasure, make time and go see them or the Blue Angels. Lakeland, FL became the busiest airport in the nation last week as the Sun-N-Fun Fly In brought hundreds of airplanes to our little town. A lot of...
