    rod pocket replacement

    Destroyer, I still have them. But unfortunately when I removed them I literally threw them out of the boat and they broke up pretty good. If you want them they are yours for free. I also have the teak trim that you can have too. I suppose they are still better than nothing. Let me know if you...

    rod pocket replacement

    I had repaired mine when I first put the boat together. But over the years they continued to fall apart. Every time I removed them to access wiring it would crack more or a piece would fall off. Not any more.

    rod pocket replacement

    My rod pockets have seen better days. I have been looking for a replacement for a while. A place in Florida had some nice ones but the shipping was just as much as the product. So I kept an eye on Craigslist. And I scored a nice set only one town away. Only a little short. No big deal. I'll just...

    Trim Tab suggestions/experience

    I put a set of Bennett tabs and they make a huge difference. Not only to keep the bow from pounding. But also to level off the boat in a cross wind. I would only use Bennet tabs. I replace lots of bad Lenco actuators at work. I think the little extra time you may spend installing the Bennett...

    Snowstorm headed this way !!

    My boat was in my heated shop till last Monday when I had to take it out to work on another boat. I have the floor all opened up so it can't get wet right now. I'll probably put it in our storage warehouse at work. Looks like it could be a serious storm. Lots of flooding too. There's not much...

    Needs for the new to me boat

    I have a Garmin 182? I think. It's a little older black and white. But it works fine. It's yours if you want it. I also have a few stereos if you want one.

    Makes me glad I don't have a YAMAHA.

    The words Yamaha and corrosion go hand and hand. The Japanese must use some poor quality aluminum. Recycled beer cans or something. I have replaced dozens of those f225 midsections. It's such a problem Yamaha made a "kit" with all the necessary parts to do the job. I'm with you Vic. My Opti has...

    Recon for NJ Stripers Sunday, 12/13

    Yeah it's been a remarkable season. Both the fish and the weather cooperated nicely. I'm done too. Pulling the boat this week. I've got a long list of stuff I want to do before we head down to Charleston.

    Recon for NJ Stripers Sunday, 12/13

    I went out today. I went south down to Seaside/Island Beach areas. No birds but I did manage to find small schools of large bunker. I ended up getting a nice 36" bass off Lavallette in about 25' of water live lining a bunker. Couldn't beat the weather. Made 40 kts back to Manasquan.

    SUNDAY.... Dec 7 Who's looking ?

    I went out Saturday morning with my son. We left the dock at 6am and headed south from Squan inlet. Found birds and bait off Lavallette. Pulled a few short bass then decided to go further south. Ended up off Island Beach with about 300 other boats. Birds all over bait being chased up all over by...
