Re: Bracket update
The setup is great running. It's when you either come off plane or when you're drifting in a stern sea with the motor down, or even sitting at anchor with the motor down and a wake comes from the...

Re: What year for scuppers?
For what it's worth, my boat stays in a slip and I have no scuppers. I do have a cockpit cover that keeps rain out and an auto bilge switch. Boats without self bailing/self sinking cockpits have been...

Re: WTB V20 Steplift
BR, you can have it for free. The problem for you will be getting it. I don't know that you'd want to ship it (or that I'd want to ship it to you). It's big, heavy and it doesn't fold *;D. The bench...

Re: I'm think I'm throwing in the towel
Jeff, is it possible to maybe farm out the most time consuming stuff you need done to your hull? You're going to have to fork out dough to buy a new(er) hull but you won't know what new troubles you...

Re: Surprise Weakfish !!
I hear you on the Blues, it does feel good to be able to leave or pass a spot filled with fish and not feel like you're missing anything. We are blessed.
