    Propeller question

    Good info here on Yamaha hubs. If you are in the area Admiral Propeller does excellent work. https://acbprop.com/yamahub-htm/ Are you pulling 5500 when wide open with that prop? Just wondering why you are considering changing.

    Favorite Trailering Destination:

    http://www.pinellascounty.org/park/sutherland_bayou_boat_ramp.htm Less than 5 minutes from my house. I love the convenience but not a fan of the ramp. Poor design doesn't allow me to step off the boat onto a dock so I have to climb over the bow rail. Need to get one of those trailer ladders .

    Not positive but looks like the Ram 2000 mount I had on a kayak a while back.

    Yamaha gauge refurbished?

    Fire93Medic based on your experience I went ahead and ordered a sheet of polarization film in order to attempt this repair. Thanks for posting this, I've been thinking of sending my gauges off but I had heard of guys doing it on their own and this video gave me the confidence to do it myself...

    Looks Like I'm the Newest Member to the Club-Transom Restoration Begins

    Looks terminal. Surprised the installer didn't notice anything. The rust stains in the third picture look old to me. From what I've seen here anytime someone repowers the bang strip should come off and a thorough inspection should occur. Good luck!

    Not my day, lower unit

    The backing part had to be noisy. I drug one once across a concrete sidewalk. Scccccccccccccccccc... Ugh. Is why I like my current setup. Skeg is a good 6" above the drive when the trailer is hooked up.

    Transom Mount Crack

    If it ends up being dry remove the nuts and either buy or fabricate transom backing plates. And it wouldn't hurt to seal the existing cracks while you're in there. it might end up being superficial.

    Getting the most for the least on my new, old Grady...

    I bought a 208 last year. I took it out once into the Gom and that night when I got home I washed it then went online and ordered Bennett trim tabs. That hull requires them imo. It leans a ton in a cross wind and I found the same thing, you can't get the bow down without scrubbing a bunch of...

    Need help locating these hinges

    Gotta be plastic? I check the gemlux sale page periodically and they have a bunch of hinges on sale right now. They give great measurements so you may be able to find two that fit. https://www.gemlux.com/shop/sale These perhaps? https://www.gemlux.com/1219

    Does this seem like a good deal

    It looks like it cannot free fall https://www.anchorliftdirect.com/product/barracuda-900-windlass-b912/ I had a windlass on my last boat that I had to power down. If you are using it to bottom fish you may find that it takes too long to get down and you end up drifting off the spot. I ended up...

    Wildfire Destruction

    Sorry for your loss. I lost my house in the Northridge quake in 94. I would much rather go through that then what you and yours have experienced. I moved to Florida too. Hated leaving Cali but it is so much safer here on the gulf coast. I agree on the shrink wrap. Good luck!

    Spinners

    Edson power knob. I got my current one off eBay for 65 bucks. Years ago I bought one of the 20 dollar cheapies and the difference is worth the money. Get the edson

    AGM Batteries

    mjwilly in case you never noticed I know that the Garmin and Furuno displays I've had let you see what the battery voltage is. I glance at that number a couple times a day while running. Don't know what you have on your dash but battery voltage is likely in the menu. Just a thought.

    Sarasota bound!!

    Good timing. American red snapper are open during your stay. All my spots West of Anclote are loaded with them right now. Look for live bottom and ledges in 60' or deeper. Lots of tactics, probably as many as there are fisherman. I like a lively 4" pinfish on a 7/0 circle tied to a 5' 60lb...

    How long do you expect it to take to do the job and are you going from the inside or out? Thanks.
