I recently purchased an old tri hill and was looking at the trailer today in the garage and wondered if I needed to make some adjustments.
I am fairly new to towing boats or anything for the matter so I don't know much about how they are supposed to sit on the trailer.
basically my set up has...
I am doing the interior of my boat at the moment and just dropped off my old sleeper seats to get them rebuilt. I wanted them in a specific 2 tone color with the middle being orange and the sides being white. The orange vinyl was not available through the person thats doing the seats so i told...
I am currently re doing the interior of a new old boat that i just bought. It still has the original old vinyl flooring on it from the 70's in it and as you can imagine it looks pretty rough.
I have the seats getting reupholstered now so I have to start making some decisions on what i want to...
hey guys, just thought i would show off new old project :) lol
It needs a bit of work interior wise, but the boat is ready for the water. I've been looking for something along this line for quite a while now because my 14 foot fiberglass boat is just too small for fishing with my dog and...
Hey guys, been a while since ive posted anything up but im starting to get my boats ready for next season and have a question for you.

hey guys, been a while since I've posted anything.. just thought i would show you the new winter project i just picked up. The boat that i fixed up last winter (thanks to the help i got on here) turned out to be just a little too small for our liking (only 14 feet) so i looked on kijiji for a...
I just thought i would make this thread and thank the people that helped with the many question I asked about my motor. I tried calling around and visiting almost every marine shop in my area and every single on of them told my my motor was too old or that i should even waste my time figuring...
hey guys,
I have been on here the last few weeks asking about some problems i was having with my 1962 johnson 40hp outboard. After getting a lot of good advise here, me and a friend checked everything and adjusted everything this weekend and now its back to running great out on the water. The...
I spent the winter re doing the floor and stringers and carpet in my small 14 foot fiber glass boat..
after taking it out a few times this year, it wasnt long before i realized i wanted a bigger boat lol so i thought i would start hunting on my local classified site (kijiji) to trade mine in...
hey everyone, sorry for all the stupid questions i keep posting. I just put an order in for a few parts for my 1962 johnson 40hp (RDSL-24L).. and before i put the order in i decided to check the motor one more time in case i missed something.. that way i can get everything in one shot. after i...
first off I'm not too sure if i posted this in the right spot.. so sorry in advance if i didnt.
I've had my boat out on the water a few time now and i figured that the speedometer just didnt work. I've been messing around with the motor lately and i kept seeing this tube going from the...
hey guys, I am back once again with some problems I am having with my 1962 johnson 40hp outboard. I posted a few weeks ago and described my problem but didnt really get many responses, so i thought I would film the motor running so you guys could see it and let me know what you think.
It ran...
Hey, I was having some problems with my 1962 40hp johnson and figured I would seek some help on here before i take it to a macanic. I dont know much about outboard motors so you'll to be a bit patient for me.
So when i first put the boat in the water this year it ran a little bit rough and...
Well after all the work i did fixing up my first boat, it came time to license it and get it out on the water. I live in Onatario Canada and I have never done this before, so i contacted the man that i bought it off of to get some advise, and thats when he told me that he never licensed the boat...
I was just looking at my boat in the garage and noticed that when i last put it away i just left the motor tilted down. I am not to sure why i even thought about it but it got me wondering if i should always have the motor up when its not in the water? it just looks like having the motor down...
