I am looking at getting a 10 to 12 amp dual bank. Looking at Minn Kota, Promariner and Guest. The Promariner seems to have a bad rep for failure. Any input or personal experience on any of these? I like the Distribute on Demand feature of the Promariner but I don't want a piece or crap either...
What is the difference between 12v and 24v? I know what a volt is but are they interchangeable? I want to replace my old Evinrude but am a bit confused on this part.
Thanks - sorry if its a stupid ?
I have found some pretty good deals on the net for props. Are certain companies know for better props? I am looking an aluminum prop and how do I know if it's through hub exhaust, what does counter rotation mean and what is this hub assembly they are trying to sell me with the prop?
I have a 16' 94 Sea Nymph with 1994 25 HP Evinrude. I just bought this boat and have not even had it in the water yet (I know who I bought it from and have it run with with the water muffs).
I am redoing a few things and noticed the prop has a some wear and a small tear/ding in one of the...
I am recarpeting my boat (16' sea nymph). I am comfortable with the project but I am not comfortable with the type of carpet to select. I have been shopping around and found 2 types I like. 1. HomeDepot has a 24oz rubber backing Shaw brand for $1.05/Sq Ft. The other is from a carpet store and...
I want to recarpet my 16' sea nymph - I see people don't think carpet belongs in smaller boats but I like and it looks nice. There is one spot that seems a little soft so I may be adding new wood. If that is the case 1/2" treated seems to be the choice and I keep seeing people saying to glass...
buying a a boat and the prop is a little banged up. One of the blades has a small tear in in the edge and is flapped up a little and the edges are pretty nicked up. I was going to replace it any ways but I am curious as to when you should replace the typical prop - ie. does it need to be...
I am about to pick up my 16' Sea Nymph and I want to replace the carpet. I am pretty hand but could use some pointers if you have them. The carpet is in pretty good shape but it's 14 years old and blue. I saw rolls on ebay for $225 for a 25' x 8' roll? Is this a good price or should I stick with...
Found a 1994 16' Sea Nymph with a 25 Evin that I want to buy for a fishing rig. I noticed when I was looking at it - it's only rated for 4 person/600lb. We typically go with three of us and we are over 600 total with no gear and like a 1000 geared out with anchors, seats and stuff. Are these...
Is it possible to add a new seat? The boat I am looking at has two actual captain style seats and a good spot for a third but there is nothing there. The previous owner would use this space for a cooler and set on an extra life vest if they had a third guy? Can I just pick up a new seat and...
This might be a silly question but I am new so...
Can I run an onboard charging system with a 25hp outboard? The boat I am looking at has two batteries and I have heard of boats that have charging systems on board. Is it possible to do this? I know cars and how their charging systems work but...
I got into fishing a couple years ago and am now buying a boat because rental rates and hours suck! I have an opportunity to purchase a boat from a friends dad. Nice, old retired guy, takes good care of his stuff but I know nothing about boats so does this sound like a decent deal. I tired to...
