I have a 2001 f50 on a 24’ Weeres. Recently i was out and ran into bad weather. Had some stuff fly off the boat and moved the throttle from about half speed to reverse rather quickly. I did pause for about 3 seconds in neutral before going to reverse. About 3 minutes later i could feel a little...
I would be going about 100 yards. But once every year or two i would need to probably take it into the city which is an hour and a half on the highway.
I’m currently looking for a trailer for my 24’ pontoon. I’ve come across a 22’ long scissor lift trailer. Would this be ok? I know for a bunk trailer it should be close to the same size or slightly bigger. But could i get away with this size scissor lift trailer?
I have a 24’ Weres pontoon with a 50 yamaha. I finally found a used Bear trailer but it only fits up to 22’ pontoons. It’s tandem axel and able to carry 4340 lbs. Anyone have any experience or insight if this would work?

kcassells I was able to salvage a small piece of the old stringer that wasn’t worm food yet and traced it onto my new piece of plywood

I’m rebuilding my 1974 Starcraft american 15 and was planning on laminating all 3 stringers then wrapping them in cloth. I was curious if it would be better to build the stringers and then just drop it inside the hull? Or put each length of wood in piece by piece? I have heard that I should put...
