    Carpet and Plywood

    I am in the process of building a second console to install a full walkthrough windshield on an aluminum fishing boat. The boat is never left without a cover or put away wet. Reading here I am under the impression that I have to cover the ply in resin to seal it before carpeting. Any way I...

    Motor Strong Enough?

    This isn't a wakeboard question, its a tube question. I recently purchased a 3 person V shaped tube that you sit in. My question is my boat strong enough to pull it? Its a 90hp 2 stroke engine on a 17 foot aluminum fishing boat. Let me know before I take it back to the store. Thanks.

    One Bank, two Batteries

    I have two batteries in the boat, one cranking and one for the trolling motor. I just bought a one bank unit for the trolling motor. Without going out and buying a 2 bank unit, can I wire the charger to a switch that is wired to each battery, and chose which one gets the charge? It is a 6...

    Jensen Marine Audio, Good or Bad?

    I'm looking at the Jensen MSR2007 which is basically a head unit that will hook up to an IPOD, radio or Sat radio. http://www.asaelectronics.com/detail.html?catid=&pid=207 Can't find any reviews on this model anywhere or any other Jensen marine items. I was always under the impression that...

    Can I change hubs to change bolt pattern?

    Currently have what I can see is a 2000 lb axel with a 4 bolt hub. Tires are 5.30 x 12". I want to upgrade the tires to a 13" radial, but it is a 5 bolt rim. Can I just change the hubs to a 5 bolt, or do I have to get a new complete axel? If I could change it, does anyone see any issues with...
