I would buy a Garmin with a proper mapping setup that can be refreshed online. Tidal currents tend to change channels and their depth. The boss will not be happy if you show up late without fish and up to your neck covered with muck
That could have caused some serious damage on the road. Imagine that one wheel deciding to go off by itself.
Yes, I do inspect the trailer yearly for nasty stuff like that.
In NY every trailer has to be inspected yearly, but I doubt that this sort of thing would have been picked up on. The...
Sylvan is Starcraft in all but name. It is made in the same factory by the same people. When the founder of starcraft passed , the company was divided among the kids. The daughter's share continued under the name Sylvan, There are some very minor differences.
We do repairs and improvements for sure, It is just that aluminum in fresh water is very sturdy, besides, what's not to love?
I would also like to add the Penn Yan rigs that seem to last forever on the great lakes. I fish from a 1989 28 footer and we have had offers to buy this rig for far more...

The ringing would only be an issue if you glue the transducer down onto the aluminum. the way to go is to drill a hole through the aluminum and install the transducer that way. Airmar sells them with this installation in mind.
( I wrote it this way because I always get mixed up between "through...
I have installed several airmar transducers right through the hull of Starcraft Islanders . All you really have to do is drill a hole the size of the transducer and install it.
Now because it is aluminum and because you don't want corrosion you will have to get a transducer with a plastic body...
I cannot help you very much with the spark plugs, but it is easy to extend your curse word vocabulary. Just walk over to your friendly Russian neighbor and ask him. There are a great and juicy number of Russian curses that are just asking to be muttered under one's breath. I could mention a few...
You should certainly go over the carburetor and make sure that all the hoses are in good condition. You may have chanced on pre 2000 rubber which is not ethanol resistant and may have partially rotted out. and all the nuts and bolts should be properly fastened. As for the black stuff dripping...
