    suggestions for ladder for 2001 crestliner super fishhawk 1600

    Can't tell you a brand, there are so many from generics, to high end brands, to cheap chinesium. Just make sure you can configure it to your mounting space. Here is mine on my Starcraft. A bit of unconventional mounting, but it works and swings down without hitting the transducer. Make sure...

    Hard to steer, can i oil or grease unit

    I/o or outboard? Rotary or rack? Power steering? You can certainly grease a rotary or rack system for an outboard. Can't do anything with the cable. If its binding, its time to replace it. I/o and power steering systems can be a bit more involved.

    1990s spectrum restoration and tiller conversion

    Use the best plywood you can get. Glue and screw the 2 layers together to help keep it tight during the drying process. And clamp it the best you can. There are many waterproof wood glues to use, would not use 5200, but I guess you can. Mighty pricey though. When all glued up, then seal the...

    Switching trailers in my garage with DIY lift

    I used a cheap pair of block n tackle on the garage rafters. Another time, swapped out trailers in a parking lot - one tree. Rope on the transom to pull it off onto 2 tires. One rope over a tree limb to hold the bow up. Another time or 3, I dumped it on the lawn.

    Trolling Walleye. Any insight?

    We've been walleye fishing NW Ontario shield lakes, and many Wisconsin waters for 60+ years. Many many techniques work. Key is getting the bait to the fish. In some waters, Jigging in 4 to 6' of water with small crawler or minnow or leach, either under the weeds, or over a mud flat that have...

    Aluminum boat leaking

    I'd wouldn't mind taking on a gal or two, in a day. Where is this lake you go to? I prefer skinny blonde gals, but honestly, at this point, I ain't picky.
