    Really , 😁 so why do they make so much marine stuff out of brass , like propeller ,rudder , rowlocks , fairlead ,cleats ,exhaust manifold screws that hold the boat together.

    Yep there are some idiots out there. Once found a boat load of peeps ,all ages 5km from the nearest land , waving frantically......not a drip of fuel on the boat. Rather than try to pour fuel on the high seas I butchered a fuel hose to fit his boat and gave him my 12L tote . Despite all...

    tahoe 1950 trailer guide pole

    Huh , the poles on my trailer are at the back and are heavy wall 2"galv pipe and are welded to the frame and dont bend . I slid a bit of 2½" alkathene tube over the pole so it can rotate when the boat contacts it . I often use the pole as a fulcrum in side current or wind .🙂

    flat line trolling for trout

    Every few years we get a Beach mast ( beach trees flower and go to seed ) which provides a banquet for mice and their population explodes . Trout , big ones gorge on the mice and a floating mouse lure gets good results.
