    View of unloaded trailer with pickups

    I never could. So open the tailgate, use the camera, or….. Add a spring mounted bicycle flag to the rear of the trailer.

    Latest new car racket to cause you to by a car.

    New Stuff on Vehicles likes/dislikes

    Interesting. But would confuse the poop out of most guys I know. I turn on the lights and hit the hazard lights to check the trailer lights. Even this confuses a few people I know.

    New old stock Quicksilver prop okay to use?

    I’m pretty sure all those props are bad now. Ozone has degraded the integrity of the metal and they will likely turn to dust if you use them. Seriously, they are fine. I have several 35 and 40 year old props that work fine. Every brand and model line will be a little different, thinner...

    Remote battery charging hook up

    Buy this, cut it into a 12" piece and a 24" piece. Splice the 12" piece on in place of the clips. Add terminal rings to the 24" leads and connect to the battery.

    Remote battery charging hook up

    How about replacing the clips with a 2 prong sae connector. They are like $4 Safe secure no reversed connections. Get 2, attach the second one so you can use the clips again if needed somewhere else.

    Have you opened up the fuel pump and inspected it for crud, or a tear/ hole in the diaphragm?

    Best way to get to my boat?

    ALL KIDDING ASIDE, I THINK THE ROPE BRIDGE IS A VIABLE AND AFFORDABLE OPTION. OOOOPS. sorry. It won't help save your shoreline but will get you out there and back, and will withstand the weather if correct materials are used.

    I added a 51.2V golf cart battery for almost 10kWh of lithium power

    Toooo much money. Have you ever heard of a row boat or a canoe? Or a small sailboat? Now that would be time on the water.

    Took my dad to the er last night.

    My dad has been experiencing this for a few years. Supposed fluid in scull. Initial concern was aneurysm, but Tests and more tests indicated not blood. Blaming his heart and BP for the dizziness. Still haven’t figured it out. Fluid still supposedly there as of July when he had last scan. I...

    How do I get that last inch?

    How big, heavy, is this boat? Bunk trailer? You should be able to winch it forward. The only problem I see is that the strap is pulling slightly downward. Try raising the winch post if you can, so the strap is level, or pulling the hull slightly upward.

    Transom saver or no?

    Roads aren’t too bad around here, but I do 100-200 miles of washboard gravel in Canada every year. 15 mph would make sense, and 40 mph will bounce you into the ditch.
