    Ain't Gonna Take Her No More!

    I take a lady friend of mine fishing with me, but I ain't gonna do it no more! We went out today and she boated five nice bass in the 1-2 pound range. She caught her first fish ever this summer at the head of the creek we've been frequenting. You would have thought she pulled up a bucket of gold...

    Skeeter Boat

    I see there are a couple of Skeeter boat owners here. I'd like to pick your brain. I've found a 1986 Skeeter F-80 Strada 15'3" with a 75hp Merc of the same year. It has been garage kept and going for $3,000.00. Do any of you have any experience with this particular boat, likes/dislikes? Is it...

    Thoughts on Time

    I was reading some of the posts to JB on his post about his B'Day (BTW, Happy Birthday JB) and a lot were about the passage of time. You guys are correct, time is passing more quickly, and I can tell you why.<br /><br />Although time is the measure of distance through space, to us it is...

    Value of a Lone Star boat

    A friend of mine has a 17' Lone Star "Medallion" boat he wants to trade me for some work. The boat has no engine and needs some TLC but the aluminum hull is in excellent shape. There is one small finger length dent about 1/32" deep on the hull up near the deck. It has the original steering...

    Un-Funny SHT

    In the early 70's a friend of mine and some of his friends went to a swimming hole he with which he was unfamiliar. They all ran down a small dock and jumped in the water while he was parking his truck. To make him think the water was deeper than it was, they were standing on their knees with...

    Just want to introduce myself and say Hi

    Well, I got tired of fishing from the bank and decided to find me a boat. A friend down the street had a 14' jon boat with a 25 Merc, trolling motor, and Eagle depth finder. The engine wouldn't run ever since he loaned it to a friend. I had a Winchester Model 94 rifle I was trying to sell and we...

    Carb problem on 1982 25HP Merc

    I tried doing a search but found nothing like my problem. I just got a 1982 Mercury 25 hp outboard engine. I rebuilt the carb as best I could since several parts are NLA. I can get the engine running, but as soon as the bowl is empty, it quits. I would say it was a diaphragm problem, but it is...
