    Quite the CL find!

    http://houston.craigslist.org/boa/2466311639.html This is a 2005 Carolina Skiff 198 DLX. Its front right side was damaged in a hurricane so we cut off the side below the damage all the way around. Its a self bailing hull (unsinkable) We've tossed around the idea of cutting the sides all the way...

    Need the end for throttle cable?

    I purchased a 1972 Johnson 50 hp short shaft outboard today for my jon boat. It starts runs and shifts great on the muffs, but he did not have the throttle cable hooked up.

    Will this trailer work?

    My trailer right now is not that great, it just has small tires and I am too nervous to pull it at highway speeds, its kinda rough in general. I found a tandem axle trailer about 2 hours away that the guy used to pull an 18 ft boat with, the price is right for me! Would I be able to get my 1652...

    Johnson 25 horse starter

    I have an old Johnson 25 horse outboard motor on my bowfishing boat, I went to start it the other day and when the kill switch was disengaged (allowing to start) the starter would turn it over a few times then it would start clanking and the starter would disengage. I did get the outboard...
