Any ideas on this? I have a full width gravel protection skirt on my truck hitch as well as Cloud Rider mud flaps on all 4 wheel openings. Still get the trailer fenders and frame blasted with gravel. Short of avoiding gravel - any paints better than others? Coverings? Trailer protectors...
My pontoon boat has the fuel tank in the left rear (roadside for a car) and the filler is located with an opening that is at 90 degrees to the water. A pain to fill whether on the trailer or at a marina but also poorly vented. I thought of just putting a tee in the fuel filler line but am not...
My trailer bunk indoor/outdoor carpet covering is showing wood beneath and is due for replacement. What about HDPE (High Density PolyEthylene), puckboard as a replacement. Seems slippery enough and tough. Any thoughts?
Our water levels are way up this year in Central-North parts of Saskatchewan. It appears the fish are down 3 times as deep or more than usual. Any tips for fishing in such high water (Green Lake 54 degrees North and 108 degrees West is 4 feet higher than normal).
Yesterday I had my 6x12 single 3500 lb axle flat trailer behind my truck in extreme slippery mud conditions for 10 miles. I had on a small load (500 lbs?). I noticed in the mirrors that the trailer tended to swing off track and out to the left to as much as 30 degrees off track. There was...
I had a filter picked up for me at a Merc dealer. He gave my friend 35-8m0065104. I have been using the larger 35-877761k01. Are these interchangeable for my year engine? I prefer the larger for more filter area??
Hey I know that technically this is a trailer thing but I thought the pontoon forum would be a better focus:). My bunks are getting ready for covering replacement. The carpet is worn on a couple of corners. I have been thinking about using PVC material instead of carpet. The wood is sound...
I am sure you all know this. I did but forgot. A few weeks ago we did a 50 mile trip on a river with 40 feet showing consistently. Not paying attention, we entered the lake and I hit a rocky area and damaged my prop on my 90 horse Merc. Pretty hard to get the nut off even with the correct...
I bought some Castrol GTX 10-30 for my 90 refi 4 stroke 2011 Merc as it is off warranty now and I thought I'd save a buck. Caution set in and I went to the dealer and bought 25-40 Mercury oil. I did my annual oil change yesterday and inside the engine cover the temperature range showed +10 to...
I wanted an extra prop for my 90 horse Merc refi 4 stroke. Online I found a new prop for substantially less than another dealer quoted me. I had it picked up and when I opened the box - surprise - NO HUB. I watched some YouTube stuff but am still concerned about a change over if I am on the...
I have 2 VHF handheld Yaseu VHF radios and now my buddy tells me I should have GMRS?????? I bought the VHF with thoughts of remote area boating and contact with emergency responders
Looking for best choice spotlight handheld to occasional pick out shore features on remote lake. 12 volt rechargeable and waterproof would be nice. I see 2 million plus ratings for incadescent and 120 lumens for LED?????? How do you compare them?
Thanks
Just finished hand scrubbing my pontoon vinyl floor (textured material) factory installation. Looks real good after 2 seasons use and only being broomed off to date (stored inside and covered).
Is there a product that would protect it and make it easier to clean next time? I see lots of...
