i have tried to get a picture at every place i visit in the mtns. these pictures are some of my favorite i have taken. i have wondered about starting to try to sell these some how. how would a non-professional go into business for himself? please tell me input on running a business and what you...

good news - all that i built works good<br />bad news - cant get motor to run good until 10 sec before runs out of gas.<br /><br />this was the second time taking the boat out. video is from my phone. at the end i have to stop the video to slow down over some other boats wake. it is running at...
just got the project boat back on the water! it ran perfect before i took it off the boat. problem is that at idle, motor shakes about every 5 to 10 sec. then cant get it above 4000 rpm or 30 mph (prob blow out at 4100). until last night i was running low on gas to see how low new tank setup...
I have been rebuilding a 1991 searay 160 with a 100hp merc and the same year shorelander trailer. Before i took it to the lake (for the first time) i had no cushions with only the two capt seats in, and the fuel tank was empty. I went to a feed store with a scale and got the weight of the boat...
its a 1991 100 hp. i hooked up all the cables last night and fired it up. its fine when i go from forward to neutral. the problem is when i go from reverse to neutral i hear grinding coming from the lower unit (it slows down but doesnt quit grinding). there is a black nob that i can adjust the...
I got this in an e-mail, thought I had to share. I have always known a child doesnt see color, but we all know that all people are born with the idea of "THATS MY FISH".<br /><br />
I was stuck trying to figure out the dash pieces and foot rest for a long time. the window never really lined up from the beginning, but i tried every way i could to line it up. ended up gettting it within 1/2" from from perfect.<br />then there were the bow seats. im running out of the 6 sheets...
I just realized this last night. (my project is starting to see a light at the end!)I bought 11ft of 5/8" vent hose to go on the tank (because that is what fits it) and tried to put in on. then i find out the vent on the side of my boat has 1/2".<br />The only thing i can think of is a reducer...
went fishing with dad this last weekend.<br />this is what i did:<br />soaked in (called brine) atleast overnight<br />1lb brown sugar and 4 cups salt over night in a cooler filled 3/4 with brine and fish then fill the rest with ice.<br />added water and wine or beer below the fish in small...
it wasnt very easy to put the top on, forgot how awkward and heavy it was. there is small 1/4" gap in front driver side for about 6 rivits worth. it shouldnt be a problem once i can walk in there. 5 to 7 days for 3m 5200 that i put ontop of the stringers and before the screws went in. it is nice...
