    Hey Everyone

    It's been a while since I've logged in here. Just haven't had much time for internet forums. Hopefully I can make it here more often now that things have settled down for me. BTW The Seacast transom is holding up well :)

    Last Bucket of Seacast Poured

    Now that the dust has somewhat settled after moving I've had some time to work on the boat. Yesterday I poured the last bucket of seacast. I am really happy with the results.

    I'm having a hard time locating a source for the aluminum splashwell drains that go through the transom. They are basically a flared piece of 1" aluminum tubing. Anybody have any ideas where I can get replacements for these? Thanks

When I was looking things over before I installed the plate I noticed there would be a problem with the steering cylinder clearing the transom when tilting the engine all the way. The transom is notched where the engine sits but the width of the...

    Trailer Wiring / What Kind?

    I have a short in the wiring on my trailer and upon further inspection I have decided the best solution is to replace all the wiring. The original wiring doesn't say "marine" on it. I looked at the wiring on my dad's trailer and it says "marine" on it. So......what kind of wire should I use?

    Adding an extra battery?

    I am considering adding an extra battery to power accessories instead of powering them from the starting battery. I do a lot of trolling with a kicker that doesn't charge my battery and I don't want to be stuck on the water with a dead battery after hours of trolling. I have room for a group 24...
