2000 Horizon 180 Ski & Fish
I am having issues with the removable seats staying clamped into position to the top of the flip top covers for under seat access. This has become a safety issue with more than one person taking a tumble getting into the boat due to the latches not being trustworthy...
I have a secondary Fish Finder/GPS unit I would like to put on my boat. The transducer is a transom mount. With the research I have done I am confident in mounting the transducer. My next issue is wiring the transducer. I do not have an open spot on the transom to feed the wiring back into...
2000 Four Winns Horizon 180 F & S
The boat is new to me. Needed a livewell pump when I purchased it, put one on this weekend. Had a 500 GPH, put a 750 GPH it. Took it for a water test, hit the switch, works great!!!!!!! Outside of the water test from purchasing this was the first time out...
Just brought home the boat this week. Needs a Bilge pump. Concerned on finding the proper replacement. Not what I was expecting from a setup standpoint. The cartridge seems to be part of the hull. Still looking and need to get better lighting to see. Any input will be appreciated.
I would like to add a spare fuel tank for my 89 Yamaha 90 hp. It currently has a 6 gallon metal tank. Looking at local retailers has me confused based on the connections which come on a new tank. Looking online I find many used tanks that look like mine, appear to have the same type of...

1988 Blue Fin Sportsman 17 -
I am 95% sure I have a leak somewhere between the livewell intake and the live well itself. I had the boat out last weekend and when I pulled the plug I was amazed by the amount of water. I ran the bilge pump out on the water, before I started using the live well...

Working on light for my first boat trailer combo. Put a new wiring harness and LED tail lights right away. I am having troubles finding submersible LED center mount amber markiing and red ( there are 3 across the back).
Do the even make them?
Just got home with it and cannot explain my excitement. Anyone have any experience with a bow mount troller on this boat? With the layout of the bow, I am not sure the beast approach. It appears there are no access panels to get to the empty spaces or even under the live well?
Any ideas...
