    Custom "Princess" Bow Cushion

    If you have a sewing machine, it will be a LOT less to DIY. Your local JoAnn's Fabric will have the foam and the vinyl.

    Newbie alert. Tilt/trim question Help!

    Looks like you have power trim in those pictures. Doesn't mean it's working, but those hydraulic cylinders are the clue.

    Potential new boat owner

    My first piece of advice is to no wait "until the Spring", because you and every other new boat buyer will be shopping at the same time. Even down here in Florida, the market slows considerably in December, and I, for one, think that's ideal for the buyer....not so much the seller. Your budget...

    Enough horsepower?

    I wonder how this turned out? It does seem odd that someone was willing to trade "down" in HP on the same year model motor. If I was trying to moving from a higher HP to a lower one I'd at least want to make sure whatever I'm trading for is at the very least, newer. As to the OP's question...

    New boat owner!

    Always check everything while the boat's still on the trailer in your driveway. Obviously, no one can tell the future, but a lot of times, boats that break down on the water were trying to tell the owner the night before when it was at home. Good luck, enjoy it and make plenty memories.

    Pro or amatuer hull repair?

    Can't believe y'all don't know what that is. And since that's the case, I'm not going to tell you, so there.

    1992 Johnson 140 Looper install fine tuning questions. Rough idle/stalling after install.

    Try running it on a portable fuel tank. Someone you know has to have one or you can pick one up at Walmart for $50.00. If the problem goes away, then it's a bad gas issue. If not, then I would find that manual and/or google "lync & sync" for those carbs. Idle mix screws can be set pretty...

    Forum update

    I like the new layout. Agreed about the font but I can handle until it's fixed. Kudos!

    What a difference;

    Just got my new ADDA-top and started the install. Got rained out yesterday so I still need to fix the standoffs to the console but what a difference it makes in how the boat looks;

    EVA flooring installed

    Definitely not a “pro” job but a lot more comfortable to walk in and it adds to the looks of the boat. We will see how well it holds up over time m. Definitely shows dirt.

    Yamaha 150XLRY-2 Stroke...Buy the whole kit!!

    Just a heads up when you’re planning to change out your water pump impeller. Buy the entire kit to include the housing. Yamaha uses the plastic housing, btw. Dropped my LU to do an impeller change and found out the housing was melted on one side. I got very lucky this thing didn’t overheat last...

    Added Puck Lighting

    Stole the idea from YouTube. Amazon Submersible puck lights. I filled the back with epoxy because it wasn’t smooth, in order to use 3M double sided tape. Great way to add deck lighting on the cheap, btw. For $24.00 if they last through winter I’ve done well. Ignore the boat cover, lol. Lots of...

    EVA Foam Flooring

    So, I just ordered a roll of the gray teak with the black “grout”. Should be here this weekend or early next week. It’s the self-adhesive stuff so I’m guessing it’s pretty straight forward; cut it to fit. Has anyone tried the stuff? Love to have SeaDeck but that’s quite out of the budget. Any...

    I’m gonna need a Dealers License - HNBD!!

    At this point the State of Florida is going to start watching me. But who cares, lol, cuz I got a new to me boat!! Two foot itis, turned into 3 foot itis. My new 2000 Angler 204 F; Bought it on Saturday and then listed my boat which sold on Sunday. Things don’t last around these parts. This was...
