    My friend's trailer lights

    My fishing buddy stores his 25 ft. pontoon and trailer on my property. He finally decided to fix his trailer lights and bought the led light kit. He didn't spring for the extra money for mounting brackets so he just zip tied the lights to the trailer. But back to the subject. He hooks up the...

    My kill switch doesn't kill

    I discovered the other day by accident that my kill switch does not work. 97 Stratos with 97 115Johnson. The lanyard had disconnected from the ignition key but the motor still ran. Where do I start in trouble shooting this problem? The ignition is the type that has the kill switch "indenting...

    I am soooooo stupid.

    Way back in the early spring my fishing partner and I went to launch my boat and the starting battery was weak. We didn't want to waste the trip so we (read that he) swapped the starting battery for one of my trolling batteries. The big motor started and off we go. After the trip, I replaced the...

    When it rains, it poors.

    Title is a deliberate mispelling. My main sewer line from my house to the septic was plugged. I had tried using a household drain snake but it was too weak to cut thru the grease plugs. I then inserted a garden house with a nozzle and that didn't work,although it was a temporary fix two weeks...

    Teach your kids archery for discipline

    Around age 10 my dad got me one of those Little Bad-boy Compound Bow beginner kits. Of course, the first month I went around our place sticking arrows in anything that could get stuck by an arrow. Did you know that a 1955 40 horse Farmall tractor will take 6 rounds before it goes down? Tough...

    Computer Mouse Question

    Here's my problem. Let's say I'm looking at a post in Non-boating Technical Issues. When I click on my return arrow to return to post topics, sometimes my mouse will "double click" and return me to the previous area i.e. Stupid Human tricks. There is no audible double click sound. This also...

    Question for old Indy 500 fans

    Watching the race yesterday got me to wondering who was the guy in the trench coat that pitched STP back in the late 60's early 70's. Was that Andy Granitelli (sp?) ? :confused: My old brain doesn't remember things like it used to.:redface:

    Bank Fees Rant

    I was just on-line with my bank and noticed a fee of $6.00. ?? I called the local branch and was informed that this fee was because my balance fell below $1500.00.:mad: Now let's not forget that this occurred 12 nano-seconds before $3000.00 was transferred to this account from another...

    Thanks to iboats I don't need help.

    On my last boat outing I noticed that my trailer wiring was fraid, cut, and otherwise damged. I know how it happened and repaired the wiring. However, I tested the trailer's lights on my Ranger and not the F-150 that the trailer was hooked to when damaged. Driving the F-150 I then discovered...

    Was I coming in the door or was I heading out?

    Doh!! I guess it's finally hit me. I was in the process of making coffee this morning when error #1 hit. I was just about to pour the ground coffee into the coffee maker when I barely realized in time that I forgot to put the coffee filter in. Whooo, dodged a mistake there. I then added the...

    I just bought two new t-shirts today with witty sayings and pictures on them. Yeh, I know I'm a moron, but I'm a sucker for fishing related t-shirts. Question in poll: Do you wash your brand new clothing before wearing them?
