    Ocean LED drain plug light

    what does everyone think about this. I was wanting to add the lights to my boat but was unsure about drilling the holes in the transom. This would solve the drilling problem plus it would put the light under the outdrive for optimal lighting of the wake. Does anyone have this yet? My only...

    I just purchased this boat the other week, it came with a bimini top and the top has a cover to keep it all together. In my engine compartment there are dividers that dip down on either side of the engine where it looks like I can put the top there. The thing is, it will be touching my risers...

    I have never seen this type of coupler on a trailer and I am unsure if there is a lock that will secure this while on my truck. Does anyone have any idea on what type of lock I can get that will both secure this trailer when it is on and off of my truck?
