The iboats forum moderators are excited to announce that at this time it appears the iboats forums posting pictures function is working once again. Though we cannot promise for how long, we're hoping for indefinitely.
Got home yesterday and heard a hissing sound around the side of the house at the gas meter. I wasn't sure if it was a leak or just the normal sound of gas rushing through it (furnace was on). So like the smart guy I am I stuck my face up to the meter and took a whiff.
There was a faint smell...
Last month I scored some $190 Costa del mar sunglasses for $90. Today my brother in law texts me a picture of the fishing reel he just purchased. A Pflueger Supreme XT for $79!!
Long story short, I went out after work and picked one up from gander mountain. This was an in store special (not...
A little back story....
I fish "A LOT". I have had the same pair of polarized glasses for years and the lenses are nearly clear at this point from sun bleaching I would assume. I wanted to buy a pair of high quality sunglasses for both superior eye protection and superior optical quality. Some...

This thread is intended for simple mindless entertainment by all.
Please share your funny/interesting youtube videos here. It doesn't really matter to me if it's been posted somewhere on the forum before.
I'll start. This dude is absolutely insane. I love to play this video on my 47" tv when...
So I have to install new trim on a bunch of doors. My wife went out and got me an air compressor on black Friday that puts out 2.4 CFM @ 90 psi (craftsman 1 hp 3 gallon unit).

A cat used the newel post at the top of my stairs for as a scratching post (previous owner). We are getting the upstairs carpet replaced and I need to replace the post before the new carpet goes down. I'm not sure how it is fastened to the floor and just don't want to do any damage removing it...
Just reading another thread and my mind started to wander.....
Is there any research out there as to what color boat is best for bass fishing??
I've heard that fish don't see color but I know that certain colors are better than others. For example the chrome/blue or firetiger rattletraps are...
I don't know when it happened but it did. The other day I spooled up my rod with trilene xl 8# and went fishing. The stuff casts a mile but I have been using zero stretch line (fireline) for a few years straight and I can't go back.
When I fish from shore I rely on LONG casts to get to...
It was close to 90 degrees here today. I ended up working through lunch so I went home early with hopes to get the boat out.
Know this, I work days, wife works nights and every weekend. We have a 1yo and a 4yo. And the wife is in school.
So long story short, when we finally get the boat to...
I sold my old tow vehicle and bought the wife a mini van. I could put a hitch on it and tow with it but I'd rather not put the wear and tear on a daily driver not really designed to tow.
I'm "considering" buying something like a late 90's Tahoe/Yukon with 160k on it as I have seen them for...
Spending the week of Aug 8'th in the 1000 islands. I have been up there twice before with limited success fishing. As this will be a family vacation I will likely only get one or two serious fishing outings in and I would like to make the most of it.
So does anyone want to offer there...
I need a hitch on our '08 Nissan Quest. The reese kit is a bolt on kit (or so it says). It's $50 for Pep boys to install plus another $25-75 to install the wiring.
My question is are these bolt on kits truly bolt on, or will I have to drill holes in the frame, drop the exhaust etc... to get it...
Before I start let me specify Merc alpha1 gen1. Engine is mcm185. a 3.8 liter V6 mercruiser similar to the 4.3.
So I dewinterized my boat today and started it up on the muffs. It took a while for water to come out of the exhaust but since the block was drained I figure no big deal.
After the...
Last year I used 6 or 8 pound fireline all season with impressive results. The stuff is so strong that when I got snagged I was worried that my rod would break before the line. With this in mind I thought I would try the 4# test fireline crystal this year.
I bought a spool ($15) cleaned and...
Fellow AV Geeks, I have a question.
Here's the setup...
I'm Putting up crown moulding to hide my speaker wires for my 5.1 surround sound system. I lowered the surround (rear) speakers to be 2 feet above seated ear level and what a difference it made. They were up near the ceiling before. I did...
As it's going to get cold next week around here I am giving up my boating season and winterizing tomorrow. I want to replace my impeller but do not have the kit. My question is this...
Can I leave the lower unit without lube in it for an extended period?? Possibly the whole season. It's an...
I tried to use spinner's frappr link yesterday and just kept getting page link errors. Same thing is happening today. I also tried to go straight to the frappr home page to no avail.
Does anyone know anything?
Can anyone else get on to the frappr site? Maybe it's just me that can't get on...
