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.
I bought a boat that once had a fish finder. The previous owner removed and discarded the display unit because it had been left unprotected in the sun too many years and was ruined. He did leave the transducer but it appears that the connector to the display has been cut off and discarded along...
Does anyone have tips or a procedure for launching and retrieving a boat from a trailer single handed? I'm in a situation where I'll probably have to do that without help most of the time. I'm not talking about a rowboat here.
The trailer has guides so lining up the boat in fairly calm wind and...
I bought a used Bayliner deck boat, 22' 4000 lbs. It had no trailer when I bought it so I plan to set up a used trailer to fit properly. The bottom shape of this boat is a little unusual. What is the best way to support it on the trailer? Look at the photo and you can see that it is resting on...
