Half the stuff I've order has come from Amazon, the other half from Ebay. Sometimes they're just a lot cheaper, otherwise I'd just order all of it from Amazon because it usually gets here quicker.

The smaller sellers tend to have better pricing on Ebay, I'm assuming because there's a bigger fee at Amazon. I did just order the exhaust seals for my outboard from a place direct, however. Look at me, supporting all of online retailing!

Don't forget Iboats! Forum members get 10% off... used them many times because the discount made them the cheapest option

Oh that goes without saying.

I’m a ,would rather pick up from a store person usually .. But you can usually find what your looking for easier online I do admit ..I try to use the forum host store when I can but last time I tried the order just wouldn’t confirm and go through ..
That was a week or s ago .. May have been on my end idk but didn’t have the problem on Amazon ...

Yup I tried a couple of times with Iboats and even sent an email for some answers about products I needed info on before a purchase. I didn't get a return and went another direction. The $$ were good but I wasn't knowing if it was the exact unit I wanted to purchase.
Great forums, great people, great prices just glichy. It's a huge investment to make computer marketing sales smooth. But we are here to support them!

How ya feelin ole man?

Physically feeling a lot better Mick in the last 2 days. Able to sit up from horizontal without expletives. I'm in week 3 so I expect 2 more weeks to begin moderate duty.
Thanks for asking. :mad-new:

Sending 2nd budge cover back. leaky as the 1st. Looks nice though...lol.
ordered a trident cover with zipper entrance. Costs more but looks tough. We'll see. Sunbrella material would be the way to go but get a 2nd job to pay for it.

Just quit fiddling around and get better - that's an order!

Eric,
Yes Sir, Yes Sir....will do.
The do nothing days and the view of the boat out my window is working to get me back on the boat. New cover showed up so picking a day that has no rain. Been rainy here the last few days.

 

[AShipShow]

Lemme know which cover you end up using, I'm looking for a decent quality one that won't break the bank since I gotta store the boat outside for the winter.

Well weather is not cooperating till sat. this weekend. Rain and more rain. So looking forward on sat. to install top and possibly get the motor hung.
Mad Props I'll post some pics. and comments after install.

 

[kcassells]

Lets see if they upload
Well this unit is pretty cool. Has side entrance port and starboard with zipper. I ordered it an extra foot so when I hang the motor it gets covered.
Second pic shows a ratchet and pulls the ribbon of the tarp tight to the hull. Ea. side has 8 pull strings to button up the top.
Test is if it will repel water and bare the weight of snow.
Generally pretty happy. I put the heater in today and got warm in @ 30 minutes. I was getting worried that the tarp breathed so much the heat gets out. I had to take off my coats and sweats in @ 30 minutes. Another cool thing is it lets natural light in.
I made some mods as you can see and have total headroom on walkaround, front and rear. Rest of the day was dedicated to cleaning out the debris from the prior storm.
