    Be carefull with the NANO hulls

    This question didn't get answered (or I missed it) wouldn't a keel guard protect from this?

    Can a Chevy Traverse pull a 242 on a trailer safely?

    It's true. There is no title for the trailer in Florida. Just a registration.

    Show us what you see!!!

    My kids would ask "Whats that weird knob thing on the back door"? From the back seat...."Where is the button to roll the window down"? ME: Uh Why do you think it's called "ROLL..."!

    Engines won’t start, please help

    Right...Doesn't move the buckets and bypasses the neutral switch.

    BUYER BEWARE!!!

    Yikes...Did you try and get a quote on uship.com? Drivers pick up loads rather than run back empty. Might have gotten a deal. I got a sequoia shipped from Texas to Florida for 500.00. Wasn't worth taking 2 days off work or losing a weekend.

    Auto Bilge

    What do you mean "Turned it on manually"? Is there more than one switch on the newer boats? I thought you had to leave the switch on all the time to get the auto to work.

    How to redo the surface of my corn hole boards with a JB Logo

    You could get it printed on UV resistant vinyl at a sticker shop and then bury it in a bunch of poly. With a steady hand, you could transfer it on there with some transfer paper and paint it in with some oil based craft paint. Then bury it in poly.

    BUYER BEWARE!!!

    http://www.aluminumboattrailer.com/ Their website sucks but their trailers are great. I paid 3600 for a great trailer but that was about 6 years ago. But it was a dual axle, 4 brakes, LEDs.... If I had to do it again, I would go with 2 brakes and kodiak all stainless brakes. If you boat in...

    Speedling in hospital.....

    WOW, I've been in chaos lately, flew back from Korea then 2 days later, spent 4 days trying to get a flight out to Bahrain so I'm behind the times. Sorry to hear about this but you seem to be doing much better. Prayers coming your way from way over here in the Middle East. Hang in there.

    Never again Page plus/Verizon

    Looks like Page plus (a prepaid service affiliated with verizon) who I had for years now is dropping my phone. Starting april 1st, they will only allow phones bought from them or from Verizon...even though my phone is verizon compatible, because it's unlocked and didn't come from them, I'm...

    You get back out there and double down....You can recover from this. I don't know how they pay for all those lights when so many winners are made. "You'll never be a winner if you walk away from the table a loser" (I should work for the casinos)

    Life is Good, 2 Weeks in Hawaii

    Awesome, We stayed in almost that exact room 2 years ago. Loved that place but DAMN they can pull money out of you in a hurry. Take a walk to eggs n things for breakfast one morning. https://www.eggsnthings.com/ Enjoy it.

    242LTD S Sinks in salt water

    Ugh, that sucks. If the engines/electronics were under water, call your insurance company and let it go. The issues you'll have later might not make it worth it to try and save it.

    2005 AR230 saga continues, now I have water in the oil

    Whoa whoa whoa....Electric hoist? Disqualified....No wonder you can do it so fast. Seriously, that's impressive.

    Diggin ditches...

    Make sure to note the health risks to your kids since it's a breeding ground AND to your wife of childbearing age (even if you don't plan on having more kids) with the standing water and scary Zika threat. ...Toss in H1N1, bird flu, hanta virus ebola....the stress of it all is making you...

    Oh well then if it's county property, I'd call them and ask for a drain....then I'd call back next week and ask again...then next week.....then.......

    Diggin ditches...

    Another vote for french drain...... holy pipe covered in gravel. Done. Just size it appropriately for the amount of water and slope.
