Thanks guys, I checked in the prop for numbers last time I had it off but couldn't find any I'll look harder next time. I'm going to focus on adjusting this thing top get it right this year. I can't remember what RPMs its running at WOT and I cant remember what the book said it's supposed to be at, ...

I went to Dr Cogneta over on Riggins and recomend him, nice guy. My Wife's Aunt is the head nurse over there and he helped us out before we had benefits when I was still in school. I think the name of the office is Dermatology Associates of Tallahassee. Now's a good time the waiting list gets kinda ...

Thanks guys, that gives me three options, one oughta work out. I have one more question. How do you tell what pitch your prop is? I have a stainless rapture but can't find any number stamped into it anywhere. Also if I did know the pitch, is there a general rule of thumb when going from a 3 blade to...

Does anybody know if we have a local or semi-local place inTallahassee that can add cup to a stainless three blade??

Redbelly, there really is something neat about fishing in a boat that you built from a stack of wood. But a moneysaver it is not and as Chalk said if you dont have blocks of time to give to the projects it will drag on for years. Alot of the time isn't even the building its the preperation and clean...

good job Jeff

I'm sure you guys will remember that fish for a long time. That actioncraft doesn't have washdown? Either way I'm sure it was worth it and makes for a more colorful story (sorry couldn't resist)

So I've been wonderin ever since it was put up on the site, but did that Tarpon pull a ladyfish and mess all over the boat????

If so I hope they had raw water washdown.

I don't know whose there now, but I got my first summer job at Don's when I was 16. Spent many a saturdays washing Robalos, Bayliners, and Century boats. From my time there I have the following observations: 1. Those Centuries were nice boats 2. Those older Robalos were even nicer 3. The Bayliners w...

Too dang busy with school and work lately, but I'm gonna do some crazy fishin to make up for it this spring!!! Then you'll hear more from me.

Just seems too obsurd, of all the animals that guy was around, all the poisenous snakes, 10' Crocs and everything else and he gets pierced in the heart by a stingray?!?!. I mean what are the odds. The only way I could see it is if he went down all the way and bumped into a sting ray resting on the b...

Rocket, check this link out from Jamestown Distributors, they are a wooden boat building/restoration supply place up in the northeast. I used them for info when building my boat. This explains a little about metal compatibility. http://www.boatbuilding.net/article.pl?sid=06/03/14/2016224&mode=th...

Rb, I've been real pleased with it so far. Im gonna make some modifications this winter with some access hatches and need to raise the jackplate on the transom but other than that its been good. I'm looking into covering the front casting deck and floor in seadek. I don't like the nonskid paint I ha...

Redbelly, Yea its peel and stick which I was skeptical of at first but the adhesive seems really sticky. I have seen a post on Florida Sportsman where somebody installed it in a skiff with that 3M spray adhesive. It's closed cell foam and comes in two thicknesses. It seems like it would definately d...

I got some of the seadek samples in the mail and it looks like good stuff. I think one of my projects this winter will be to cover the casting deck in it. I also see Bass Pro has gallons of rubberized paint for around 60 bucks a gallon.

Jumptrout, are you on Talquin? If not you must have energystar everything and double insulation. I tell ya what when we get our first house we're gonna renovate and go with unsulated windows and doors, add extra insulation to the attic and walls when possible. If we build it will have 2x6 exterior w...
