    Cost estimate help for a fiberglass repair please.

    25' center console mint condition hull except for a 2.5' scrape dead cent on the bottom of the boat. I want to call it the keel, but I doubt that is the proper name. The sturdy part the front of the boat would sit on if it was sitting flat on the ground a few feet back from the front. The scrape...

    What is the reputation of Trophy Boats?

    The one I am asking about is a 1998 Center Console about 21'-23' long. A neighbor has it for sale and it looks to be in excellent condition and seems to be very well cared for. What is the reputation of this boat?

    Are Trophy Boats Any Good?

    A neighbor has a 1998 Center Console Trophy Boat for sale, about 21'-23' I would guess, but I will find out. The boat seems to be in very good condition and seems to be very well taken care of. Do Trophy Boats that are 10 years old have a reputation? Good or bad? Thanks ;)

    1988 V4 110hp Evinrude Controls Problem

    After doing a bit of work (got the boat in mid September, 20' Aluminum Mirrocraft cuddy) I finally took it out for the first time today. Motor ran excellent. However, I had a lot of trouble with the throttle lever control for the motor (original). Everytime I shifted into forward or reverse (and...

    Adding Permanent Rod Holders To My Boat

    My 20' boat is aluminum and there is plenty of room to add permanent rod holders on the sides and/or back. I see that these rod holders can be straight up and down or angled. The angled seems much harder to install (getting the angle right that is). Is there any disadvantage/advantage to the...

    Need Help Anchoring My Boat

    It's a 20'4" cuddy and I can't figure the best way to anchor it. There are cleats on either side in bow and the only other place up front would be the place I hook it to pull it up on the trailor (can't really get to it easily). No matter what, I suppose the only way will be to go up through the...

    1989 Mirrocraft 2096 Outboard.....Gas Tank Size?

    This boat is in incredibly good condition given its 19 year age. I just got it from the original owner's estate. I have the original owneer's manual for the outboard, but I can't find any information anywhere that will tell me the size of the built in gas tank. I know, drain the gas and fill it...

    I Need A New Marine Radio and Antenna...What's Best?

    I went to West Marine and saw what they had, but seem over priced. I have ordered stuff from Iboats.com and have always been satisfied. I need a new radio and antenna. I need a 4 foot fairly stiff fiberglass antenna so that when I fold it down for trailering it isn't flopping and hitting the...

    1988 V4 110hp Evinrude VRO Motor Question

    I have asked a few questions here already and everyone has been very helpful. I bought a boat and motor with relatively little use given their age. When I take the cover off the motor everything is so clean and new looking that it looks to only be a few years old (it's from 1988). I have been...

    Boat Cleaning/Drainage Question

    I recently bought a 20' 1989 Mirrocraft Voyageur aluminum deep v hull boat with a 1988 Evinrude 110hp V4 motor on it. Both are in incredibly good shape considering the age and the vinyl covered floor is in excellent shape. it was stored inside except for the limited times it was actually being...

    Just Bought A 1988 V4 Evinrude 110hp 2 Stroke...Need Knowledgeable Opinions Please

    I just bought a boat with a 1988 V4 Evinrude 110hp 2 stroke with fairly low hours and I would like to know the reputation of this motor. Has it proven to be a good runner over the long haul? This motor was very well maintained by the original owner and had relatively little use over its life...
