    Evinrude E Tec 135

    Was looking at a used boat today with an Evinrude E Tec 135. We cranked it up with the ear muffs and it run perfect except I noticed the motor was not peeing out the pee-hole. Was told that it won't unless the foot is submerged. Does that sound right??

    Has anyone tried installing a reverse polarity switch on their trolling motor ? There are many situations I need to reverse the motor where I can't turn it 180* with the foot pedal.

    Short Ramp Hang-up

    Due to low water conditions, several of our ramps are short and pose a problem of backing the trailer in too far and dropping off the end. The trailer spring hangers catch the edge and won't allow pulling the trailer out! This has happened to me twice. I was thinking about removing the front...

    Seat Pedestal

    Does anyone know where I can find a fold down pedestal for my front deck seat on my bass boat? I found one on-line called "Quick Drop" but evidently they are no longer in business. :confused:

    Tongue Extend

    The crank post on my trailer is so far forward I cannot lower my pick-up tailgate when the trailer is attached normally. I have been using an 8" hitch extender which works okay but it is a pain having to deal with every time I attach the boat. What I am thinking is to remove the ball mount and...

    Treated Wood vs Aluminum

    I have been reading about treated wood vs aluminum causing electrolysis. Does this apply only in areas where water is in contact acting as an electrolyte, or in dry areas too? I built a shelf with treated plywood in a dry storage compartment which contacts my aluminum hull. I use my boat in...
