    That is boat weight only, check my link to mfg website. The 115 will be under 400 lbs. The x in the model number is for the outboard bracket that gives you more interior room but adds weight.

    Yeah the styrker was what I was thinking of. With the 202 specs from the website, with a 140 tohatsu and trailer you should be in at about 3100 lbs. The merc 115 is 50 lbs lighter but that should be enough hp. 38 gal fuel so about another 200 lbs. So with gear you would kissing the high...

    1982 MR 180

    I went with the three step and I chose this one because the first step is below the tongue so that make the first or last step easy. I didn't have enough tongue space to mount there so we stabbed on some tube to the bow stop post. About 12 inches but I'll be cutting off about 5. And the wife...

    All those bodies of water can go south quickly. I grew up in the PNW and have been on them in not so nice conditions. But when they are good, oh man it is amazing. Like you i am not familiar with brands but when visiting the folks on Lopez Island I do see a style of boat. Closed bow, stand...

    Bunks it is , mainly because that is what i know i guess. I got them for the Carver because I also do solo most of the time even when I have company it's my job to do the work and their job to have fun and relax. Also my preferred ramp is the most usually affected by wind and boat...

    I'll post a pic when I can but man o man o man steps installed on the trailer tongue to get in over the bow is sooooooo much nicer that trying a three point stance on the tongue, post and winch with wet feet. Best boat dollars spent in quite some time. The way my body has degraded last 12...
