    10' sitin kayak

    You are in zero risk from electrocution with a 12 volt battery. A deep cycle battery in a 10 foot kayak may be another challenge though.

    Tried to help a guy selling a vintage Alumacraft

    There is a tag on an alumacraft Transom that has the model on it but if the boat is left outside over the years the tag may have faded. A Deep C is worth about the same as a Flying D, this one had holes in the dash that drive down any value. He said it was his dads that he bought in 1954. There...

    Tried to help a guy selling a vintage Alumacraft

    Based on his voicemail I am thinking he is more like 12 pack stupid. It is kinda funny when an idiot that is dead wrong insists on telling you how wrong you are.

    Tried to help a guy selling a vintage Alumacraft

    So even though I am not in the market I still scan Craigs on a regular basis. Guy has a flying D for sale, he has it listed as a flying C. I sent the guy a text and simply stated that he has a flying D and if he sends Alumacraft the number on the knee of the transom they will give you the model...

    It is an aluminum hull with a wood floor covered by carpet or vinyl, nothing much to it back in that era.

    Steering left goes right, right goes left

    I may have done the same thing with my first restore, cable steering. Very humbling.

    Pontoon in the snow

    Well got the dock out, I told myself that this will be the hardest pull since I had no idea what the dock was sitting on. The 14' end poles would have been nice to know that they had auger ends instead of feet, there were wheels as well that we did not know about. The air bag really helped well...
