TilliamWe, you'll probably see me out next summer! I actually went out last Sunday! 75 degrees in November!! Couldn't resist! Had to put in at Detwilier since the river is up so high. What kind of boat do you have?

Yep, if you can use it in November, do it.

I am boatless, and have been for over a year now.

Pulled the floor up over the gas tank today because it has a little soft spot on it. In between the 2 strips of wood. You can kind of see the circle. What type of plywood is recomended and do i epoxy it or fiber glass it?

1/2" cdx is fine you can epoxy it or use poly and some csm.

Nice ride. I had an 89 baja 190 sport with a 4.3 LX, red,black & silver,with dual exhaust, and that would rearly run strong. It hit 62 mph with a 25 pitch turbo prop. I ran that boat hard, and that motor was bullet proof. I hope you have as much fun with yours as I did mine. Red boats are awsom. I have slept up front in mine. Keep up the good work, and have fun.

62 MPH!!! That's fast! What prop did you have? I'm running a 19 pitch, 3 blade and i think i barely hit 50... I have a 21, 3 blade, but the leading edges are kind of rough. I might just take a grinder to the edges to smooth them up.
