  1. Trailer Drama Update:

         Took my trailer to a local Welder named Dave at Drelick's Welding Service right off of Whalen Road in Penfield.  I read good things about them and decided to take my trailer there to get worked on.  Dropped it off on Monday evening and had it back in my driveway on Wednesday evening.  I am beyond delighted with the work Dave did.

         Goes in the water.....finally next week.   Thanks for all the words of wisdom in replying to my post.

     

    Take care and TIGHT LINES to all.

     

    Regards,

  2. Hey Guys,

        Always appreciate the great feedback from this forum.  I was able to get my boat to a local welder and waiting to see the end result.  He was a bit reluctant to take it on due to a liability issue.  I told him, please don't worry.  Should get it back tomorrow or Friday.  I have been scouting for used trailers and they seem to be few and far between.  Not into buying a new one but it may come to that.  I'll post the end result when I get it.  Thanks again to all of you....greatly appreciated.

     

    Regards,

  3. Hi Gang,

         I have a 1995 Sea Nymph Trailer that is truly showing it's age.  I'm including two screenshots.  I got my boat out of storage and towed it back home to do my "get my boat ready for the season" kind of day.  Getting it in my driveway I looked at it's Achilles heel and noticed....I was lucky to get it home.  My question is can I do a quick "fix" on this just to shore it up to get it to the water and launched and then see my what my options are.  The "crack" on the first photo happened on the way home from Marion to Penfield.  Again, looking for a quick fix just to get my boat launched and then...can this be repaired or is a 26 year old trailer time for a replacement.   Looking for advice.

  4. Hi Guys,

        I finally bought a newer motor for my 19' Sea Nymph.  I was replacing a 1995 70hp Evinrude that became problematic over time.  Excited to experience the motor but will have to wait till next season.

    This is my dilemma.  The EZ steer bracket that fit on my old Evinrude doesn't look like it will fit on my 2016 75HP etec motor.   Any suggestions.  I'm not locked into EZ steer but if I could avoid having to change, it would be better.  Looking for advice.

     

    Thanks!

    Hi,

        Thanks for replying.  It feels like the inside of the canister is turning but the the actual part where it is screwed is not moving.  Hence, the filter turns but not the screwed in part.  This is just my hunch and what it feels like for me.

    Thanks,
