    That poor barn is like a black hole !! When the last screw was put in things kept coming there. inlaws, kids, wife , friends saw an empty space and had to fill it.

    I need to find my barn !! I have a 1977 20' Thompson 228 hp mercrusier with a (mr) outdrive. its on a easyloader trailer with 6 bolt wheels and (non working )brakes. There is a head with a pumpout. Good fixer upper, or parts. I bought the islander and this has set in my barn since 08 . Would like it gone, $800 or make an offer .

    Northland has a rattle they use on jigs for bass. It slips over the leadre nice. Comes in a double "shotgun" or a single. I like gamagatsu (not spelled right ) round bend 3x strong in 1/0 for hooks

    If it sat for that long check the wiring for mice damage. My Islander sat along time and the mice ate every bit of the insulation off the trailer wiring. I had bare wires the whole length of the trailer. Soulds like a nice boat if you can get it right.

    Watch the little metal clevis on the breakaway cable. Sometimes it will turn and worry its way through the cable and you lose a weight . Its the horseshew shaped piece that makes the loop for the snaps. I run the probe anytime the rigger is used.

    Adjusting the radio will stop the static. A good antenta is a plus

    Most of the kinking happens when there is slack in the wire. It gets loops then when they pull tight , KINK ! Keep the wire tight even when not using it. And when bring the bait or fish. into the boat.
