  1. If it were me, and of course it is not... unless there is some sort of sentimental attachment to the rig, I would sell it in Az.
  2. Agreed. If it was working fine, I would use a plastic epoxy and call it a day. FWIW, I use an 83/200 but only because I could not find a 50/200 for my lawrence. Not much difference but you will get a bit more coverage in deeper water with the 50.
  3. +1 I use the Trollbridge 12x24 to maintain the batts for my MG Xi5 and am very satisfied.
  4. I was up to Millens 1st week of October. It was on then, but the wind made it tough.
  5. Possibly, but it didn't look like above. This was red and more ball shaped and was mostly submerged with about maybe a ft. above the surface. Earlier this morning, I contacted the Rochester Coast Guard for any information. They had only 1 other report of it which seems surprising...Anyway, they looked into it and said it was placed there by the Feds doing some sort of Geological Study and was done in early October while not informing any of the local agencies. Sounds about right... Anyway, this thing doesn't sit very high in the water, so keep an eye out!
  6. Wondering if anyone has any knowledge of what appears to be maybe a weather buoy on the East side of the bay, South of the channel markers and north of the 104 bridge. I noticed it for the first time this year while perch fishing, Sunday. Just curious!
  7. x4 but don't hesitate to pull the carb and give a good cleaning. It's a simple set up.
  8. looks like this post was over a year ago. I would think he made a decision by now.
  9. Crestliner Sabre 21'-27' from Mid 80's till early 90's then became the Eagle WA. not really uncommon. However the 21' was the most common w/outboard. Sometimes with the SST transom. And don't forget Lund although generally the HT's are I/O. Also Sea Nymph but I don't recall a HT model.
  10. That would explain why the one I saw, was so darn narrow and a pretty flat bottom.
  11. Something the locals have lived with as far back as I can remember. Although, I don't recall the trestle being an issue until the COE redesigned added their work.
  12. I looked at a 22' back in the early 90's. I don't know about a big lake boat?? They were narrow with a pretty flat bottom! Like anything else, pick your days and it would be fine.
  13. I'm not 100% sure...But, I would guess you hit the old trolley tracks.
  14. I would guess it's in the install of the new pump. Any chance you have the blades curled the wrong way?
  15. I thought Southbay on Empire was a dealer for Tohatsu?? Either way, I heard their service was pretty good. I would also check Eastlake in Hamlin and Pugsleys in Ontario.
  16. Not much at Braddocks. I have taken a few along the sunken pier where the the hotel used to be. Guys used to fish Wautoma Shoals but that was ancient history. Hedges will still produce but nothing like years ago. Just keep your bait off the bottom away from the gobies.
  17. You have a couple places in Sandy Creek on Rt 3 just east of Port Ontario. better luck west toward Oswego and even better if you look around Sodus. tough time of year right before winterization starts.. IMO, do it yourself. Not too difficult of a job and not at the mercy of someone else.
  18. They were removing the bad areas that were breaking down.
  19. I run a basic 2d 83/200 on mine
  20. Everything...fish and game is soaked, then frozen in milk.
  21. Not a lot of options. if these are your side curtains , don,t zip them shut. Maybe have some zippers added to get some air. My Crestliner HT was an oven in the summer and adding a fan on the dash helped. also helpful for clearing the windows on a cold morning.
  22. I haven't seen any mention of cleaning the carb(s). sorry if I missed it. Sounds like the highspeed circuit. do a thorough cleaning or rebuild. I have never had an outboard that didn't drip fuel when left in the tilted position. it generally drips right from the carb throat due to the bowl being full.
