I AM LOOKING FOR A COUPLE OF PENN 320GT 'S USED IS BEST SOME ONE WANTED MINE MORE THAN I DID. BE GENTLE. I KNOW THEY ARE PRICEY BUT USED IS USED

DAVE,

I LIVE IN SYRACUSE NEW YORK. IF THE DISTANCE IS TOO GREAT, I WILL BE WILLING TO PAY TO HAVE IT SHIPPED. MY EMAIL ADDRESS IS [email protected]

I AM LOOKING FOR A USED RAYTHEON V800 OR V700 FISH FINDER TO REPLACE MINE. THE SCREEN SEEMS TO BE GETTING BURNED OUT. THE TRANSDUCER IS NOT NEEDED

I AM LOOKING FOR A TANDEM AXLE TRAILER CAPABLE OF HAULING A 26FT THOMPSON. MUST BE ABLE TO HAUL 6000LB

IF THE BOAT IS OUT OF THE WATER, WITH THE ENGINE OFF, PUT IT IN GEAR. TURN THE PROP BY HAND. IT SHOULD ENGAGE IN ONE DIRECTION. IF IT DOES, YOU MORE THAN LIKELY SPUN THE COUPLER. YES YOU DO HAVE TO PULL THE ENGINE, BUT IT IS ONLY A COUPLE HOUR JOB. TO EXPEDITE THE JOB, TAKE THE OUT DRIVE OFF. THE REST IS FAIRLY EASY FOR ANY MECHANIC. THE COUPLER IS ATTACHED TO THE FLYWHEEL WITH THREE BOLTS. FROM START TO FINISH THE JOB SHOULD TAKE LESS THAN FOUR HOURS. DON'T FORGET TO GREASE THE NEW COUPLER.

Try cleaning the transducer. If it gets covered with algae it loses the ability to function properly.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN BUY A MOLD FOR THE 13LB TORPEDO WEIGHTS?

I have been using 150# mono for years and I like the way the releases slide down easily. It should be much cheaper than Power Pro.

Is the boat sold or do you still have it?

For Sale ; Walker Strike Vision Camera/Downrigger. This unit easily hooks up to most any small TV, portable DVD or TV/VCR. It allows you to watch your lure and see what it is doing. Are you going too fast, too slow or just right. You can actually watch a fish come up and look your lure over or even strike it. The unit is all one. It even disconnects the camera when the rigger is brought up. It's almost kid proof. It has a two foot beam and auto stop. If interested I can supply photos. Price $600.00

plus shipping.

$1000 range and don't care on finish

I just repowered last year and was told by the engine builder that with the tolerances as close as they are now a days, the only breakin on the engine was put the idle at 1500rpm for 15 minutes in neutral to get a wear pattern on the cam. After that you are done with breakin. However, the same isn't true for the outdrive. The outdrive manufacturer want a ten hour breakin, varying the speeds every 20-30 minutes and nothing over 3/4 throttle for the full ten hours. They don't want the whole time to be trolling, instead vary the speed and burn some gas.

I am looking for a used boat trailer to accept a 26ft Thompson.
