  1. If you are coming as far as Westfield NY, there are also some campers for sale by a used car dealer in Cassadaga NY, they are on Craigslist Chautauqua County. Seems that the RV industry never fully recovered from the 2008 recession and the public in general has not either and there are all kinds of what appear to be deals to be had out there, particularly on Craigslist.
  2. Thanks, I was told to send the reels I need fixed there. Good report.
  3. Additional information added to original post-3/23/14.
  4. Late summer/fall 2014, it will be across the street from the Galleria Mall off the Thruway in Cheektowaga.
  5. 2nd email concerning our phone conversation sent. thanks
  6. Have had 17, 18, and 19 aluminum boats in the past, may need to move some other stuff to adjust for a few things but you will be fine with that.
  7. It is a 2008 bought in 2012. Never had oil in it, never fired. So it is brand new with tag on it. I have the extended platinum transferable warranty to 2/2017. Has self contained tank so no need to mess with tapping in fuel line. Never used because a month later I bought a 9.9 four stroke plus I have a couple other small motors. $700.00 Located in Dunkirk, NY
  8. Sylvan/Starcraft/Smokercraft/Starweld or Alumacraft or Crestliner(shown above) or Princecraft or Lowe.
  9. Agreed, I have purchased used reels from Bill and I presume his boat was treated the same as the reels, top notch. And if you walked through any boat shows this winter, sticker shock in the form of the intensive labor costs associated with boat building, the cost of petroleum based fiberglass have sent prices skyward again.
  10. Putting this back up to the top and see what happens.
  11. You need to know what your transom height is. If it is 20 inch or long shaft for your main motor and there is room to mount the kicker on that same transom, you may be able to get away with a 15 inch kicker motor. I have a 19 Sea Nymph now and a 17 Starcraft before that, both with the 20 inch transom and mounted a standard shaft kicker on both. Send me a PM if you want to get into specifics.
  12. If there is a boat show in your area , go to it, it will give you ideas. In your price range with a little looking and some luck you probably can find yourself a decent 16 foot package and it will likely be aluminum. Some of the brands would be Crestliner, Lund, Sylvan, Smokecraft, Starcraft, Lowe, Tracker. A few of the older ones would be Sea Nymph, Grumman, Discovery.
  13. Thompsons are notorious for having stringers go bad. For most of the 80's and into the 90's, they were a company that was struggling financially so some corners were cut.
  14. Gets more and more difficult for the sponsors to get the bigger vendors that would fill the"other room" It was their first year, the venue is excellent, the parking is convenient and accessible etc, all things that help make a show. If they start now and get it in on the first round of calendars and vendors schedules when they are booking next year the main part of the event will fill in. LOTSA did a great job this year making the move.
  15. Glad to make the donation and support LOTSA efforts Mark Forbes Dunkirk Sports Outfitters, LLC.
