  1. I guess I should elaborate. At no time did I feel we were endangering anybody. All eyes were on deck and we could see plenty far enough to react to the boats we did come upon. Just know that when guys are fishing and may have a lot of gear in the water the appearance of my proximity may be close and I didn't want to leave a bad taste with anybody. I always try to give plenty of way whether I am trolling or running along. Some of you are reading way too far into the situation. If I felt I was endangering anybody I would have had it towed in.

  2. Well that idiot was me guys. I just wanted to apologize if we got close to you at those speeds. Going along out about the trench and the motor quits. We had the float get stuck wide open on my carb. So after pinching the fuel line off and getting the carb to dry out we were able to get the boat started again. The only way we could keep it running was wide open. To keep it from flooding out we had to burn the gas as fast as it was coming in. And right on Q that ridiculous fog rolls in. So away we go running along way too fast and I know we got too close to a couple boats. So I just wanted you guys to know I'm not a total idiot and apologize. There was a good reason.

  3. I am looking for opinions on what horse power four stroke kicker motor I need to push a Penn Yan 265. Also I have heard that one can mount a kicker on the boat and lock it straight and use the boats keel to steer, anyone done this with success?
