    I had similar problems with my 97 lund. Also has TaylorMade glass. It took me months of asking and begging to different companies. No help.... I couldn't even find a used one. I was able to make one with plexiglass. It turned out very nice. Dm me if you want some really helpful tricks. Sent from my SM-G991U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Tom, looks like my tutelage played off. I am far from a master but am ecstatic that I was able to help you figure them out. I would trade in that lake O trip you owe me for a couple of days like you had on Seneca. I will even cook dinner for you and the wife! I know she would love the company.

    I was thinking that the DEC might have an open season on those things. Does anyone know of a good recipe for them? Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    That is the best way to approach it. Rules of the road can be trumped by safety, common sense, and common courtesy. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Just my 2 cents that is probably worth less..... As a lifetime fisherman at 48 years young and also a 25 year teacher, I have seen things that would make your head spin. I have found that many things combine to cause the lack of accountability for one's actions. The entitlement comes at all ages. I found that size, attitude, money, job, or just how you were raised could give someone a false sense of entitlement. When it comes to others safety or we'll being, it is not their concern. Very selfish world we now live in. Be safe, look out for your fellow sportsman. Oh! almost forgot, someone from my hunting camp shot over my head while we were starting to push on a drive. He told told me it was my fault, I shouldn't have been there. He knew where I was. From Hill Street Blues: "Let's be careful out there." Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I am not sure what they use it for, but if the they use it for any type of research. It can be registered with a R V for "research vessel" with the name of the boat. When I lived in Maryland, the research boats I was on could register that way. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I was breaking off my 8 lb. Floro on the big ones. So I went with a 15 lb. Vanish floro and it works well. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Everything that everyone has said makes sense. Not saying me, but there are some very knowledgeable people on this thread that have thrown out some good points. Just gotta narrow it down. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I had some similar symptoms with my outboard a few years back. The high rpm carb needle was stuck. It got gummed up. I found "Deep Kreep" spray made by sea foam worked the best to break it up and clean it out. Get her hot, spray in the air intakes, shut her down, let it work, repeat. I use it at the end of each season now and have not had the symptoms since. Worth a try. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I am so pleased to hear that so many others feel as I do. I for one would not be out there supporting our local shops and visiting the lakes if not for this site. I am very busy with work and kids, so when I have the chance to get out I do not want it to be a waste of my tome and money. People like Iron Duke have made my quality of life, so much better for my family. We can enjoy the lakes together thanks to Mike. I for one do not post that much, I don't have a profile picture, and I am a huge "lurker". I live vicariously through all of the regulars and feel like I have known them all my life. I don't know what I would have done without the help. Sent from my SM-G900V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Good research Mike, you are exactly correct on the in house work. I had to send one of mine in about 10 years ago. I called customer service and they were awesome. I got a woman that was extremely nice and helpful, she got me to a service guy, we talked about it, sent it in, and they did the work and shipped it back very quickly. Much sooner than I ever thought it would take. Give them a call....can't hurt. Oh I almost forgot, the service guy they pulled off the floor to talk to me. I thought that was cool. I had motor problems so he walked me on how to remove the motor to pack it and send as so not to spend a ton on shipping. He was great!!! Joel
