Sounds like your steering cable needs to be replaced.

Seems like they've been working on that road for the last ten years.

Thats a tough one to put a price on. Hull is in great shape. Wiring should be as well unless mice got in and did a job on it. Motor sitting that long is a big question mark. Might want to talk to a few boat surveyors and get their opinion. Sounds like it could be a sweet deal though.

Yeah, like some of the guys already stated here. Rubbing compound and time. Wet sanding will probably cut some time out but I couldn't wrap my head around that so I just used a fast cut rubbing compound on the first trip around. Took me two days to do from rub rail down water line. But it did look new again.

Pap. Dont waste your time on this deal. Wasnt meant to be. Will keep my eyes open for what you seek.

Pap I got both. Pads are great when fishing and makes change ups easy

Was looking at the web sites for high seas and glp. Glp's prices are a bit cheaper.. Tony's service is great also.

I have a high seas rod holders on my boat. Slide in and out of berts tracks nicely and adjustable. Well built and less expensive than Great Lakes planers. GLP is a good product as well. Have a ten rod rocket launcher on my hardtop. Both products are similar in materials and construction. Happy with both products. Bought the high seas off of ebay at the time and price was too good too let pass.

If I was marking and catching fish on the inside I would stay there. My rule is never leave fish. Sure you will get many other opinions on this.

Yeah you should definitely pull it and replace. Stainless isnt USCG approved. Make sure you change fuel lines while its out. Not a cheap fix either unfortunately. Been there and did it.

I use a set of them. They work well to keep dipsey secured from bouncing all over the place and  messing up your wire.  They are a bit bulky though.

Yeah the Lady's been pissed alot lately. Lets just hope its not an omen for the upcoming season.

That's what I'm going to go back to doing.

Lol. Yeah you go with that.

You guys can debate this pink juice issue until the "cows come home."  I am forever done with it in my boat. First and last year for it.

Year?

Knew they wouldn't last.

My lowrance units interfere with each other when trying to use sonar on both at same. Just use the smaller( elite 5) strictly for GPS with the sonar function turned off. Cant give advice on any other units, but I guess they would if transducers have same frequency. Hope this helps.

Your tempting me to buy more off what I don't already need.  Nice assortment there!  Good deal for someone.

You may have problems with the head if you get speed but not temp. Might want to see if you can borrow someone else's to test your system.

You mentioned new parts everywhere, but have you closely inspected the coating on downrigger wire? Carefully check for bare or rubbed areas causing poor signal. Just inspecting on spool might not reveal problems. Just a thought.

More I read about your situation I am afraid to go poke my head under the wrap and look at mine.  This was the first year I ever used the pink juice, usually 50;50 antifreeze.

That is without a doubt one of the best videos I have ever seen.  Very nice..

Damn that sucks. Makes me rethink the pink juice use

Nice. Plenty of bait in those waters
