    Windlass replacement bolts?

    Just call the vendor and have them send you 4 more bolts. Or ask them the specifications so you can get them locally. Using grade 5 or 8 would be steel bolts and that would be dissimilar metals and they will rust and corrode. You don't need to make them any stronger than what the factory...

    Forwardscan transducer

    I have 2 Garmin Panoptics on the back of my boat. A firsts generation and a second generation. They work great up to about 8 mph after that you couldn't respond fast enough to not hit what you are seeing. I had the first generation mounted to the transom and I have since moved it to a pole so if...

    GottaGo toilet

    Both the Air Head and the Natures Head are very good Quality and are probably worth what people pay for them. They seem to have a good reputation. This one looks it would work just fine. Probably cost them 20 or 30 bucks to make and they double there money. Cheap is just that cheap. There is...

    Fwd deck seat

    I know that would be illegal at Lake Powell, Flaming Gorge and Yellowstone. You can sit on the bow if you straddle one of the stanchions for the bow rail and don't block the view of the pilot. Also need to be at displacement speed. I'm not sure what other states would say.

    How to replace slant-back cockpit cover

    As far as the snaps go they make some that have a sharp nail sticking out of them. So you lay the new canvas on with the nails sticking through the canvas and that marks the spots where the new snaps go. If your going to make the top yourself you can buy pattern plastic from Sailrite.com ...

    Repowering a Tinnie

    I think you could go either way. You know I like Suzuki but, the lower gear ratio I think is less fuel efficient not by much. The hole shot will be better though. The Honda will be easier to get parts for. I just stock my own parts for the Suzuki. Here is the link to Suzuki's brochure looks like...

    3rd Downrigger mounting

    I have seen some mounted back by the stern cleats. Maybe one of the telescopic long arms so you can angle in to the center a little bit. I can just see me winding the cable around the prop that could be a problem. It might be a little hard to work with back there.

    Power inverter

    Outboard will charge an AGM ok but, it will not charge it to 100 percent. You would need to top it off once in a while with the correct charger. Lithium you would need to use a DC to DC charger because the low internal resistance they tend to burn up alternators. For your starting battery I...
