But obviously my signature has a mind of its own, it must be semi-retired. Vern

So does mine!! Vern

Yesterday was Saturday and tomorrow is Saturday so today has got to be Saturday! At least you can console yourself with the fact I'm old & the pay sucks! Vern

I used to have a lot of side to side shifting even with straps cinched down tight to the aft corners of the trailer. I never liked the side loading guides as they only gave a general location of center & was always backing back in the water to try again. I removed, shortened , rebent &...

Recently, a friend bought a boat with an elite 5 gps with navionics chart. He was completely baffled by it & thought that I could teach him how to use it as I have a lowrance 3500c with navionics chart. I took his instruction book home with me to read. Waste of time! The instruction book is a...

Hi kids! That salt water is a love/hate thing! Salt water has been berry, berry good to me but it certainly has a nasty, vicious, unforgiving nature for an old flatlander like myself. It's truly wonderful retiring to the north coast but my ass crack is even starting to rust. I can't complain...

You would think that if a light were bad it would stay bad but they seem to be taking turns. For a ground I used 10 guage & the only place the wire was cut was where one joins the other at the wishbone on the tongue. The trailer isn't being used as part of the grounding system. The ground wire...

Trailer lights are making me nuts, granted I didn't have far to go! Decided to switch from incandesants to led. Thought that would solve constant problems. WRONG!! First I put in a new harness with butt connections. Results were poor as some worked and some didn't. Got a new harness & soldered...

I put the trolling motor off my old fly fishing pram on my transom. Took it off again, it REALLY didn't like the salt water

I have the salt water king trailer. It has been ok. Not overly pleased with the plastic fenders tho. When heated by the sun, one folded up quicker than a Chinese circus & dumped the little woman flat on her back in the gutter. Boy was I hot over that! Didn't care for the guide ons so I shortened...

That truly is a great find! Thank you Rodger for the post. Mine on order too! Vern

Doug, I think we very well may be closely related. Vern

I found water in my perko nav lights also. Pulled them & found the rubber seals were dried out & cracked. I had a tube of "Big Stretch" made by Sashco & purchased at Ace hardware that I use around the house for many sealing jobs. I wiped down the cracked seals with lacquer thinner & laid a thin...

Thank you boys! The problem must have been with the connectors. I gave them a cleaning the other day and today on the water it worked flawlessly. Ill take a look at that Garmin tho. Vern

Hi kids! I have a lowrance 3500c plotter that came with the C-Dog. It was probably purchased new by the previous owner in 2005. The last time out it decided not to leave a trail until I was 2 miles out. Went out 5 miles to troll for salmon & it Worked fine as usual until I was back to within 1...

I use silicone spray. Vern

I used 3m 5200. Vern

Thanks again kids! I'm on track now. Happy trails! Vern

Thank you kids, I think the EZ steer is what I'll go with. Vern

Hi kids! I changed from cable steering to hydraulic a few months ago.Once it was done I realized my tie bar won't work anymore. With cable, the tie bar connected to the rod that went thru the tilt tube & gave me straight line left to right movement to operate the kicker. Now I have movement in...
