Went Salmon fishing early this morning in the rain, caught this 10# plus Atlantic Salmon. Do they ever jump and fight. Was great fun. Tug http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... 1967-1.jpg

That is correct , there are vertical cables closely spaced where the boats lines slide up or down the cables. I think that both procedures you mentioned would work. The Lock Master told me that he raises and lowers the lock slowly so there is less turbulence . A single rope at the mid-ship...

It is probably best if I bring an additional person with me during my first trip, that way I will be able to see how things go. Thanks for you replies. Tug

It gives the depth of the lock as 44 feet, I am not sure if this is the rise and drop or just the total depth of the empty lock. Tug

Sometime this week I will be making my 1st transition though the Lock where i live. I was talking to the Lock Master and watched a couple of boats lock through but there was a few people on board manning the ropes,he said there was nothing to it. Here's my question: as I will be locking thru...

I tried thickened epoxy on the first hole and it didn't work out.. I guess it was too thick and than ended up putting untreated epoxy in the holes. .Thanks Tug

I brought my boat home from the marina early this morning a drilled 9 core samples with a 3/8" drill about 3/8 of an inch deep. I may add that these pictures are not the best. http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... 0_1932.jpg http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... 0_1930.jpg...

I am going to bring the boat home in the next few days and drill a few holes to get a better idea , if there is not too much water damage I might just go ahead and do the repairs now. Thanks Tug

If I need to replace a larger section of the cockpit, does anyone know exactly what the original floors dimensions were on a 1985...like was it one inch of plywood sandwiched between 1/4 inch ?? of fiberglass cloth. I probably will not be able to determine any dimensions by taking a small...

Thanks for all the advise , I will post pictures of my repair process . Tug.

I went over the floor today inch by inch and found 3 probable soft spots , ( each about 3x3 inch in diameter ).one in the cabin and 2 in the cockpit. These will probably be larger after I cut back to dry material, I am reluctant to start the repair because repair materials are not easily...

Joe , if that is the case I can just cut out the area around the screw holes if it is wet underneath and replace with a piece of marine plywood encased with epoxy. Thanks Tug

Does my 1985 Classic Angler have a balsa or plywood floor, i did a search but was unable to determine whether it was plywood or balsa or a combination of the two. If needed, i might repair a small area where there were once some screw holes and was not sure if the floor was plywood or balsa.

If I ever repower I would go with the Yam F90 , second choice Suzuki.DF 90. Both are very reliable and look great to.
