The new trailer is the result of the dealership putting too light of a trailer under my boat, I bought the boat from a broker and they wanted $ 350.00 to drop it in my yard on stands so I figured I would just get a trailer from them and could tow home myself, once I hit the scale I was freaked out that I was only 20LBS under my total GVW with no fishing gear coolers,water,etc etc.
The motor was a 225 Ficht I had a lower gearcase go which was no big deal, although it took 4 weeks to get my boat back, and then I blew an injector which took another 4 weeks to get, the dealer milked it and I was boiling about my boat spending July/late august early september in the boat yard for easy @$$ repairs. I bought the new Zuke got 6 years warranty and told Evinrude they could kiss my @ss  |

YES definately need to get some fish parts all over her!! I am hoping for a nice day this weekend, would like to get out and jig up some cod somewhere. We gotta hook up soon, that vacation you have in May sounds intriguing will you be fishing for Striped Bass perhaps?? I hope you get good weather pray to calm wind gods. I was working down by the canal today and couldn't believe the wind  |
