... It's a federal law that any light on a vehicle/trailer that is mounted must be lit if it's supposed to be lit.....

Thanks for pointing that out Salty. I was afraid of something like that...the make-shift ones I have now come off in a second. I was thinking that iffin' that happened, I'd try the old.....

,,,"ya know occifer, the trailer lights do work,,,but today as I was getting ready to leave the house...they wouldn't come on...so I had prepared this set as a back-up,,,but I will be repairing the ones on the trailer...as these are just a back-up set".....

Hopefully that will buy me a warning, ...


but THANK YOU for bringing that up....I wasn't too sure on how that went.



3/4" Azek scrap I had lying around.......should outlast the light fixture anyways....LOL

Putting her to good use...

With the trailer lights under control, I was finally able to get this 70 yr. old dude onto some feisty 40" fish....The Non-STOP action provided hours of good fish being caught, tons of laughter, and a sore shoulder.....PRICELESS!!!, would be the best word to describe it.

She still fights me to stay at idle sometimes, but I always manage to get her fired back up. As promised Matt,,,,..."putting her to good use".

....for all the input on the skiff everyone.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
