    Evinrude foot control trolling motor

    I bought an older Evinrude Scout trolling motor. It works great, but does anyone know how to adjust the direction of the motor? Was wanting when the pedal is in the middle it goes straight? Not sure if I make the adjustments in teh foot control unit or where?

    Pyle stereo and stereo installation

    I know I have power to the radio, I tested the plug that goes into the reado and do have power. The fuse on the radio itself is also good. I don't have the radio in front of me, but think the constant power wire is yellow and the other wire I didn't use if for "power antenna". The radio says...

    Fish cooler

    I saw an article once where there was a PVC pipe through the top of the cooler and then a trap door on the cooler lid itself. Just drop the fish down the Pipe and into the cooler. Has anyone built anything like that or know of a site I can go to and get the directions?

    First Crawdad

    I have the same boat. A guy posted his crawdad remodel in here a year or two ago. He stripped his and put a floor in it. The main reason I haven't is weight. I have added removable seats, anchor reins, rod straps, and anchor cleats. Also bought storage compartments, made for canoes, that strap...

    Flat bottom or V bottom?

    Flat bottom or V bottom? I have a couple of small flat bottom boats now, but thinking of getting a 14 or 16 foot boat and doing a conversion. Not planning on putting a large motor, if any at first other than a trolling motor. I don't fish real large lakes. I was wondering what others would advise?
