    Pump bearing grease hose

    My jet pump bearing grease hose has hole in it, should i just order one from outboard jets or is there something I can buy at local part store that I can replace it with. I'd just order from outboard jets but they will not sell direct, at least they have never when i've called them before so...

    Floor material options ?

    perforated aluminum floor is what i've got also but I think it would be a little late for that option. water and dirt just go throught it and to bottom of boat and come out drain plug. i've got my front deck painted durabak and its not very hot. is aluminum up under and its painted a sand color...

    Outboard jet and side imaging

    I"ve seen those mag mounts, be nice it would work through a boat transom but that is alot to ask. Could use the bolt on one but would defeat purpose as many holes as got to drill so i'm going to use cutting board material i think. That way have plenty of room for adjustment. Just hope these new...

    Outboard jet and side imaging

    Got a new side imaging depth finder, after reading instructions and watching some install videos I am worried that a side imaging unit may not work with my jet.

    Floatation pod weight offset

    mainly river fish with an occasional lake trip but its not terrible out there. no option on moving weight back around as gas tank is mounted under deck and nowhere in back to put batteries or bait tank. probably best to leave it like it is because i did some measuring and looks like only have...

    Non slip painted floor in a tin boat

    durabak is some good stuff, put it on my front deck of my boat about 8 years ago and still holding strong with no slip. cant find any that has peeled up. all about prep. its personal opinion but i love to just be able to wash it down and have it dry quick. with carpet you get it wet its there...

    Float Pod Install

    where did you get your pods from? may be overlooking it. i have talked with beavertail about install in this situation and they said it was ok to raise them up about an inch off the bottom of the boat and this would clear the drain plugs. my only other issue is finding somewhere to install my...
