going to buy a new boat this year and have some questions that I hope someone can help me with. Iam looking at a Lowe Roughneck big river 1860. Does anyone have one of these? Wondering if they are a good quality? I keep my boats for at least 10 years or longer and was wondering about...

My Buddy got my trailer done, He welded in four new 3-inch channel beams after he straightened the frame he told me that it is 5/8 of an inch out of square and that everything looks good. So now time to start prepping it for paint and a little bit of pinstriping. will try to take before and...

Thank you for the information. Sorry no pictures, the rear crossmember has a piece of thin channel welded to the side rails. the crossmember is bent out and torn about a third of the way up it. I am going to have it straightend and the crossmember cut out and a new piece of channel welded in...

I have a trailer that is slightly bent. it looks as if the previous owner had hooked a parking curb or something and then they pulled it forward and looks as if the trailer has been bent inwards. I measured the front of it after the tongue and then measured the very back of it, it measures...

Back when I was a kid I knew an older gentleman that taught his grandkids how to ski behind an old semi v jon boat with a small outboard. That is why i asked this question. Thank you for the replies.

Hello everyone. My wife and daughter have decided that they would like to try tubing. So I have a couple of questions, first off the boat that I have is a G3 1544 flat bottom with a 25 hp Yamaha. So my questions are if I were to do this would I put enough strain on the transom to tear it up...

Thank you for the help I will try the fuel pump test.

Went fishing today and my motor ran good going to the fishing area also idled around the area good. But on the way back to the ramp it ran like it was not getting enough fuel and it would not get on plane even after I squeezed the primer bulb. The primer bulb was not hard and I squeezed it twice...

Did you put a backing plate under the deck to help strengthen it and keep the bolts from pulling through or just use big fender washers?

Thanks for the idea of flashlight and mirror. never thought about that. I will be sitting to so no need to cut holes.

Getting ready to mount a foot controlled trolling motor to the bow of my jon boat and would like to find out if there is wood under the small deck? I am planning on using 2 pieces of wood sandwiched together for the top and through bolting everything. Would this work okay?

Yes the boat is sitting on the trailer, and I don't think I can use a pin pedestal because of the livewell in the bench.

I have a G3 1544 jon boat and have been wanting to put a foot controlled trolling motor on the front of it, it has just the regular front deck on it. If I put a foot controlled motor on it the control is at a weird angle due to the floor sloping down and would not be comfortable at all, It...

I have decided to put a flat floor in my john boat. It is a G3 1544, I have been looking at aluminum for the floor and was wondering what thickness would be good. I am planning on putting foam board under it and covering it with some type of flooring but not carpet. Would .035" work or should...
