    Is this repairable?

    Photos could be better and clearer. If its just a mounting bracket then that can be replaced without having to replace the entire motor. It'll still cost that chick's insurance some major green for Marine Mechanic will have to disassemble the motor from the shaft then gut the damaged housing...

    Marine Gas has returned with a vengence

    Thank goodness that non-ethanol gas has started to pop up at various gas stations not just fish camps. It was announced in October 2013 that a WaWa was opening in Clermont, FL. I sent a email to Corporate and reminded them that this area was the Bass Capital of Central Florida with several...

    Looking for a fish/depth finder and would like some opinions

    I'm running with a Garmin 160C color monitor that I paid $160 for and its been good but still hard to find fish and determine structure. Then Hummibird came out with the 570DI for $299.00 and I've checked it out at Basspro and it beats Garmin 160C hands down. The DI or Down Imager is like a TV...

    1978 Monark 1654 Jon Boat

    Recently I purchased a 16 foot Jon boat for $900. I needed to upgrade because the 14 foot jon boat I was using was too small for me. The interior had a non-slip coating applied to it but I'd be tripping over the stringers so I chose to add a floor. I bought treated 2x4's and 3/8 inch plywood...
