    $4000

    You can buy a brand new 25hp etec for that price, catch the right promotion and you might get an extended warranty free (5 years compared to 3), I believe right now they are having a free rigging program. You could pick up a new old stock and save even more money, My motor was less than 4000...

    16ft Lowe Big Jon Hull Question

    Question about dent removal on round rails

    Aluminum unlike steel doesnt have memory, Johnny has a great idea with drilling a hole on the backside and tapping it out a little at a time, you may still need something to smooth out the topside..there are aluminum body fillers that would work if you plan on painting the rail afterwards..

    Your bottom feeder status??

    Dunno if it counts but decided to stop in goodwill (next to harbor freight over here) and ended up finding an ice chest for 9$, Not a bad deal considering I always forget to dump the fish carcasses after cleaning :shock:

    pretty sure you can get them at wal-mart or academy if you have that nearby, The previous owner of my trailer welded one onto the tongue and its proven very useful...as for step space, my trailer was originally for a larger boat so i dont have that problem..

    Crossover Boats?

    Like these guys said "gheenoe" was the first thing that popped into my head...BassBlaster may be onto something too, Check out those plastic "Pelican" boats...I believe you could also find a plastic dinghy that would fit in the back of your truck too..
