Ok so I started my engine for just a minute to warm it up before changing the fluid in the lower unit. So I shut it off and open the drain plug. First thing that comes pouring out is water. Then thick sludge crap. I am not a rocket scientist but I got a feeling this aint good. Anyhow here are...

Since the kids will be grabbing jugs on the front. Is it ok to put the trolling motor on the back? That way I can control where the boat is going while chasing jugs.

So the boat I have is a camo paint. I want to sand it down and repaint the hull. What is the process? Do I have to strip the paint with a paint stripper? Also what kind of paint. Will Valspar outdoor be ok? What kind of primer will i need? It is an aluminum boat. Thanks

Traded for this 14 footer. Not sure what kind it is but it is about to be modified. Been lurking around here for a couple weeks and now I am ready to start. This will be a Jug fishing Mod. I may do a little hybrid fishing from time to time but I am creating a jug fishing boat. Just what I am...
