    Country Dave’s Lowe 1752 modification/restoration project.

    Hey Dave I have a stupid question, I just got my pods in yesterday, and my wife told me there was two holes in them. After seeing your pics, I see what holes she is talking about. Why is there drain hole on the pods. I'm still offshore so I haven't got to see them yet.

    1648CC MOD

    Thank's Guys. That 70 pushes it around 45mph, which is insane for this litthe rig. I took it out last week and it fished really good. I can run in about 6 inches of water, only thing is I made a wrong turn and ended up in a dead end canal in only 6 inches of water, not good. I grabbed a big ole...

    1648CC MOD

    1648CC MOD We bought this boat a few months ago and it was in really rough shape. It's a commercial grade all weld that was setup for a tiller steered motor. It came with a 40hp Johnson tiller. We fish a lot in bayous and shallow water, so I made it into a mini bay boat. The only reason I...

    LED Light strips for night fishing - Now with Pictures!

    Man I can't wait to start my lighting project. I have a 1648 semi-v that I am tricking out to be a cool little redfish chaser. I'm thinking about getting some leds that are sumergable to mount under the water line and under the hull in a few places, but the ones that I find are very expensive.
