When will the website be up and running? Every time I go to a store they never have what I am looking for. It is nice to order online and also have the capability to view all of the products available. This time I am buying in advance over the winter instead of last minute at a store. They seem to sell out. Thanks

I would like to know the same thing. Spent quite a while trying to figure it out and also sent a email to the webmaster a while back.

Reduced to $7500, would like to sell this year.

In my contracts, it is written the delinquent party is responsible for all collection cost AND any attorney fees that we incur for the purpose of recovery.

That must of been the fish we lost on Sun.

My net broke clean off of the handle on Sun. trying to get a 24 pounder in the boat. Didn't have a spare so we were screwed and had to hand grab the others. A friend that is fishing in Manistee also broke his net on a 30 lb Salmon on the same day. (Yesterday)

I have a 18foot boat, just never been to the area looking for places to avoid etc.

Didn't realize that. I will sign up.

I am selling my boat and in the Boat for sale section, it is says I do not have permission to make a listing. Does any moderators know why?

Thank you

Jason

Thank you, I will change it.

I just noticed a yellow hose that goes from the carburetor to the mechanical fuel pump is disconnected at the fuel pump. I have no idea how long this has been off. What is it for and will it do any damage to the motor?

The reason I noticed is because during my last outing, when I put the boat in neutral in low RPM it would stall. (once) So I was looking to change the spark plugs and saw the end of the yellow hose was disconnected. About half way from the pump to the carburetor there is a piece of black junk in the hose, I imagine that could create some kind of blockage? It is a 86' 19' Starcraft islander with a 2.5 litre OMC.

Wow, nice boat!

Wow, nice fat one.

I was so into the reading, I stayed up until 1 am last night. It was like a good book I couldn't put down. So many little tid bit's of information to look for the little things that may turn in into a big problem or that may have resulted from a big problem else where.

Just got off the phone with Mark and he doesn't typically go that far this time of year, but after I look at the boat on Sat. and if I am satisfied with it, we might be able to work out a time. Thanks for the referrals.

Thanks Matt I will give Mark a call. Wasn't sure if he traveled that far.

The guy to see is John Watson, formerly a DNR inspection officer, he is very thorough, and makes a great surveyor, he works hard for the pay too, I mean very hard too. What's the rate for this boat from Mark? I think Watson was about $300, last I knew.

Ed,

I am looking to have a boat surveyed in Ludington and called John Watson. His voicemail said he is out of commission (temporarily) due to a hip surgery. Would you know of another surveyor in the area? If not would you know someone with experience that could tag along, while I am looking at the boat?

So far since I am unable to find a surveyor in the area, I have been doing a lot of reading online and found this interesting article. http://www.pcmarinesurveys.com/Marine%20Survey%20101.htm

Neat! Always like watching that.

sold her jason

Just wondering because I am in the market for a bigger boat and will be listing mine shortly.

What are you going to do with your old boat?

Here is some links to other threads discussing some considerations.
