Outside black, inside khaki

Tremclad is good too, as long as you thin it out and put a few coats on. Car paint is a bit more durable and can also be rolled. For the jeep and the trailer though, its flat Olive Green. The boat will be done in Gloss black tremclad, the inside will be flat rolled on. Just killing time sprucing things up while I am waiting for the ice to melt.

Best paint by far is por15. It'll last forever. Other than that tremclad is actually very durable paint and if you think it mineral spirits and roll it on with a foam roller it'll come out awesome.

Gonna strip the trailer down clean up the little rusty bits, prime it and use the same paint from the car, I think I'll seal it though.

Haha that's nice.

I was wearing a lumberjacket... I used to live in port perry so I already had 3.

Good see people getting charged that should be. I know that last year on the opener of trout there were people fishing with minnows in the park. they were long gone by the time we realized what they were doing.

Yah, with only a 6 inches off tongue. I am not too worried about it. And being I tow it with a Jeep, I gotta be real careful anyway. Next job is to paint the trailer the same color as the jeep. I painted the TJ last weekend...

Here is a pic of the TJ, after the OG paint scheme. Only half done in the pic but you get the idea. Trailer is gonna go the same color.

Well I hooked up the motor and backed it in and wouldn't yah know it... literally like 3 inches from fitting in. I could just angle it but I wanna try and get it in... Not much room...

So here goes...

OH SO CLOSE!!!

Unbolted the chains, took off the lights, wiring harness and test allignment..

Time to cut...

Ahhh... gotta love the Rescue Bladea and recipriccating saw.. Goes through like butter... Almost cut the harness.

Test fit before I bolt it down..

Move the wheel thingy back, Drilled some holes, Bolted it all back up...

All done...

Very happy. Saved me from buying the hinge do hickey. If it was like a foot off I wolda got the hinge, but only a few inches.. just not worth it.

Just paint your boat flamingo Pink camo. Noone will steal it.

wow symtre's for 69? Thats a great deal. They are excellent reel's. I have 3 of them, as well as some stradics and I like them as much as the stradics.

Excellent info. I have often wondered how they got 589LB 4 person capacity for my Boat.

If I took 3 of my friends fishing with me, I would most definately be over the limit.

Avereage height of 5'8" BMI of 150pds, times 4 people is 600 pds....now the typical american at 5'8" is likely 225 pds. Add a few Ultra Super Biggie Wendy's burgers and now your boat only holds 2 people.

Why not just have a weight rating, rather than a person rating. 2 adults and 3 kids in a 14 footer may be fine but 3 big fat dudes may sink it.

There is room for the tongue to fold out of the way as the tounge is fairly long past the A arm where it hooks up to the trailer.I too have a short armed utility and its a pita. I can back it up np but other that have tried curse and swear. Still undecided as to what I am going to do. I am going to hook up the motor to the boat this weekend and see how much I need to lose. If its within 12 inches I think I'll just cut it off. Part of the other thing is I can't let the A arm get too close to the jeep, as I have a 31" tire on the back and plans for 35's so I need to keep enough room to be able to use the cranky.

A friend of mine hooked up a cow fence shocker to his trailer after it got stole twice in a year. He came home one day to a van hooked up to it with fried electrical. The van was stolen for the purpose of stealing stuff.

Thought about that but I am a bit worried about the tongue being too short and affecting the ride of the trailer. Plus the shorter I can make it the less of a shin whacker it'll be.

I can do all the welding, cutting, drilling no problem. I was thinking of just looking for a sleeve to go over the 3x3 tube, but not sure how easy it would be to find one. For 75 bucks the hinge is all I need. I only need to shave off half a foot to fit the 16' lund with motor inside the garage. This would save me so much headache come summer time if I could just back it in pull a pin and fold the tongue away. Right now she is all wintered up and tucked in with the motor off and it fits with about a foot and a half from tongu to door.

PM me your info so you can send me those plans you have I wouldn't mind seeing what you had in mind.

Does anyone know where in Ontario u can pick up a folding hitch kit? I know they sell them online but has anyone seen them at any stores? Was gonna put one on.

I am not sure anyone here would say its safe. However I have a 16' lund and I bring a portable barbeque on mine and just set it up on the front casting deck and bbq all the time. Not even sure if thats legal or not.... maybe I should look into the legality of it.

I had a beagle that would eat its own poop... It ate McNugget from Mcdonalds and barfed for hours.

I encased my bosses desk inside of a cubicle inside of his office today. I hope he doesn't call in sick..

Just wounding what happened to bass pro? I was at the sale yesterday and many of the sale prices were still higher than the regular price at other prices? I did drop 80 buck on some plastics an what not. I regret some of the things though as they're still cheaper at ctc even. Like the live target frog I bought for 11.49 is 10.99 at ctc. I know 50 cents. But cheaper is cheaper. I don't mind paying more for device but I don't think anyone goes to bps for service... This isn't a knock bass pro thread. Just a head up..

Nothin left for spinner baits.

You can buy it, but you can't touch it. if you go to buffalo there are a number of dealers that will drive it to the border for you for a fee.

: )

Any spinner baits left. I thought this sale was tomorow. crap.

Now a sabre loss tonight would be awesome.
