BENNY

Just thought I would throw this out there for all: I havent posted too much but am on ever day. I am off from the 17th to the 23rd so I think I would like to drop in if all are welcome and put some faces to the posts.... I am in Sturgeon falls so I could probably just drive down everyday or boat in, however not to familiar with the west arm~~or what condition I would be in after all those pops and cough syrup : ) So maybe stay a night or two....lol Also if anyone is planning on going down early and wants to get out on other parts of Nipissing or into back lakes, just PM me and we can meet in Sturg and I can take peeps out pike/walleye not a musky guy but Im a quick learner .... I have a 1900 Lund PROV so can fit up to 5 peeps FYI. Let me know, Benny

Dont need to explain why I know or my area of expertise but you will soon realize what others are trying to tell you, once you get over the brain wash period. Been there Done that...... Good Luck with it.

I have to add Mr Clean Magic Eraser as well, I have not seen anything work better, still amazes me what it will take off. Alum,leather,vinyl etc.

Thanks everyone I will try Cabelas or Lebarons if they have it, CTC here Doesnt have them but I will figure somethin out just though I would ask. Thanks Again Benny

Looking for a couple different types of Blue Fox Vibrax... mailny the Double header and the Musky Bucks.. I see the classic ones on Lebarons site but no other ones....Double Header

How long did it take to get it shipped here? And I couldnt find what I need on the Lebarons site G

Just curious where people like to order from for various types of tackle, I need to order a couple specific things but was trying to avoid the states(Cabelas/Basspro/Ebay) and BassPro store is quite the drive for me. Anyone frequent any online sellers with fair prices and decent ship time within Canada/Ontario.

Wasnt lucky enough to get in through the lottery this year.... Oh well. Tis down to one day now too. First place is 2 360cc four wheelers I believe.

I'm goin out lookin for ride alongs ......

Ha, you would have to ask Tucker... He is partial to driving. Also he is older now since that picture another years experience ; )

Not sure how many people check the Hook - Up section but if anyone is able to get out on Nipissing next week check the Hook- up section and PM me, Thanks Benny

Qustion was answered thanks workwear! Benny

I bought this boat this spring and have a couple questions about it to anyone who owns one similar. More specifically the live well and bait well system. Cand find the answer in the owners manual, Please PM me if you can help. Thanks in Advance Benny

Not sure if anyone will have any suggestions but thought I would try... I put my new boat in the water on the weekend, well new to me its a 2003. The issue I ran into was once the boat was in the water the elec trim for my T8 yamaha kicker wouldnt work. It worked in the driveway when tested but has since stopped. I was able to get it up manually but havent been able to get it to work since. Battery is fine and all fuses fine so just wondering if anyone has even ran into anything like this and if so and thoughts on what it could be. I am new to the boat ownership thing and unfortunately dont know a whole lot about these things. So any thoughts are appreciated. I figure I will have to bring it in but thought if there were any thongs I could try it would be worth it.... I just dont know what it could be as it worked fine until the weekend then just stopped...... Thanks in advance, Benny

Anytime Icefisherman, Not sure where your from but if your ever up North Bay way let me know I will put us on em' Benny

Boat Border Crossing

LOL your right there I guess huh. The reefs I will be on are in about 27' of water though ; )

Ya no doubt I will be hitting the reefs on Nipissing this summer more than I normally get to.... Lots of fish frys lol

To be honest it was riduculous how easy it was... I feel stupid for looking into it as much as I did. We crossed at Fort Erie and the girl we had wanted to go on her lunch so she rushed through it. She didnt even ask for the TITLES!! or the BIIL OF SALE for the boat. She needed the bill of sale for the trailer to fill out the form 1 but that was it. I could have said I paid 5,000 for the boat they didnt even look at the boat or search it lol. It depends who you get but all you need for sure is the bill of sale for boat and trailer seperatly and also the titles for both as well signed over to you. In and out in 10 min. You pay PST and GST on boat right there at the border and only GST on the trailer, you pay the PST on trailer when you register in in Canada. If you ever have any questions let me know I have er down to a science now lol. Benny

So I went and picked up my boat in the US and now have it in my drive way. 2003 Lund 1900 ProV SE IFS. 200 Yammy with an 8 hp yammy kicker. Very easy to do and would do it again. Special thanks to Icefisherman,Krisco,eyefish and gerritt for all the questions they helped me out with and to everyone else who helped out in different posts. I will try and put some pics on if I can get it to work..... Benny

Been there, doesnt seem to address this issue however unless I am missing it. Thanks though

I know I have asked a few questions about this topic and thought I had it all down pat with the websites I have been on but recently I was told that I need the titles (ownerships) for the boat and trailer in my name prior to getting to the border? I thought this was true for a new boat but does this apply for a used boat. I thought the selelr jsut signed them over to me and I brought those with the bill of sale into Ont and then got it changed over to my name. To anyone that has bought a used boat in the US which is the correct way. I am heading down next week to pick it up so hoping to get this cleared up. I will call CBSA but just though I would ask someone who has actually been through it. Sorry for all the bugging on this topic but I always get the best info here. Thanks again guys Benny

Thanks, it was more of a curiosity question as he has all the manuals, I just thought I would ask as I knew someone on here would know.

Thanks guys its on a boat I am picking up from the US finally found one. Its a 200 Yammy 4 stroke 2003 so already broken in.

When it comes to changing the oil in a four stoke outboard how often should this be done? Does it depend on the size and or make of the engine? Thanks
