On the trailer coupler, when you push the latch down, you will see a hole that you can put a padlock through, do it! Then depending what type of hitch you have on your car/truck, the 2" x 2" draw bar and ball has a 1/2" or 5/8" pin that goes through it, there are models available you can replace with a locking version. At least it will keep the slow crooks from stealing the trailer from you when your on the water or at home. Cehck eith at Princess Auto or CTC for the type of locks you need. At least if some unscroupulous cretin takes it, you can tell the insurance thugs you went and put forth the extra effort.

Not so much launch etiquette, but a peace of mind item, don't forget to lock your coupler to the hitch head and lock the draw bar with ball to the receiver tube. There have been times when people come back from a days outing to find their trailer gone, along with the drawbar. That makes it a real problem dragging the boat down the road.

What about the issue of replacing the floatation foam from the center seat. Like Wayne said about the center seat structural replacement, an aquaintance I know only removed part of the center seat and ended up having major stress cracks due to the extra flexing of the hull in that area. I wonder how much the total cost of the material is going to be. Good luck.

I don't know why you have to prop the oven door open when every oven has a vent at the top, usually located in the middle of the left rear burner on the old ring type elements or at the rear for solid top ranges.

1, no comment other than I find it's usually a bunch of guys that can't speak the Queens english very well that give the movie its badness. 2. DST was brought about by the lazy sots that can't get up with the sun in the summertime and go to bed when it gets dark out. 3. You have a point there. 4. Yes, I am. 5. I just look forward to the cake. 6. I would call it obsessions and mental illness. 7. Time for the shotgun, can you clear the gate before I load, crank one up the tube and let 'er fly? 8. I would rephrase that to something what the Army(Gov't) is very good at... reorganizing...again 9. Yes. 10. Oh ya, or a bunch of saturday morning door knockers that need to do their annual PT test while I'm loading up Betsy.. 11. A lot of bosses should not confuse their careers with my life. 12. Yes. 13. Sometimes. 14. Or is terminally ill anyway. 15. True friends will be sitting beside you in jail when you get caught. 16. I don't know about that one, I'll just hold up the bar.

Interesting article to say the least. My take on this, quit producing 300+HP cars and trucks and make the damm things go twice as far on a litre of gas instead. There isn't a highway anywhere around here that amount of power is required to keep a vehicle runnign at 110/120km/h, it can be easily done with half the power, it wasn't all so long ago, most vehicles were running no more than 150HP and could easily do 140+. But, as long as the ameri (Tim Allen) way of thinking is alive, it won't happen.

I think that may be a good choice, I took a quick spin into Barrie Costco, 3 models with Honda motors, 2 stainless and a Lawnboy with a Honda motor. Not impressed at all with the stainless models, flipped one end up to look under, if that deck was any thinner I'd swear it used to be a sardine can stretched out. I could flex the deck metal by hand, no effort. Surprising that Honda let them put their motor on that. The Lawnboy model does not have the offset front wheels either. I'm getting mine from Sears.

Okay: "and if you ask nice l will tell you how to get rid of grubs with out pesticides. hehehehehehe",, please please please, how do you get rid of the grubs...without sending over the skunks and racoons to do the job?

bowshep: Any particular brand of organic fertilizer you recommend?

If you're interested, check the Sears.ca site, they have honda powered models on sale until June. 5.5 and 6.5 hp. I have one coming soon, rear bagger, rear drive.

I think one of the utmost important thing that should be stressed when it comes to hunting is knowing what you're going to kill or shoot at. The last time I wanted to scout the Minising swamp, 6-7 years ago, the CO stopped me and asked if I knew where I was going, sure up to the iron bridge, bad move it's full of a particular ethnic group. One twig cracks and world war 3 erupts. If you don't see and look what your shooting at, then maybe you should wear ear plugs so you can't hear it either.

Well the last time I saw one in operation was when my wife was pregnant, so guess what, get preg...naw never mind. They do work well, mom was in the hospital 6 months ago, blood clot behind the knee, sa it one the scope, the tech there was quite good with the transducer, explained thing quite well.

I swear up and down I was having a deja vu on this topic and a bunch of us gave you some answers, pretty specific, soooooo, I did search and voila: http://www.ofncommunity.com/forums/index.p...hl=lambert+park

Oh ya, very good, no added growth hormones, antibiotics, or any of the other stuff they force feed store turkeys.

I take offense to that comment, I could say that maybe you're **, but I didn't, I just thought the thought to myself. The unfortunate thing is you don't get the turkey tag without the course.

And if it doesn't have a visible beard, then don't shoot at it, never mind even looking at it.

Ya, not a bad seminar, and I liked the one statement, if it wasn't for the stupid ones out there, the MNR wouldn't have a job. Next trip to BPS, maybe go look for a call or two.

I tell you what, if some dude kicks you in the shin and can run faster than you, then it might have been me. Might see ya there.

These heaters have been around since the dark ages in Europe, I remember the two at my Aunts place, one in the kitchen and the other in the bathroom. No wasting hot water there, and no wasting the heating resource keeping a 40-60 gallon water heater hot all day and night for nothing. You don't leave your oven or stove on all day, so why do it with a water heater. I would have got one a couple years back, unfortunately I couldn't find anyone willing to be the first local PGF to hook it up.

So far, couldn't find anything on internal motor fuses other than on 110V or larger for thermal shut off. Use 12 or 14 ga, whats the problem, check the chart:http://www.powerstream.com/Wire_Size.htm and after checking amp draw for the following associated weights, 5 amp for a 10lb weight, 8 amp for a 15lb weight and 11 amps for a 20 lb weight. I think the average weight used is about 10-12lb, so whats the issue with the booster cable sized wire. No fire on my boat. No not licenced, just followed the instructions on what to use for wire when I did mine.

Kindly tell us where the internal fuse is located on all motors, I'm just waiting to see this. Like Tybo our master Mech said, 12-14 ga wire is sufficient.

You have to start a new topic and then click right under the title.

12-14 awg is sufficient, and using a simple 110v grounded plug will prevent you from plugging it in the wrong way.
