Wayne, the left signal lite IS WORKING fine... The brake light is NOT working although they both use THE SAME YELLOW CABLE. This makes me think I have perfect ground....otherwise the signal light will not be working at all, right? Cheers, Ice Fisherman

OK hope this helps: This is the trailer connector. Here is the plastic insert/plate holding all the bulb/wires: This is the left side Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Guys do you want me to go and take pictures of the left plastic plate holding all the wires/bulbs at the back of the trailer? If it helps you I can post the picture. Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Nissan Pathfinder. Brake signal is fine out of the truck, fine on the right side as well. Cheers, Ice Fisherman

But Terry, if the grouns is the problem, why do the running light and turn signal on the SAME LEFT side work fine? Gerrit, my electrician friend spent 1 hour this afternnon with the volt meter in hand and couldn't figure it out.... Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Precisely Bernie....and since the left side is the problem one, the yellow wire is the one in question as it does turn and stop for the elft. The strange thing is, the turn works fine(while using the SAME yellow wire), and both bulb elements inside the bulb work fine when turn signal or running lights are on.......just that for some reason pushing the brake pedal does NOT send electric signal to the bulb....the same bulb that works otherwise with turn signal and running lights, over the same Yellow wire that carries fine the turn signal but does not want to carry the brake signal..........drives me CREASYYYYYYYY!!!! Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Appreciate your kind offer Clif but I am in Georgetown. May have to use the service of someone who knows those things very well though and is close to me as I don't know what else I can do to fix it....spent two days ask three other people.....nothing.... Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Terry sure is correct on what color is what. But now.....if it is ground problem....why would the right brake light working and the left does not? And also....same bulb also serves as running light and turn signal - both those are working fine....so how come the same left ball works fine when turn signal and the running lights are on but doesn't work when I press the brake pedal?!? Cheers, Ice Fisherman

I've discovered last night one(left) brake light on my trailer doesn't work. The right one is working fine. All the other lights - running, turn signal are working fine also. Bulb is fine, I've changed the right with the left bulb - same problem. My trailer is from the US and has not 4 but 6 wires coming out of the plug - 3 to the right (green, brown, white) and three to the left (yellow, brown, white). It seems the yellow wire on the left carries the turn signal AND (?!?) the brake signal. My neighbor came look at it could not figure it out and he is playing with cars for hobby and know somewhat about wiring. My other neighbor came, he is electrician, also could not figure it out. It doesn't make much sense that one brake light is working and the other is not and the bulb is OK. Can anyone come up with solution how to resolve this? Don't want to replace all the wiring again. Just did it on my old boat trailer before selling it last year. I'd like to avoid the exercise if I could. Thank you. Chers, Ice Fisherman

Thanks Doug. Lake O. - any time you are ready Bud. Just as I told you before. Algonquin - well you'll be there few months ahead of me. Please tell those lakers there to get bigger fast as I'll be coming to see them again in August Have a good time on in the park Doug. Love that Opeongo fishing/camping! Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Just bought it today and used it for the first time. Both fish got caught on it. Well spent $11,99 + tax Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Well, after a loooong preparation the boat was on the water today at 2pm and did perform great. What a nice machine I've got, waooo... LOVE IT!!! All components and aftermarket equipment worked great, motors were solid. Got 55Mph top speed, plained in about 3 seconds And the kicker didn't burn any gas for the few hours of trolling. Steering arm, fuel filter, all worked fine. And guess what...I even got some fish ha ha ha... The nice King was so impatient it didn't wait for me to put the rod in the rod holder after releasing my lead core and bammm fish on.... Later on the laker got hooked on the same rod/lure... Here are few pictures of the action today: 14 Lbs King. 11 Lbs Laker Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Got all the Bert's tackle stuff at the same time on a super good deal. http://www.tr-1salesofmichigan.com/berts-custom-tackle.html Very high quality stuff and top customer service and price. You can PM me and I can fill you in on the details but you'd love the deal and the product. Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Thanks Don! The originall owner traded it in at a dealership and bought a pontoone then I bought the Lund from the dealer. I have the owners phone number on some of the paperwork but when calling it says "not in service". I am thinking though since there is no places to attach the windows on along the gun well and windshield maybe there were not any windows with the boat.... Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Pictures are not a problem Gerritt. I can send him as many as he needs. Does the guy know you? Should I mention your good name as refferal? Wayne, do you think this is orriginal Lund top? I folded it now but at the back of it inside a plastic bag there was some paperwork with name of the top manufacturer I thought. I forgot what the name was but somewhere in Florida I think and it didn't say Lund on the papers...?!? By the way windows are not the only things missing from the previous owner - the front conversion deck (this is the small rectangular piece of wood in the front that holds the fron seat when you need to move it to the bow) isn also missing. I've already got quote on it from a Lund dealer near Buffalo....if Lund can sell me those windows maybe I can order them together.... BUT....I am thinking now....maybe there were not any windoes despite the fact the zippers are there....because there are no any of those round push on things attached to gun well where to attach the bottom part of the windows and likewise there are not any such attachment things along the edge of the windshield...so maybe the boat came originally as is and had the zippers put in place in case the owner ever decides to add the windows??? Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Thanks Guys. Wayne, yes the zippers are all there - on the sides and also on the back. They are in like new condition. Have no idea where did the windows go but I got it without them... What would be good deal on installing side windows and then what would the back one add to the price? Appreciate the lead Gerritt, will call tomorrow to see what they can do and for how much as there is no much left in the bank after all the upgrades, but windows are kind of "a must have" especially when going up North this summer for 3 weeks with my son. Hope it is not super expensive...

OK Guys, After few months working on it since I bought it last November here is the boat ready to go...well almost ha ha ha I guess it is never completely ready but 99% it is there now. Kicker installed with new fuel filter/water separator, extended battery cable to the front battery, steering arm, new VHF radio and antenna installed, cigarette lighter charging plug installed, two new MAG 10 HS riggers installed, new Bert's tracks, ratching rod holders and weight holders, all wiring, etc. Looks good and I like it... I have question about the top - as you can see on the pictures it has front windows and cover for the walk through under the windshield but no side/back windows. I've spoke to a local boat covers expert few months ago and he came saw the boat and suggested replacing EVERYTHING but the top hardware with new top with windoes everything....at that point I didn't want to spend that kind of money. And I still don't./....but I'd like to put side and possibly back windown on my existing top....nothing wrong with the top, it may not be a new one but no tears, nothing....just want to build onto it and attache side windoes for sure and if price is right back one as well. Original Zippers are already there. Does someone know a place withing GTA that can do this work and what should I expect as fair price....the less the better as funds are not limitless I hope the side windows be about $200 and maybe $200 more for the back one....is that in range? Anyhow....here are the pictures so you can recognize me on the water this season and looking forward to your help on the windows question.

The small tubes I found in CT (white color) were 14.99 From what I see on the sites the riverman gave me: http://www.fastenal.com/web/products.ex?N=...matchallpartial http://www.mcmaster.com/ The 5200 is about half price in the US. Not sure what the shiping will be but those are good sites to know for future references. Thanks guys. Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Thanks Wayne. Appreciate the follow up. I did find it in CT - the white small tube of the 5200. In the meantime I've tested few holes by using the Premium Construction adhesive I've been using around the house for years with great success. The best thing about it is it is the right tan color. I've used this same adhesive to glue my back yard gates posts 5 years ago and in -40 to +40 degrees summer and winter those posts have never moved a mm. So, anyhow...I've tested it on few holes on the boat and just checked on it today seems to be all dried and hard now and holes are filled up/ So I'll stick to it for now and finish all the rest of the holes I want to fill in. Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Not to mention - my came from the same place too Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Guys I am sure they work as they are brand new and after tons of research I found them to be very well regarded. When bringing them up.......do you have to keep your finger on the down button, or you just touch it once and leave it, and the ball continue going up and auto stops at the water level? Cheers, Ice Fisherman

I've promised pictures and they are coming....may even post some later today.... I've got them all assembled with the plastic link, clip is closed...all by the book. And they go up (super fast) down not so fast but this is how it suppose to be.... But...it says they have to auto stop at water level....right now on my driveway not having any water (just snow;-) when I push the button up they fly up but don't seem to stop at all...it I keep my finger on the button the clip will hit the pulley... Also I was thinking I should be able to push the button and leave it go do something else while the rigger brings the ball up....it seems my only goes up when I keep my finger on the button....take my finger off...and it stops.... So....would like to clear those small technical issues/....maybe I am not doing something right or I simply need WATER...lot of it too ;-)) Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Thanks Bud. I know that West Marine store and am regular customer there Previous owner has drilled few holes here and there probably trying to mount different stuff and then took them off so I'd like to plug all those holes and since my Lund is Tan color I'd like to use the same color. Well West Marine has it: http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/store...mp;classNum=318 and they have the Tan color too but only in the large size 10 Oz for $19.99 hmmmm.....those guys always make lots of money from me Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Hmmmm Wayne you must have very good CT store as I've just called two large ones and both didn't know what I am talking about....can't find it on their web site either....seems like bit of driving today ;-) Cheers, Ice Fisherman

Waooo that was fast reply. Thanks Wayne! I was thinking of CT and didn't remember seeing it there....but then my CT store is very small and often lucks much choice...will check the Brampton one. The brochure says they make it in tan color....is it the hot one that sells fast and this is why you think it'll be hard to find the color? Cheers, Ice Fisherman
