  1. Make sure you get the 3.55 gears makes a big difference. I tow 3,500 easily.
  2. Wrap the gunnels and any other contact areas in plastic wrap before putting the cover on. Doing a trip that long even with a factory cover may result in gel rub spots, the wrap will prevent that.
  3. I found several surveyors that would do my 20' for $200. Might sway you if your still on the fence getting coverage
  4. Reminder the boat drags are this weekend. To those suggesting its a poor venue the races have been held there in the past and attracted close to 10,000 spectators once according to the Peterborough examiner. The fountain will be shut off during the races for the crowds viewing pleasure
  5. Sept. 16 & 17 at little lake. Featuring 3 classes of heads up 800' drags and multi boat circle racing. Starts at 10:00am both days and no admission fee.
  6. I have a Pro 7, very impressed with the imaging
  7. A good plan would be to take the safety course which will allow you to get your m1 and see how you like it and if your capable all without having to buy a bike or get insurance. If you buy one check insurance premiums on that model before buying it. I started riding last summer with 3 yrs previous experience but had not rode since I was 40 and am 57 now and love it, run to work and all over on it. You risk your like waking up, everything in degrees but if you dress for a fall you are much more likely to walk away.
  8. ^^^^^ is this 3 wheeler near Gliddon in Oshawa?
  9. A bonus of the sho is you can hydro tec the 200 to 350hp with no loss in reliability. The pantera is a nice boat Ernie you cant go wrong either way. Is it the classic?
  10. Wow nice upgrade either way!! Did you talk to aim marine in Ottawa about a basscat? Might be close to impossible but a test ride in each might help you decide
  11. Owner makes a good one, you could get through your local shop if you dont find any at the show
  12. Yes I do know who he is, thats why he has discredited himself by making claims that have not been proven via research yet he presents them as fact, thats the issue I have with this guy because he should and does know better based on his work history.
  13. ^^^^^^^ I have had the benefit of reading multiple posts he made regarding this tournament last yr, he is a zelot with and agenda who Im pretty sure happens to live on Sturgeon. You might say the event is in his back yard, ok on with the "I have no personal stake in this" crusade. Does he have good intentions? Sure maybe to a degree but the claims he spouted last yr while covering yhem in a thin vale of science were shameful.
  14. A small fragile lake? Under additional serious pressure from winter fishing? (Pan fish only but you know that). If your going to use science then stick too it, not your half truths and twisted facts to push your agenda.
  15. Might be coming in at the rub rail too, worth looking at
  16. Dropped $750 lastnight, thx for the heads up!!
  17. I know of an Islander for sale, or did you want an open boat?
  18. Its 8 yrs old and with tax as it sits would sell new for about $24,000 so expect to walk away with $10,500- $11,000
  19. When I asked one at a poker table, he said maui without question, when I mentioned I wanted maui quality uv lenses to the person at costco she said that dont offer a uv lense of that quality. Neither person had a dog in the fight or a motive to say what they said. Just a couple personal observations but as you said the info is out there if you choose to ignore it thats your choice.
  20. Tell that to an optomitrist lol. There are tests that layman like us can do that will show vast differences in lense quality. Maui jims have the highest quality lenses available, some others are good of coarse as well.
