  1. Go get an old salty down east rod holder !!! Alot of salmon and Muskie guys use them they are bullet proof and last forever all steel to and fully adjustable !!! They make 2 styles !!!! About $40 each !!!!! Google it and see they are quick release to by just lifting your rod up and out !!! That one you made will explode when you are going northbound and a 42inch Muskie is going southbound !!!! And you will lose it all !!!!!

  2. I originally had the manual "boat buckles" tie downs for my boat and never had them loosen off. Make sure you crank the bow of the boat up tight against the bow roller. I've since switched over to the retractable ones and they are very convenient and in my opinion worth the money.

    The first year I owned my boat, I also experienced carpet wear on the bunks. I learned it was from the trailer flexing while towing. I just took my old tie down strap and modified it a bit and use it as a bow tie down. The bow is now snug to the trailer and I no longer have premature wear on the bunks.

    Here is a picture (not the best pic)

    BPS also sells the bow tie downs.

  3. Deep cycle batteries usually have "Amp Hour" rating

    Starting batteries usually have "Cold Cranking Amp" ratings

    Are you sure the ones you mention are deep cycle?

    Just wondering

     

     

    I noticed them at Costco the other day as well. They had the Kirkland group 27 size deep cycle battery for $89.99.

    Will check the amp hour next time I'm there.

     

    These are the marine batteries available at Costco,
