  1. The boat shops sell a kit for that. It is basical a kicker plate on a swing arm that you lower when needed. It comes with threaded rod to couple to your main for steering.
  2. I'm not wett certified but I am tssa licensed for gas oil and propane. You should never insulate around a liner, for one the insulation will melt. the top of a s.s. wood liner is frekin hot. Years ago gas liners were insulated at the top and then cemented in, I now make a living changing these because the insulation retains water and promotes rot. They also used to pour bags of vermiculite (the white granuals in potting soil) same result rotting liners. I am having a wett certified installer install a wood insert in my home thursday so I'll ask him. I would have attempted the install myself but a cutting torch is required to get my liner past the baffles in my existing fireplace. One last note do not install the wire in the chase(it will melt), bring your electrical out the front and across the hearth Brian McCrostie McCrostie Mechanical
  3. It took my mini weiner 10 years to swim.. funny thing is only the back half floated,front half sunk like a rock He never ventured far out.
  4. Its going to be an excellent boat! The parent company is huge, I'm sure Lund will adapt to the technology. Look at who's experience they can tap into. Baja the leader in offshore fiberglass tech. lowe crestliner bayliner Lets not forget this is one line only, I'm sure by the time your brand new barron gets replaced even fiberglass will be old news. I thought I heard a fiberglass hull on the ips frame. They are trying to fight the tracker.

  11. In Ottawa most of the parks, canal are run by the National Capital Commision In the east end they expropriated a poor farmers land to 'expand a greenbelt' Poor old timer fought it with every ounce and dime. His buyout was no where close to market values. Within 5 years the NCC changed its 'vision' They in turn resold the stolen property for millions to big block retailers. Ottawa also has bylaws on boats Almost as bad as condo corps
  12. Looking to compile a list of muskie waters in eastern ontario... Say Kingston east OK.. I'll state the obvious Rideau river Ottawa river Madawasca OK now its your turn
