  1. Makes for a quick trip to the East arm but for that money you can do better I think
  2. I run my sled about 60-80 and burp to a tad over 100 and feel comfortable but yeah, over 60 in a boat, yikes. Oh well, I wish the seller luck, and the buyer.
  3. A friend had a Lund 219 glass boat with a 250 Verado on it. Had plenty of power and hit 57 mph. I can't imagine how an aluminum with a 300 would dangle
  4. Hey Drifter, hows things Never mind the price but 300 on an 20' aluminum doesn't seem right. Is he scared to run it more than 34 hours. Thats prop tips to east arm
  5. Bummer, never seen it that busy. One Saturday I was launching in the city and there were 2 ahead of me. Other than unsnaping 2 tie downs my boat is ready to go though. Pull in and back up to launch, disconnect lights, take safety chain from nose and loosen winch rope, go to back and remove 2 tie downs, attach rope to cleat, back in till boat floats, remove winch strap and pull boat with cleat rope , tie to dock, park, get in boat start it and leave. 2 minutes
  6. I apologize, I was under the impression you were new there. I need to read closer. If your actions were typical for the area then yes, he is out of line, or maybe new there himself but still no excuse, and no ,I wouldn't bother his boat..lol
  7. He could have distracted them at the suv while you tied the boat a hundred yards down shore..lol I had a houseboat tied in the launch area and you couldn't get out of there once you did launch. it was a good mood day.....................
  8. LOL Thats south of 7...in the north we have our own. You will work to get to your canoe.
  9. Perhaps I was a bit harsh but it is poor form to take up the dock. Kinda like prepping your boat for launching while you are on the launch and 20 others are waiting for you
  10. Here's your sign. I would have moved your boats about a hundred yards down the lake and tied it, if I was in a good mood. It's not proper to take up a loading unloading dock at a portage unless you are loading or unloading
  11. Could be next year with mortgage rates hitting 10% toys will be for sale for whatever the owner owes on them
  12. I see a few here that are still expensive, like 10-20 years old asking what they paid new. I just hope used snowmobile prices hold up because as soon as my new one shows up I have a good used one for sale.
  13. You know it TJQ My daughter used to have to shovel them from the sidewalk
  14. OOD magazine just had an article saying the mayfly hatch is the bonanza if you know how to fish it and detailed how. It works for me. Feed them what they want and they will eat it Slow death after a storm too.
  15. Black flies are great, very happy and energetic right now. They seem to be getting along well with each other as they are traveling in huge swarms and all eating together.
  16. Regarding the lost package, did you contact Canada post , the shipping company? I had a lost parcel this winter and it was tracked as delivered so I called them. I must say they worked to find it, including personal conversations when they called me and after a week they found and delivered. The sender was no help at all.
  17. My 16' side console with 60 Yamaha was 16k brand new in 2010. I see the same unit only a 2000 for sale for 16k now so who knows the right price.
  18. It was warmer there than here today.
  19. I had a buddy from Ohio give me his snowmobile to sell here 10 years ago A guy bought it and went to import it. Total pain. How did this snowmobile get into Canada was the question. Ongoing question. Stick to your guns, tell them what they ask. Don't offer anything else. No need to go to the states but it could take a while. Good luck. Sounds like a deal to me even being a Merc edit, the US will never let you tow that boat back to import it. You will be out a boat
  20. Still 3 feet of ice here. Boat is in storage for a while yet
  21. It's not the pictures, it's the lack of snow. Now you are talking putting the boat in and we are still using ALL of the auger to drill an ice hole Just strikes me as funny. Enjoy the new trailer. Can't beat reliable equipment
  22. Those pictures look funny. I can't see over the snowbanks in my driveway. Lots are 6' high or better With the sun and rain the last few days the snow has settled to 3' deep in my yard
  23. Best you can hope for is, your hobby pays for itself. Mine would if I had time to sell anything and thats a lotta fly stuff there
