  1. I use the blue Stabil, have used Seafoam. But after talking to friends who are avid pleasure boaters, the recommendation is for the product listed below. That will be going in my next tank http://www.jamestowndistributors.com/userportal/show_product.do?pid=6174&familyName=StarTron+Gasoline+Engine+Fuel+Treatment
  2. you guys using this on spinning or bc tackle?
  3. I do not think you would be dissapointed. I have both and am happy with each one for what I use it for
  4. I was were you are not to long ago. Here are my impressions for what they are worth.... I wanted aluminum because that would suit me better given the areas I would be fishing. Aluminum is more forgiving. Hit a rock... less of a deal with aluminum than it is with glass. Aluminum is easier to take care of. I want to be fishing not worrying about the finish on my boat. Make absolutely sure you ask the overall length of the "package" an outboard is going to add about 2 feet to the length of the package. Has big implications of how long it is given the finite length of storage space. Also the trailer length. Example: I have a Bass Tarcker 170 boat is 16 feet 4 inches in length. Add 2 feet for the motor plus trailer and I was well over 19 feet. I need to walk behind it in the garage. I got the swingaway trailer and cut it down to 17 feet and a couple of inches. Also remember that you will store the boat with the motor raised which can a even more length. Insurance for mine is 171 per year. That also includes a rider for 3000 in equipment. good hunting and the above is JMHO
  5. I am like you and will only do minor things. There are some things that are just to much of a pain and it is nice, if something goes wrong or does not work, to be able to say "fix it" I am taking in my Tracker Monday for an auxillary cigarette lighter and a depth finder to be mounted on the bow. they gave me an estimate of around 200. Sure beats running the wires myself. The labor at the marine place is $100 per hour. I have done some work on my motorcycle and let me tell you there are some things that are worth every penny to have others do
  6. so this product is not for a "tin" boat
  7. I think taht is a good deal. I just bought a new Tracker after years of fishing wth a buddy that has one. We fished it hard for years and he took care of it. Long story the boat was 6 years old and was like new
  8. Just got my BPS Spring fishing Classic flyer. "Shimano has decided not to support the youth reel trade-in program" :) I understand the economy and the need to make certain business decisions but... May not matter to many here but my next reel purchases probably won't be a Shimano. As much as I love the brand, I will look at other manufacturers products
  9. I have one of each and each one has its uses for me. I would buy one of each
  10. I have been told no problem. Also your motor will find the place it will always go to when trailering.
  11. thanks for the picture. that is a nice setup
  12. do you have a picture per chance?
  13. I am going to put a sonar on the front of my tracker and I was undecided where. Then I started thinking how I fish. I like to fish with the right side of my body facing the bow of the boat. So I prefer to cast of the Port side What is everyones preference and where do you have your sonar mounted
