Alumium Decking
That is why I stated never go under 0.125 or 1/8, when you move and hear a popping noise that is called oil can effect. The problem most people run into is the try to go to thin and don't brace properly; you don't need lots of bracing just properly placed bracing. A good outdoor/marine carpet will dampen most noise from anything dropped unless you're just a bull in a china closet.

How did you find out about this site, and when you registered... (and a little about myself)
I was an assistant moderator over on Bass Fishing Home Page.com on MSN when I found this site after doing a search on Yahoo. I've always thought these guys know what they are talking about this was in the late 90s or early 2000s. BFHP eventually died & one day I was reading new articles before a trip to Toledo Bend when the word Forum just stuck out like a neon sign. Who have I learned from? Huh couldn't tell ya but it's dozens; some times I may sound like I don't agree when in the back of my mind a little light is faintly starting to come on.

Power tilt & trim
The CMC PT-35 is designed for outboards up to 35 hp but will work on a 40 hp; the design rating is for weight not HP. I've installed several with 40 hp outboards with absolutely no problems & at $130 less.

GPS question?
While Matt is correct in that your laptop will not show you your position it will show you how to get from point A to point B which is all a GPS will do.

Maps
Even with 36 yrs experience on Toledo Bend I keep a map on the console of my boat; many times when I stop for lunch I'll have the map out. This is a topographic map of the lake before it was flooded; these maps are more detailed than any available lake maps. Most maps available today are made at 10' to 12' contours my maps are 3 to 5' contours, they also show old homesteads, farm ponds, logging roads, acreage used for digging top soil, clear cut acreage and many details not shown of today's maps. Another advantage of being from the south is most lakes are manmade so these detailed maps are available where as most natural lakes found through the country don't have such detailed maps.

How thick do you like your jig skirt?
Most of my jigs are 3/8 oz & larger; the bulkier the better Silicone skirts with a touch of Flashabou Grizzly Accent
-
stop signs and stoplights optional?
Stop at all stop signs & redlights; tickets are a waste of money I could use to go fishing
-
How fast do you drive?
I live in the country so its 5 mph over the limit cruise control locked; when in town I still do the same but I avoid roads with heavy traffic so it very easy to see anyone near the road from a distance.
