electric boat winch
http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/SiteSearchView?catalogId=10001&Ntx=mode%2Bmatchallpartial&keyword=Wench&Ntt=Wench&N=0&y=15&x=14&storeId=10001&Ntk=All_2&ddkey=SiteSearch here is a link with some as you can see price does change when they throw the word marine in it. All will work but you will have to install a plug so you can get the 12VDC and the amps you will need. Any trailer shop can install this for you on your truck. if you go with any of them i would have a cover made if it does not come with one to keep it out of the weather. Also i did not see if it had a manual over ride in case of motor failure.

Canoe anchor
It wont take much weight to hold a canoe. i dont know the stlye the other member talked about but i have the round mushroom one and i get some of that Texas mud when i pull it up thats all. The lenght of the rope will matter though. there is a formula for the amout of rope vs weight of anchor vs and boat... dont know it though but if the wind is high enough to push a canoe with an anchor it prob a good time to get off the water.

New bass boat
post up some pictures of your new boat Wear a vest .. you will not have time to put it on before wreck beside you may not be awake to put one on or near the boat. i see your in Tx so Tx parks and wild life offer a coast guard class for new boaters. Dont get into a hurry take your time and get it right the first time. Set your parking brake durning launching and loading no need to fish your truck out of the water too. just about ever rookie who get a new boat get over confident with their new boat and dam near kills them self and or who ever is in the boat. learn how to read the water and do not get lazy with your surroundings all ways keep your eyes and head moving you never know what might be comming up behind you.

Sport Jon inboard jet
I looked at the web site but it does not say what kind of jet pump they are running. I call the number and got a recording. There are builder in the lower 48 who build that type of boat its nothing new. You can build one your self. You can find use jet pumps on ebay but get a burkely with a split bowl. Also the type on impleller will be an issue. dont get Alum go with SS and A cut for a power you can go with any style engine. I have seen 4 bangers pushing jets.

I need something to protect my lower unit and prop
go with a jet drive ... i have seen it done 2 diff ways one with an OB jet drive unit dont know how low it would hang in the water or this is kind of cool find you a use jet ski and pull the engine and jet drive and install in boat.i have seen videos of it on googles.

Trailering bow ring
Good idea

Need to change lower unit oil
totally *** backwards. fill from the bottom. Really..... yea did not read the post IF YOU DONT HAVE A PUMP. all the top hole is to vent while you pump from the bottom and to show it full after the oil drains out. But being the pro you are i am sure you knew that too. So in other words there is more way to skin a cat. Think before you post back some rude commit because if you dont you just my get schooled on how to turn some wrenches.

Hydrofoil Question
ok short boats will do that until the trim is just right. You got to play with the trim that all. once your on your pad you will know it. the steering tork will not be fighting you and the boat will not porpois. the boat is not under powered so maybe you can try a whale tail but it will cut in to the turning of the boat. Take some pictures of your hull and engine trimed down, and one of the lower unit that would help a bunch. There may be a set up problem. Oh pictures at different angles. Also get an experienced boat driver to go out with you it could just be learning some boat driving skills. Hell call me up i will go out with and will have you dancing across the water with her.

Need woman help.
Here are some things to watch out for and some dos and donts 1. Watch out for the Materialistic ones their easy to spot 2. After you open your door for your truck or car and they dont unlock yours... their throw backs 3. Never talk politics with them most of the time their views are diff than yours. 4. If they text message during the date ..... throw them back 5. Be Professional while speaking and listen how they talk 6. watch their body Language it will tell you alot. like if she is playing with her hair ... that could be good or bad. 7. If they have short hair they normally are real simple girls. Look at their nails if there groomed well they take care of them self. 8. The biggest turn off is a woman is showing off or as my girl friend would say beating you chest like . Tarzan for some reason most women like the bad boys also ... its a Challenge for them to catch them and try to change them. i am sure you heard the term Nice boys finish last right. So pick out what you want and ready your self for a set backs but remember its ok to get shot down it happens to all of us. Oh when you go out dance with the fat ones it makes the hot ones look at you and question them selfs ...why are you not checking me out. Especially if she is sitting next to her. Thats call Reverse Psychology If you want to know more about women read women's magazines it will tell you alot but dont let your bros find out. Good luck and happy hunting let us know how it works out for you

guns
Check the poll out ... there a few who dont want to carry. more laws get pasted against the americans who are following the law but the perps who carry and harm just get a slap. Most perps carry a small hand gun which may work or not work... Your gang bangers can not shoot stright half the time... think about this ....when is the last time you saw Gang Bangers at the shooting range but you do see them at Texas State Parks having a festia and leaving the beer bottles in the water and on the shore....as the Rangers do nothing but Park Rangers dont carry why even call them Rangers.

Rude fisherman
Thats some funny stuff i have seen fights over ski rope getting run over... you the as the summer gets hotter so does peoples temps..... here is a topic for this also. giving aid to a boater in distress ...... i have seen and my self been stuck in the water with out power for more than one reason and just watch boats fly by with even a wave. I got towed in by a party barge a few months back out of all the boats in the area they were the only ones who stopped and gave aid. Which just suxs. I carry spare parts, filters , tools etc in my truck for my self but i have given them away just to help get a fellow boater going again. Oh check this out ... on my last boat i ran out of gas and had to switch tanks. As i was switching tanks i drifted into racing lanes for sail boats. There was a boat out there for the race at the turn and that due cussed me out while i was getting her going again. Once under power i made it to him and told him the local law of Texas and if he wanted to keep it up in front of my kids i would be happy to step over into his boat and talk about it. He did not want to ;D

PETA
I dont support every thing PEDA does or says nor am i a member, but being board this morning, i reading another post and for the fun of it i jump on the PEDA site to check it out. I like to hunt and fish and eat them. They had some videos for cows being slautered. I know nothing about that kind of stuff or the way it is done. I did not want to post the link to the web page or the link to the video. So find it, watch it and post up. I did not make it through the whole video, i jump out and posted up on the subject to see what everyone eles thought about it. Yes i like STEAK like every other man.

Rude fisherman
Well I posted something like this on my first time on this forum....except I was not in a bass boat; I was in my jet boat pulling my anchor into the boat. My boat sits real low to the water, to the point a wake can sink me. This bass boat comes hauling down the bank of the lake and buzzes me. I dropped the line and had to cut hard left to break the wake. It was my first meet and did not want to get into a fight due to the fact jet boat all ready have a bad rep like biker clubs have. I got video of us running and you can clearly see that same bass boat and a few others in the lanes we were running. The lake we were on was big enough for every one. I do not run in the stump fields or in rough water our little area is small. I try not to get in no ones way or bug the fishermen out there, but some times I got to pass them....I do drop out of warp speed and wave and move on out. The videos are not in order it just the way they were built but you can see for you self. Oh some of those boats were running triple digits. Have fun watch them if you see me out there pull up to the beach and have a cold beer and lets talk boats, engines, fishing and ETC. I would also like to add you should not anchor in the boating lanes it's just rude.

Need woman help.
Well do not talk about bass fishing for more than 5 min. Find a something common to talk about. As far as looks most ladies dont care. Money is a big deal though, its one of those sub mating issues. Like any animal it wants to know can you take care of them and a family. So dress to kill. oh take a bath and put some smell good on but not to much. If that does not work buy jet boat and hang out on the lake. For a date i would rec a date on the lake .... no swiming just dinner and show her a sun set . Chicks dig that romantic stuff. if she give you a phone number program it right then and call her cell to make sure you dont get the run around. Well that my .02 cents for now and dont show off that will kill it in a heart beat .
