If you have a jack plate, you might consider the All Aboard Ladder. I have one on my Ranger and all one has to do to install is to take two nuts off the engine mounting bolts on the plate, then bolt...
In the link, the article states the croc being just less than 8'. I did not see anything that stated it was 12'. Perhaps I missed something.

I have seen Eric perform in Oklahoma City at VZD's twice. Each time the house was packed but it is small and gets maybe 100 or so and that is it. I was blown away by the first performance and he is...
I am probably one of only a few people who like to listen to my favorite tunes while I fish (usually by myself). I fish a lake that doesn't have cellular service most of the time so my Bluetooth...
One great thing about owning a Ranger is that they will still make you new seat skins for your boat from the same patterns used when new. A bit of an advanced project for a strong willed DIY person...
It is attached the same way as the factory carpet/cushion which is held in place with friction from the surrounding upholstery. The factory added a strap stapled to the seat base in the event of a...
The top of the box is a step. Separate hinges are less likely to be stepped on and subject to subsequent damage. Plus, I like em.
I installed my seat skins by myself and it would be much better to have another person to help. I bought an air powered stapler (you will need this for sure) and just dug in. I will tell you that...
I have a 2002 Ranger 185 VS with the bench seat as supplied at their factory. My seat skins began coming apart at the seams due to thread deterioration and I bought new skins from Ranger and...
I bought all of the seat skins from Ranger to install on my boat and then I decided to make an interchangeable coin box with cup holders. I used cedar finger jointed red cedar with marine plywood...
I made this one:
More reliable? Perhaps the transmission is but the clutch? I have owned vehicles with auto transmissions and very few issues except with an aluminum case powerglide. Learned on my dads 52 Chevy...
I have been several times as there is not much else I can really do now. I went there again today but the wind was howling, unloaded at "The Point" and fished mostly north of there off Rock Creek...
On Toledo Bend in my Skeeter SX185 Johnson 150......fishing flats on a questionable day but the bass are biting a rattletrap really well. Four feet of water and the wind comes up, Shhhht man. the...
I hooked up the boat to fish Lake of the Arbuckles this past Monday. It looked like Memorial Day weekend there. All ramps are open, picnic tables outside camping areas are assessable. Camping and...
I agree with you. Looks like so far he ended up with everything. I was working in Wynnewood today and after watching the series, decided to drive by. I pulled in their parking lot and exited the...
Was in the area today. Happen to meet up with someone I recognized. I am on the right, guess who is on the left?

I have been reloading since 1978. I have loaded for most all of the caliber rifles and handguns I own. This is a great thing to do especially with our current political climate and this ugly corona...
Just wondering if others like to listen to music when bass fishing? I usually fish alone and music has always provided stress relief and pleasure. I really enjoy fishing with music....sometimes...
That is exactly how I did it. Yeah, long arms......a little scratched up after I did it too.
On my Ranger, I used the smallest tape for sale at HD. Hardest issue was to find the entrance on rear starboard position where wires were run from the factory, pretty far and hard to see under the...
Seventy five percent finished with the seat skin replacement for my 185VS. Been after it off and on for three weeks and after this job is finished, it will most likely be the last time I do it. All...
A 1% club is one that follows the mandate that 99% of the population is law abiding and their clubs are the other 1%. As a former patch holder, my experience is that most often when patched in the...
