Sharkhide. It's life depends on the water it is used in, in my area with good clean water, not tannic, I get 4-5 years
I have a 2016 28 ft Bennington pontoon and a 2001 PT 185 Tracker and both hulls were treated with Shark Hide 6 and 5 years ago. They are both getting close to needing another thorough cleaning and a...
I put in Syntec 24 oz 4 years ago and it is holding up great.
I have had the Maxxis on 2 different trailers for the last 4-5 years, great tire.
I would guess that that the most likely source is the livewell plumbing. One of the hoses could have frozen and split, the pump or attached valve likewise could have frozen and split open. There's a...
It sounds like it is exactly like mine (2001 PT 185). The dash switch is up for manual on, and down for timer operation. If it has the factory timer control. red If I remember correctly, it is 1...
Trash and grass coming in are not a problem here--no grass in the lake and there is a screen. I have a screen on the livewell drain which helped with keeping out crawdad parts, etc., but that screen...
As stated I have a 2001 PT185 and my Flow-rite control has failed again. This version is the simple Auto/Drain version, no recirculate or pump-out function. I haven't pulled the pump and valve out...
My TM is an older Motorguide Tour Digital, running on 2 group 31 Duracell AGM's. No problem fishing 2 days with them.
I also recommend the Minn Kota MK 345PC, I mounted mine on top of the gas tank on HDPE board, and added the 3rd battery. It fit my boat, no problem
I replaced mine 3 or 4 years ago with a different type. They're made with different length shafts, but way more accurate and no needle bouncing like the OEM. My tank is 6 inches deep, so 150 MM was...
I used PT for my bunks, then used a vinyl wrap-type cover over the PT. Launches and retrieves so much easier.
I have Maxxis tires on my boat trailer, as well as my pontoon and utility trailers. Performed well for years now.
I replaced mine 3 years ago, went with a Schmitt wheel somewhat similar to the OEM wheel. Much better made and stronger. The OEM flexed a lot and finally broke, not this one. Tapered shaft made it...
I have PT on mine, and wrapped them with the vinyl wrap (Caliber). The boards won't rot, and the boat loads and unloads much easier.
Purchased my boat in TN, paid taxes only in NC. Of course, you do have to pay personal property tax annually in NC in addition to the initial sales tax.
On my boat I have 2 group 31 AGM batteries for the trolling motor and the depthfinders, and 1 group 31 cranking battery for the outboard and livewell pump. Works fine for me.
I've been approached maybe a dozen times, and only actually checked about half the time. Never had a problem with any of them and with several we just sat and shot the bull.
Because of the extremely limited room in a 195 bilge I went with a Johnson Pumps Ultima electronic switch. It has been there for 4 years now, not a problem. I turn on the bilge switch when I put the...
Here in the WNC mountains about 25% of the stations are out this afternoon. I did notice that gas prices are up about .20-.30 per gallon from Saturday.
I did the same as Tinman90, solved my problems too.
When I renovated my PT185 a couple years ago I ran all new wiring to the front, along with 2 spare 12 gauge wire sets "just in case". As you now know there is no easy way to get it up there unless...
I can fish all summer long in the clear mountain lakes and the aluminum will turn slightly---I can fish once or twice in the lakes is central or eastern NC and it turns very dark. In the upper end of...
I had some of the same concerns, even so I went with the contact cement. Part of the time I had a helper and we would dry-fit the carpet to assure we could get it in the right place. I left a couple...
It works, but the VOC's are high and the EPA doesn't like it. Lots of luck ever getting any.
