I just listed my 2000 champion 181, storm in October knocked a tree onto bow deflected onto winch stand. Needs fiberglass work and a winch and also the jack stand. Trailer and boat. Taking Mercury...
Had a storm last October. The boat we bought almost a year ago was damaged by a tree on the bow and trailer winch. The damage is estimated at $2500..... That places it above it's value for me to fix....
thanks for the explanation, as I wondered about the 2 switches on my 181. and I only saw two pumps in the bilge... now I remember the black panel, so there is a pump hidden, ah-ha!
After over a month, I finally found an upholstery shop. After that, 2 weeks while he redid them. They are very close to factory colors and layout. Now I only had to put the back row into sockets as...
Thanks, and my feelings we're much the same. I will make the sandwich of flat steel and point the trailer repairs out. I also will never have another tube trailer. I'd rather see the wires in a...
Managed to buy a trailer from the north... I paid so much attention to the the boat setting on the trailer, I didn't notice the rust. The frame bows are rusted out in the lowest bends. I thought I...
I got it installed this afternoon.... and my wife and I took it to the water. I admit I'm still entirely new to this technology. My settings were left default from factory, except to put all 3 of the...
Well I've gotten the power running up with all the other wiring, so tomorrow after I install the transducer, and take it to the water, I'll soon see. I did turn it on, and did the demo for a look...
I'm reading the instructions. Anybody know how likely I'll have with transom mount transducer wiring routed along side the other power wiring going to my dashboard area.
If I ran the cable inside a...
Contemplating a 360, based on a YouTube video I watched. I don't know very much on any of the new fish finders and I would like to upgrade to a SI type finder. Based on the video it appeared to be a...
I'll add a photo so you can relate to the "not pretty anymore" comment. But as it sets right now, she is mechanically flawless, and ready to fish in. It's only been 3 years since it last was on the...
I am fully aware of why I have any boat at all. She was the one who said that we needed a fishing boat, and so we bought the ProCraft as a project boat. A trip to Florida, and we bought the Suzuki...
Some may remember the post about bye-bye ProCraft.....
I had talked her into keeping the boat but buying a newer Mercury to put on it. I thought that was a done deal, then several days later, she...
Maybe
Grout-Scout, exactly what I was thinking while I was preparing the ProCraft for the sale to a guy in Ohio. Right now, he hates me. I took it to the water this afternoon. Its a 1990 ProCraft, with the...
I can't say that I'm all down about it. It's a pretty good looking boat....but.
Fish & Ski model, doesn't offer enuf space for fishing..
No live well up front.
Not really good helm seating,...
Thanks Ed R!
I was thinking about a total refit of the Atwood posts and socket plates, But the OR is a good solution, and the only thing I'd have to buy would be the male pins seat mounts and the...
I just got some Kalin, 2" Triple Threat Shad grub, twisty tail, high glitter in tail.....can't wait to cast them. Have them on 1/16 and 1/8 jigs......
Thanks guys for the response, that's a big help.

Our Champion has a 2002 150, carburetor type... It was reported to have had a power head put on it in late 2014 or early 2015... I don't have any documentation for that. Whoever did that or maybe at...

Was kinda going over the boat checking things.....just getting it ready for Crappie season....
I started setting the convertible seats and setting the post into the holes that were under the...
Our 181 25th Anniversary, purchased this year used.... it'll needs some TLC, but we will get the little things like the upholstery and the carpet re-done. The hull is in pretty good shape. The...
