I crawled over a bunch of 19 footers before I settled on the 19TRX. I was looking for the best value to quality. Not the cheapest price but I didn't want to spend +20K more than the Nitro which I...

At the end of my break-in I stretched mine out to 71. The chine walk was getting pretty bad and it's been a number of years since I drove one that has walked so I shut it down. Been meaning to raise...
Talking with the guys at Power Pole at the Classic there should be a predefined cutoff that it stops pulling from your cranking battery. I want to say it was 50% capacity of the cranking it would...
Must have back pressure on motor I assume?
How many gallons did it take to do that deck? Did you put the top back on while wet or glass it back on after it dried?
Anyone use the self leveling kit from Seacast? Any pro's/con's? Wood on the front deck is gone and what looks like Ranger encapsulated a 2x4 on the inside of the splashwell for the bilge compartment...
Last summer I cut and polished a couple spots on the hull just to see what I could bring back. On the transom and up close to the bow. The transom came back to the dark blue/gray it should be, but...
Price I think would depend on quality of carpet, quality of installer and location. Around my area I've seen it in the range of $800-$1000, but unsure of carpet quality.
Thanks for the info. I've looked into the dry flake guns before and that in itself looks like a fine art. But also looks easier than mixing flake and clear trying to get the right consistency. I'd...
I am fixing to make up some fiberglass test panels to get my feet wet using gelcoat before I start up a project. Have a couple questions to try to ease the learning curve before I start.
I have a...
I can get about 6-7 6'9" to 7' baitcasters, a couple 7' spinning rods and a couple small crappie rods in my 364. Rod socks are a must. It's tight at the tip ends and mine always would wrap together...
Mine went goofy second time out last year. Auto pilot would start straight then go hard to starboard. And anchor would drift gradually off the spot. On the water calibration and haven't had an issue...
Mine will do things like this on occasion. Mine is all due to corrosion in the harness by the dash. I can read 12.8 volts at the battery but my lowrance will read 10 volts. And occasional tach...
So finally ran it with just me in the boat with my normal light load, but 2 full tanks instead of 1. Same engine height. Here is the short of it... Smooth. Actually first time I've been able to trim...
It could be, but the shop is a reputable shop that has been around since the 70's. It was a toss up between him, 45 minute drive, or Josh down at Lake Fork, several hour drive. Both had exceptional...
Believe that is manual. I love my 300 series. It's quirky at times and ugly but I to have been updating electronics. It serves me well and at some point soon it'll get a facelift to knock the ugly...
Sounds pretty good. Maybe see if he'd send you a pic of the mechanics report. Or even find out who mechanic is and call him. If those are accurate numbers I'd see about getting out on the water for a...
That '88 in the last link looks really well cared for. Very sharp!
I didn't ask him to do anything other than straighten it up. He added the cup on his own accord. I figure when the O.T. slows down I'll get out there and start dropping the engine and see how she...
In Springtown
I'm sure it's probably pretty wet inside the boat, but would the fact 8 or so feet of boat still being in the water theoretically limit RPM's? I don't have a lot of experience with this, but the last...
89 Ranger 364V with 88 Johnson GT150 with a 24P Raker and 6" jack plate. 3.5" PTP. Just had the prop repaired and B&B added some cup to the blades. Previously I had great holeshot and good bow lift....
2015 3500 all stock Cummins Mega Cab dually here. Gets 17ish mpg empty. 1 or 2 less towing the 364V. 13-14mpg towing a 5th wheel. Speed kills the mpg loaded and unloaded. Under 60 I can get 20ish but...
So apply solid base, wet sand and polish then clear and flake?
Would you have to deal with orange peel on the base color or does the next layer of clear resolve the orange peel? Say for a boat that doesn't have a full flaked surface. The base is the main color...
