    Hey Charlie. I work on those boats and motors all the time. It looks like she may need a little work 😂. You probably new that. But I would replace the wood on the transom, replace the water pump impeller in the motor, the spark plugs in the motor, and the gear oil for sure. Those pressure tanks are not dangerous at all. It’s been a myth for awhile. I won quite a few of the pressure tank motors and never had any issues. I’m sure you can catch ya a few Walleyes on the SS Ope! Best of luck, Seth.

    Year #1: Glorious year of pontoon. On the water all the time. Fam is like heey. We're like acourse. Year #2: Dock is broken from fam accidentally ramming pontoon into dock. They sorta admit beer was involved. Also, pontoon is dented on one side, which is why snow cover no longer snaps on. Year #3: Upholstery shot thanks to snow piling up underneath pitiful attempt to snap on cover. Year #4 through #9: From bad to worse for boat and deteriorating dock. Year #10: Sell pontoon AND dock for parts. Moral of the story? DO NOT MARRY A MAN WITH FIVE BROTHERS. Keep 'er movin'. :-)

    The most accurate part is the crowd forming to watch. One of the boat launches at my lake is next to house, and the homeowners just sit in their yard and watch beginners try to launch their boat

    Make sure to rebuild your hubs on the boat trailer, i was a first time old boat purchaser last year. I had to air arc the old beat up spindle out and cut the suspension entirely off my trailer. Have fun!

    How to back a boat trailer. look in the side mirror and turn your steering wheel towards the back of the boat that gets out of line. After some practice keeping it going straight back you can start turning the boat the way you want.

    i had a 15 foot , 1959 glassbar, fiberglass on wood boat , with a 1962 evinrude lark engine , so the lil windshield and steering wheel , like that , named her "Taobnikcufecin" and i loved that freakin boat , ran her in 3 different states , oh plus confusion , so 4 count em 4 states and had massive future plans for her , was gonna put on oar locks , an adjustable removable keel and sail ... but i started taking care of someone else's family , needed the parking space at the apt and i couldn't even give her away ... broke my heart ... oh and one time we were at the end of the harbor , so open ocean and the spark plug fouled , after already havin been out a couple hours soo ... so no hurry to try and clean the plug , so we were drifting back in the harbor slowly and i wanted to speed up the process , so i put a kids kite on the end of the fishin pole and let out a good hundred yards and the wind was goin the right way and we made it back to the dock ... so everyone who says , the best daze of boat ownership are the first and last , i call bull , the best daze were all the adventures in between
