    marlin coambing pads

    If it is like my Sailfish, look under thebottom of the pad at the mesh part. There should be some metal rigs in the mesh fabric. Those are the screw holes. It can be a PITA to remove.

    I agree with gwwannabe. I would stick with the OX66 motors. For the money you save up front, you can buy a lot of gear and fuel for fishing.

    Tow vehicle opinions

    I have pulled with a 3/4 ton and a 1 ton. You can tell a stability differennce between the two when cruising. The dually just feels more planted to the road.

    marlin 300 owners

    Same on my 272. It is a pain for scuba diving. If you figure out a way to mount the ladder let me know. The only way I can see to do it is to add an inspection port.
