Once you get used to using the twins to dock in control, there is really no need to "run" up to the bow. I dock my express solo in a crazy current all the time. Even a very strong crosswind is manageable when you plan ahead. Often I'm getting on the dock and walking up to the bow and getting...

The only change that I see as an advantage is putting new 250s. 200s seem a bit small for a 30'. You will get good money for good motors and that will offset the cost of new. Best time is to get new motors on in March/April so you launch right away and people buying motors can get their...

Barnacles can do that. How long has it been in the water? Did it have new bottom paint at the beginning of the season? You are sure tabs are all the way up?

So I got out late( 5am) Sunday. Crew didn't wake up at 2am..... :rolleyes: I used that time to catch 7 dock stripers between 3am and first light 4:30am. Fish from 12" to 24". We nixed our canyon plans and decided to look for Mahi all day and if we run across tuna then bonus. Mud hole pots...

The pulpits were cored with foam as best I can tell. You can use 1/2" exterior plywood (Not treated). Its not rocket science. Grinder with 60 grit all of the chips, over drill old holes, sand whatever is currently smooth.... until its clean. Put packing tape over the holes on the underside. put...

I just did that. Filled the channel and mounted a tilt roller. It was part of the post below https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/powerwinch-300-capstan.34573/post-253994

Nobody on my docks caught yesterday or today:(

look at Amazon Deck Plate/Fill Key There's all kinds at all prices. They are a standard key. West Marine will have them on the shelf. Same key works on fuel and water fills Or you can use needle nose pliers...

skunkboat@inreach.garmin.com I'm usually listening to 65 and 68

It is a great forecast window. Thats a good plan. That inshore swirl sure looks pretty. Should be BFT between Manasquan ridge and Resor. YFT anywhere from Resor out to the Triple wrecks spot The fleet was here last week. Its actully 10 miles past "triple wrecks/Haskell" We caught 2 yft on...

You have "sight gauges"? What do you mean? They are like the one's in a portable tank? So they have a float arm and are not a WEMA/KUS type sensor? If so...they suck...:rolleyes: Let me just say... DON"T expect extremely accurate readings from ANY typical boat fuel level sensor, but especially...

If the Garmn is showing both tanks then the wiring is correct. The garmin gets the info from N2k. The Zuke gauge puts that on the N2k. Both gauges are on the N2k network. I think you might be confused by what you are looking at? The 2 gauges do not show separate tanks , they both show ALL...

HAHAHAHAH! 1 month.... I already had to smack it with a screwdriver to make it honk....

the brown squigglies in the middle one? yep.

Different seabass on east coast. Black seabass.

strange..I've cleaned a thousand seabass in the last 30 years and never saw a worm. I've seen very few in cod and flounder and grouper. Lots of them in swordfish. I rank black seabass at the top of deliciousness scale.

Got out today for a nice easy fluking trip. Found best bite at Axel Reef SE corner in low rocks. Between three of us we got 6 keeper fluke to 6 pounds. and our three seabass
