    Elevated blinds... worth the hassle?

    Son, son-in-law, and I recently built an elevated blind base. Plywood and dimensional lumber were a bit of a sticker shock. Now trying to decide whether to build the blind or purchase a shell blind ready-to-use. Guessing lumber and hardware would come relatively close to cost of a mid-range...

    Backpack leaf blower

    Have the BR 600 Mag. Between home with 2 acres as well as farm, ours gets a lot of use/abuse. Been very happy with Stihl products including blower, chain saw, and weed wacker. Quality products IMO.

    Outboard Cavitation / Ventilation Issues

    Sleeve is in, but I noticed it was loose on prop hub... you've got me wondering if loose is normal (tabs may not be holding). Just checked out u-tube regarding this and sounds exactly what may be occurring. Will pick-up a new one and try that. Thanks ND! Appreciate all the Great feedback!

    Trimmed down all the way. My thought as well regarding spun hub. Hope to have time tomorrow to pull the prop and check hub.

    Outboard Cavitation / Ventilation Issues

    It does. Didn't feel any vibration when opening throttle, thinking we would feel vibration if hub is slipping. Didn't have time to remove prop yesterday to check hub. Have never had a hub slip on any outboard. Assuming one would see evidence of deterioration on inside of hub if that is the...

    Outboard Cavitation / Ventilation Issues

    Son recently purchased a 2014 Tracker Pro-Guide V-175 with a 115 HP Merc four stroke. The prop is an aluminum 17 pitch Mercury Black Max (recommended by Merc). With the engine trimmed down, prop seems to cavitate or ventilate when powered up and boat attempts to plane out. Prop looks next to...

    Is this fact or fiction; MAGA boat parade out of Fox island Sat.

    Awesome / Impressive indeed! Boats and pontoons displaying our Country's flag and Trump banners streamed by our home for several hours. Many had patriotic songs blasting from their sound systems. We spent the entire day watching and giving thumbs up to boats as our Country's Flag was on...

    Custom Tarp Design

    Agree with TRS. They built a cover for a Lund Tyee that I had a few years ago. Was a quality product and looked as good as new when I sold the boat after 5 years of use. AM hoping to identify a good option in the Bismarck area. Thanks for the suggestion!

    Sakakawea Fall Salmon Fishing

    Magnum Dipsy divers should get you down to 60' with 100+ feet of line out. We use them in combo with downrigging and have a fair number of hook-ups with them.

    Boat license decals

    Same here. Both stickers are starting to peel off. Applied clear packing tape over decals a couple of weeks ago and that won't likely last long. I clean decal area with alcohol and let dry before applying decal. Never have had a problem before. Sending an e-mail to G&F today.
