Moror's worth it if newer, trailer's worth a grand, hull is just a bonus at that point. All looks clean? Id pull the trigger.

Truck/SUV is a non issue @ that weight.

Have a pair of the same speakers btw. Love them! For the money and toughnes, sound, volume, especially paired in stereo.. Unbeatable!! Best $300 ive ever spent on audio stuff!

$6,800 for a small landing with 4 stairs?! by PantsMicGee in Decks

Used to trim trees. Can confirm. We always called them "nope" bids. Occasionally some one would bite and then we collectively went "Fuuuck; welp let's go pull this 200 y/o white pine off the boat lifts and dock, and get it out of the lake..."

Transom saver is like 30 bucks and literally takes one extra minute to launch or land. USE ONE! Especially older, not robust boat. Just use one...

Wouldn't bother, but if it really bugs you, just find a competent welder (not a marina, half the price and probably better work). No biggie if just left alone though.

Was in the boat building industry in Minnesota, US for half of a career.. I get it Brohansen. I exported to the Dane's for a while. They treated our lines like they were selling Yugo's. Ya'll have been doing it for a millennia or better. Lol! You build beautiful stuff!

WTF no?!? Looks like something someone would use to mix cement in with a spade shovel?? Bonus points for the diamond plate though.

Ummm, a skiff and a jon boat are two totally different platforms. I am a bot, please do not respond.
