Thank God I am formerly from that State, clown show of a Governor, never seen a tax they don't like, and trample everyone's liberty's at a moments notice. I will gladly go back and exercise my lifetime hunting, fishing, and trapping rights to just get even in what I contributed to the tax line...

Confirming they were set up for a short shaft motor correct?

Ok boat experts, will a 15 HP short shaft motor do the job on a Armstrong 14 Broadbill. And value - what is price range of one of them after a total restoration. One has popped up on the radar and the guy is looking for a offer. Thanks in advance.

So I have had Banded, Cabela's, Frog Toggs, Hodgman, Drake, and probably a couple off brands, all breathable, all leak at the seams. So I recently, moved and in bag was a pair of Cabela's branded breatheables that look to me like Simms from a forgone decade, so far no seem leaks period and they...

A year ago I acquired a few dozen 63 bluebills, some had the squatty head, with that lot of decoys there was a couple of bags of replacement heads, black plastic blow molded with stems, one bag was the normal Herter's 63 heads and there was about a dozen of them squatty ones, these decoys came...

Hi Guys: A while ago someone on here had poured a weight that went on the bottom of Herter's 63 and 72 size decoy body it was lead and had holes on each end anyone have any info on this? Thanks

had one for several years heard all the horror stories mine was a absolutely great boat, the step contraption in the bow was a water gathering device but was kinda nice to load guys off the shore with, mine had a 40 etec, plenty of motors, was orginally equipped with mud motor but previous owner...

Twin City Outboard, google them, they have a TON of stuff.

I might know a guy! LOL

I have seen a few these floating around and when ricing season approaches they will pop up on Craigslist here, the older model had a seat about at the third point from the rear. The "whacker" sat there and another guy polled the boat form behind.

Bob, It is my guess you have a one of the later models, I have seen this one before too, the one I had the seat was riveted in and the ribs went up the sides and had additional bracing on the floor and were made form square tubing, additional the older models were "flatter" on the floor I...

I had one and sold it a few years ago, mine had one seat about a third of the way form the back, you stand behind that seat and pole the boat and the "beater" sits on the seat and wraps the rice off the stalks. The transom was angled for a small outboard, my ribs were from square tubing, these...

I have bit on insight on this, back in the early 2000's I had a small tackle business, trying to get a foot hold in the fishing tackle business mainly salmon tackle but we also did titanium leaders and anything else we could sell. Our first break came when the then Gander Mountain bought all 18...

Thanks for the info.

So a few weeks ago I found a Carsten's Honker, a model they have discontinued years ago, but this one was down on the Mississippi River and was used as a fishing boat, previous owner had taken great care of it or lack of use it was insanely in great shape for a 80's model boat, but the owner had...
