As I said in a previous post, I picked up this Broadbill at a really good price. When I registered it, the state had it as a 1978 and had not been in the water in over 20 years. Overall, I thought it was in good shape but i quickly realized that the transom wood is completely gone. Does have...

I’m starting to plan out the refresh on my Broadbill. The rub rail is completely dried out and just breaks off if I try to move it. Where is the best place to get a replacement. A quick google search is turning up items they are WAY out of the price range ($300+ for 20’). So I’m assuming...

I pulled my 1979 Evinrude 25 out of storage in my shop (20+ years) After doing some high level checks (fluid in the foot, compression, plugs) on the motor I gave her a pull. On the 5 pull she fired right up but was running a little rough and didn't want to stay running. I noticed the fuel...

Location: North Alabama Pickup Only 18 Herters 72 Millennium / Ultimate mallard decoys. These are the ones with the photo image on the hardshell body. They are lightly used and 2 have broke heads (one missing completely but looking for it and one that is just broken at the base) See photos...

I know this can be a bit of a Ford vs Chevy vs Mopar but what is your dog food of choice and why? looking to change brands for our house dog. Lost my hunting partner a couple months ago. My lab had major skin issues so we had her on an expensive food in a attempt to help (some results but not...

is there any way to tell the age of a AA Broadbill based on the Serial Number? I just picked one up and I know most of the owner history but dont have a timeline. It seems to be in good condition for an old boat (ie have not found any soft spots). Just REALLY dirty and the gelcoat is...

My sister is a science teacher at a local school and is working on an outdoor classroom. They have multiple different projects in the classroom like various habitats, hydroponics, .... She is now working on a solar power section. As part of this section, there is a water flew type element...

the bench seats on my ski boat are made with something like a foam support board glued to the bottom of the seat foam and the vinyl is wrapped and stapled to it. As would be expected, someone jumped into the boat (onto the seat) from the dock and broke the foam support board. I need to fix it...

Ok, so I am sitting here looking out the office window and a light rain falling and it got me thinking. Next year I will be losing my primary hunting partner to college and will spend most of the weekends outside of Christmas break hunting on my own. Historically, my son and I hunt out a...

After a LONG summer project, the boat is back in the water. Project tasks: strip all flaking paint off (inside and out)sand and clean aluminumprime and paint with industrial paint for aluminumspray in bedliner on inside (tan) and on top rail and splashwell (black)weld on splash rails along...

A friend of the family just gave me the decoys listed below. He was going to put them in trash. Not sure on the "value" of them but looking for input 12 Fiberglass Goose shells (12 original stakes and 13 heads) heads look like they have the original rubber band attachment strap 6 ARIDUK...

this is the same boat on different days and from different levels the final photo is from my drone and was shocking.... ended up getting a bunch of dark paint and more camo the next day from ground level, I thought the camo was ok. but as soon as I looked at the drone photo, I knew why...

well the "social distancing" has given me the time to really rework the paint on my duck boat. I have been fighting chipping / flaking paint for years and I decided to fix the problem correctly instead of just fixing new bare spots every few months. So far I have sanded 95% of the paint off...

Thinking about / planning a project for next summer. I hunted out of an Outlaw boat several years ago and the one feature I loved was the fiberglass top (lifted and rotated on a single axes front and back pieces) Thinking about making something like that for my current boat. The opening is...

The boat is brand new (never been in the water). I picked two up from manufacturer in August 2017 and only need one. You save shipping cost. VERY firm on pricing. $1400 Located in Huntsville Al Additional details on the manufacturer site...

I hunt most of the time with my son and the boat I have is really too much boat for the areas I hunt (if too safe is possible). However, after lurking around here for years I think it is time to look into a father/son project. I would like to know if yall have any ideas on a boat design that...

Headed out for opening day and made it about 1/4 mile before the outboard quit and would not restart. (no hunting) Took it in for service this week and the fuel lines were the problem. Ethanol had destroyed them. I was lucky that the eTec engine has a water separator filter and a fuel filter...

One happy boy. ;D first night of kennel training is over. She cried for a bit but did go to sleep. going to be a lot of fun training her with my son. Still waiting on her to name herself.

I have a boat for the big water but there are times that it would be nice to have a small boat to use on back waters. I would love to have a BBSB but just don't have the room and my second motor is a 1978 25hp 'Rude which from what I see is too big of a motor for a BBSB and parking space would...

OK, I am not a EE major but this does not make sense to me. I have not had the boat out in several months. The battery is charged enough to crank the 115hp outboard without an issue. But when I flipped the switch for the lights, nothing happened for 30 seconds. After that they came on fine...
