  4. They are rivited three guys over on the salmon unlimited indiana club had them larry trepack wildcat john warren kingseeker brian still has one cant remember his boat name just this second great fishing platforms lot of room boat is real similar to starcraft islander not a hard core tournament machine if thats what you are looking for if you run them hard in rough water things start comming loose if you dont keep up with keeping everything tight it turns into big problems especially the few out there that have the V6 motors V8 was just more than the boat ever should have had in it its a light boat dont need a big motor the 470 190 hp 4 cylinder was about the perfect motor for this boat they tow around easy with a 1/2t pick up

  7. we have a abundance of the old style vector riggers that guys want to trade in on the new vector traxs tech riggers 500 ea and down these are lightly used almost new condition NOT well worn charter captain variety send me a email if interested [email protected]
  8. stop eyefull you are making me hungry!! dam good catch you have there!! uv works great ! top 50 for me but some thing i just discovered about two years ago soak charging glow stuff with the new high intensity LED lights brings a new dimension to the glow game TRY IT the new LED LIGHTS ARE THE NUTS and the prices have come way down from where they where 3 years ago
  9. i use the thick strips because it is fast easy and not as messy as whole whole "A" side/ i call it/ is better A= the side with the tail on it but the salt packed strips thick strips are just too dam easy and almost as good take it out of the tub pin it with a tooth pick put a couple drops of herring oil on it and send it out here is a couple pics of the thick strips next to the regular variety the thicker strips give the bait heads a better role and last longer in the bait heads Note these are not balley hoo strips have yet to firgure out how to make them work any where near as good as these
  10. hammond out door 1-28 1-29 show come see the vector in action
  11. yes Michigan city to grand haven Michigan city to Milwaukee the other side usually don't get it out till the first of July seems any early than that it gets mixed results after the 4th don't leave port with out it been doing this for almost ten years now it seems to take my bigger fish on our boat there is a definite learning curve involved fresh cut A side fillets are the best but we usually run the salt packed strips only because we are lazy and they work almost as good have not had any luck with the new bally hoo strips
  12. last year for me it was the dream weaver "dream catcher" big paddle
  13. riggers have all gone thru a lot of evolution the last decade or two the new cannon stx desighn is slick lot of the problems eliminated mag tens usally sell for around 519 brand new for a lifetime rigger is a good price the old big johns are nice easy to find parts and new motors when you need them The new vectors look to me to be the new top of the line for us in the great lakes not the most expesive either but still 950 is a tuff nut to crack The unitrols are the best manuals i would say for a manual rigger good luck the first thing i thought of when i first seen this post " I hope it dont turn out the same way it did for me when i tryed to bering a old electric back from the dead i my case i would have been money ahead throwing it away i spent more time and money fixing would have been a lot cheaper faster and less agrivation to buy a new one "
  14. Where is the best place to get a fish hawk td or the x4? from one of this sites sponsors it out top seller this month on sale calumet marine on line store http://calumetmarine.3dcartstores.com/
  15. salt packed easy to use easy to store fresh whole cut rite before you use it is the best but just too much work 24 tubs of the thick strips are 135 ships usps because of the heavy salt it dont have to stay frozen some pure herring oil is recomended to use with the strips a couple drops on the strip before it goes in the water will work with any bait head it fits in the thick strips seem to last a lot longer than the thin ones that where packed in the vacume bags some of the larger bait heads it spins too fast with this you will have to slow it down a bit with some heavy hooks or some times pinning the head to the fishing line slows it down or best flip speed is 60 -120 rpm = 1-2 flips a second if it flips like a propeller blade it wont work well just like if it is not flipping at all or only once and a while sure make meat rig fishing easy with little or no mess
  16. message part 2

    i can order quicksilver equipment but it is best to take it out walk into a shop with it in your hand and get a direct replacement will not look exactly the same but will work rite take your model and serial numbers with you for the motor and transon bracket they probably will need these numbers as well to confirm they order the rite one compare it to the new one when picked up

    good used ones are hard to find and regretable if they lead to problems with a drive

  17. hey buddy

    best to just order a new one from mercruiser what exacly is wrong with yours you will want to make sure there is not some thing wrong with the shift bracket or the cables that caused your control box to go bad

    its been my experience that tells me if you have a omc you put a omc box on it volvo a volvo box always change box and cables at the same time

    yes a lot of them are interchangable but it is best to just put the rite one on there then no adapting is required every thing wiill work better that way a bad box or poor adjustment can trash a out drive then its big $$$$

  19. i like the thick strips just super fast easy and works good whole fresh cut may work a little better but not worth the differense to me rinse the salt off stick a tooth pick in it dribble a little herring oil on it send it out

  21. BOAT= Break Out Another Thousand
  22. The boat alone is not the expensive part base price on a 2012 26' with a hard top and decent amount of standard equipment is only 58'500 A lot of guys buy decent used stuff for a lot less and by the time they have it sea worthy and dependable they will have spent 3-4 times as much I am not complaining in these tough times @ 90 dollars a hour labor we need this kind of work as well as new boat sales our root product is FUN we sell andservice boats motors but what the customers realy want when they hand over thier hard earned dollars is the most fun they can get for a buck The real cost of a boat is more math than the purchase price try this equasion price of the boat + cost to maintain and or make it reliable +cost to operate devided by hours of use minus what it is worth when eventually you sell it scrap it sink it = cost per hour of fun There are a lot of ways to keep this dollar per hour number down for this very reason there are a lot of realy nice boats for sale because they cost so much to keep and run the dollar per hour fun equasion is off the chart if all is considered some times new effeciant is a better investment you can get some great deals on 30' plus of all teh big luxurious brands list goes on and on and yet a 26' hard top aluminum safe off shore in big water with a nice ride will burn 1 gallon of gas in two hours of trolling put 500 hours on one in a year vs a carburated 30' glass boat with a pair of 454s and the gas alone just more than made the payments for you at the end of the day the best boat for any one. Is one he or she can afford to run after he buys it there is nothing wrong with a good used boat we can only hope to add more people out there enjoying our great fishery teaching young people how to have fun on the water it realy is all about the FUN!! Thanks for looking at my boats they might not be as far out of reach as a lot of guys think A new boat should not be totally out of the question.
