Thread: Hey!! I did it!!

Ok. Here are the four pictures of my new-to-my boat. Notice the spider rig in the second.

Not too shabbly there Maj, looks like it ought to catch a fish to me. Oh, by the way we are really proud of you for learning how to post pics.

Took awhile but I HAD to in order not to be drummed off the forum. hehe

You are going to have to talk with wannabe to see how much electronic you are going to need. Nice rig.

Nice looking rig. May take ya a bit to tweak everything just like you want it, but it looks ready to catch a fish or three now.

Looks like a middle to early 90's model....looks good. Always remember....if Wannabe gives you advice...ask him how many fish he catches....that will slow down a lot of that free advice.

It's a '99. Pretty clean and new-to-me. Now need the operator to get right.

Hey maj, nice boat! Looks like you need to get you some transom tie downs instead of that busted orange ratchet strap. Just bought a new set myself and cost me $25 and they are pretty good. Got em at BPS. You already have the hook points on the trailer and boat. Now, get out there and show Dondon how to catchem.

Jeepster, already got the transom tiedowns from Academy. Got those orange things from an outlet store. Now looking for a net or something to keep the two batteries and the gas tank from migrating forward while being trailered. Any ideas?

A couple of suggestions would be to get you 2 battery boxes from your local wally world and mount them down to the floor of the boat. Is the gas can one of those removable metal types? If so, get you one of those rubber straps that stretch. Here is a hold down kit that cabela's has. A little pricey, but you could get the same stuff for cheap at hardware store.
