    canvas waterproofing

    So a friend of mine used this stuff on his cockpit cover and really talked up how impressive it was. his problem was that his original cockpit cover for his boat (1999 Sea Ray 210) was leaking like a sieve. He bought a gallon of Bass Pro Shops version of canvas waterproofing w/PTEF for $44...

    First weekend out on the new ride went well. Very happy with the ride and the family loves it!

    I'm Back! good to be back in a Mate!

    So long story short, I brought home the new ride! I was really surprised at how well the boat came out of the hole (no tabs). it ran great and pulled hard all the way up to 65mph on GPS with half a tank and myself and the previous owner. RPM's seemed a little high at around 4800. Wondering...

    I'm Back! good to be back in a Mate!

    So after selling that gorgeous 89 enchanter I had, I decided to get another boat. I'm going to pick up a 93 persuader 235 this weekend. It has the 330hp 454 and bravo setup. very clean well cared for boat with low hours. I have a few questions: I read around and notice that these may...

    ISO - Convincor 242, 251, or 253

    I am on a bit of a budget, I would think 20k would be my limit. I know there is a 1991 251 GTX near me in Michigan that looks like it's in good shape, but seems like a lot of dinero (18k) for that old of a boat, and I would still prefer a 242. As far as flawless, I just want something turn...

    ISO - Convincor 242, 251, or 253

    Just putting my feelers out, looking for a Convincor (either the 242 which is most preferred, the 251 or a 253). I am tossing the idea around of selling my car to get back into boating. I had a 21' enchanter that I loved, and sold that to get a hot rod. Now I would like to get back into a...

    What do you pull your checkmate with??

    Thanks guys. If anyone was ever debating on putting a chip/programmer in their coal burner, all I can say is they are no joke. A CAI and the TS Performance 6 position chip have really changed this thing for the better. Hope everyone has a good winter and be safe out there.

    What do you pull your checkmate with??

    Well, Some people think I am crazy for doing this, but I sold my loaded up 2013 F150 Lariat Super Crew for the following...It is a 1997 Ford F250 extended cab, long box, 4x4 with the legen-----wait-for-it-----DARY 7.3L Powerstroke. This thing has the original paint, and zero (you read that...

    2013 F150 For Sale - Michigan

    Selling my 2013 F150. I have attached the craigslist ad and I will also be posting on autotrader at the end of this week. I love this truck, but I just don't need it anymore. Going to be getting in to something smaller to tow the boat with. http://flint.craigslist.org/cto/5167933009.html...
