    Anyone ever flip their boat in the water?

    Thanks Jimway. I may be a 'wannabe' in the forums but I do feel that I am seasoned enough to know that anything I bring out may get wet and not to hit another boats wake fully trimmed at WOT like in the bass boat crash.

    Anyone ever flip their boat in the water?

    I finally got my Predictor running proper with CMC power trim and have been getting used to cutting super tight turns and screwing around.

    1976 Evinrude Vernatherm

    I've got a 1976 115 Evinrude on the back of my Predictor right now. I've cleaned the motor up pretty good and it sure sounds mean when I crank it up, however I'd really like to check the vernatherm just to ensure proper cooling. Normally I'd be able to access the housing relatively easily on...

    1984 Predictor

    Picked up a sweet 16 foot model a couple of weeks ago. New floor, seats and tires. Been looking at Checkmates for years and found this one for $1,000. The powerhead to the 1986 Evinrude 90 has a cylinder that is scored with a blown piston. I am currently looking for another engine block that...
