Think i'd just rather have a swing down ladder :)
Agreed fallguy, and the answer to your questions boils down to politics.
Ok, first, while the drivers and captains may be young and inexperienced, such was not the case in this accident, the driver was 73, the captain...
well, gotta say, all submarines have a sail on deck but it's too hard to use it to sail.
How big is the OB? A FG boat? I sanded a strip where my motor clamps on and used truck bed liner in a neat black strip across the transom. Doesn't...
I believe Matt Layden used the "hump" or pad at the bow, simply layered wood then softened the edges smooth forming a v then epoxy/paint. Check...

Very good point! I envisioned the hook-up on still waters, about what it's like at a dock going into a slip. Running along rivers and lakes,...
Hi Barry, thanks for the link. These jet ski holster boats are what inspired the question. Of the various boats, mostly RIBs or sport...
BTW. I think I need to beef up the keel of the small boat as well. perhaps the gunnels as well. :)
