It's funny you mention a cat. That is the next build I think. Oldest son is convinced they're the best. The guys that have them seem to believe...
Well, that pretty much gives me my answer. I did take the 2 strokes off, changed from 20" shaft to 30". The dealer talked me into going to the...
My son has discovered walleye fishing and claims electric is the only way to go?
I'd really like to pair it with the trimmable surface drive. Multiple reasons, but less load is a good portion. That trimmable drive being able to...
Understood. Most of our fishing is trolling. There have been days that I never started the main motor. Just used the trolling kicker. But it's a 2...
Mr. E, that's one of the questions. My brother says his Prius does very well where he lives. Steep long grades and high winds on the interstate...
Hello gang, I've been pondering going electric or hybrid on the boat I've been building. I had planned on a 250hp outboard in my original plans....
Well, I'm sure this will produce naysayers and since it will cover marinizing and surface drives and hybrids, I will just leave this thread going....
I hadn't paid anything so far. They never knew who or when it had been worked on. On Monday my parts for work weren't done yet. Yesterday he said...
Five years ago I was all fired up to make a surface drive unit. I went as far as going back and forth on this forum and emailing Tom Kane,...
Nicely done! Congratulations......

Painted, step and motors. Not sure why they turn sideways. Sorry
I believe it is 6 degree. I surmise that because its so heavy is why it rides pretty well. The hull is all 1/4" plus all the fame is as well. Its...
I bought this boat awhile back because I wanted a big aluminum fishing boat similar to it. I had played around with 5-6 project boats, bought...
Alumination, Tom Kane is a vast pool of knowledge. Look at the threads below yours and you will see his name responding to threads. Click on his...
Hello Berz, Like you, I don't find much. The Buster boats seem to come from Sweden and are popular. I didn't find any that are jets. And...
I'm in the process of building a GlennL sled. It's right at 19' long, 6' bottom and 8' gunwale. Powered by a SBC 283 and a Berkeley pump from a...
Thank you. I was looking at the Craigcat as an idea. I hadn't seen one and the website doesn't really give much detail. I found one on Craigslist...
So I finally got the boat I always wanted. 23' sled. But! One boat cant do it all. I cant use it in the river here close to home. Too skinny...
