whichwaysup Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Awesome JohnD, I think I recall when you left us, sold a green lappy redfisher, if I am recalling right. Very pretty boat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnd Posted September 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Well the color was faded gray green, but yes, a Lappy I did a lot too and caught a lot of fish in. Miss that boat, but wanted something else this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnd Posted September 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 It's about 'official'. 1) I just told my wife I was buying a boat 2) paperwork complete 3) pick it up tomorrow So I'll be back in the MBG family. 02 1900V. New 36V MinnKota, newer PowerPole, newer Garmin, 2015 150 Merc with 250 hours, new trailer. I have a punch list of little things I need to do and I'll be reaching out for advice. Two right away, a trim tab actuator is broken and the bait well pump does not function. It does have a poling platform, I do not plan to pole this boat - so it may be coming off. Anyone know the beam on these? I do want to add a bimini (gads it was hot today on my buddy boat). Excited like a little kid at Christmas photos after i get her cleaned up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CorkDork Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Congrats on the purchase. Beam is 8’6”. I have the same boat. Check the switch on the console for the trim tab. One of mine failed a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the switch on the console for the trim tab. One of mine failed a few weeks ago. Different boat, but probably the same tabs. I had to re splice where the new old tabs were spliced in. Made mine come back to life. Hope its that easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
