Popular Post Moderator Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Good point ! If you do have the hub attached to the spare, it must be greased and sealed on the stand. The wheel will spin so that has to be locked with a zip tie. All good stuff that takes years to figure out unless we bring it up. BTW, I leave my trailer tub in the truck. Twice now I have seen a Pathfinder or hewes broken down and stopped to help. Helped two guys and left my star wrench and small floor Jack. Both guys sent me checks to replace. Getting a flat and being on the side of the road is always inconvenient.. Being a Good Sam always works ! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02 Tex Pathy Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 Caught some monsters at the local lake hold the fish out in front of you to make them look bigger… to be honest this lake is not known for fishing but it is the closest (30 minutes) place for me to get on the water. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RacerxV6 Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 Well, I sat next to the window for several days and ended up having to call Cabela’s because my bait tank never delivered. Finally got it and then I built a Venturi to super oxygenate the water. IMG_5724.MOV 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoneyB, I know it's too late now, but when I needed to replace my fender boards and carpet, I replaced with black starboard and left off the carpet. It looks good and is still there after about 8 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HewesYourDaddy Posted June 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 In the process of placing a 12ft Keel Guard on the 1900T. Installation got interrupted yesterday, so I will post pics this afternoon. Manhandling a 12ft Keel Guard is like wrestling a live anaconda! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
