      ANYTIME Jim!!
      Nice set up. The new trollers have I.R. wireless GPH control too but pricey!! This weekend I get my new old boat. A 1962 Scott Fisherman
      14′ glass boat. It needs restoring but that’s half the fun. It will get gel coated to look like new again.
      I’m sorry for the hijak but I’m excited. It is coming from Wisconsin to Arizona. Yes shipping was expensive.

            Beautiful site! I hope all had a good time. Cant wait to do the same, have my sites booked for late this summer and early fall.
            I really appreciate the time you took in getting those dimensions and the photos of the trailer by itself

                Nice boat! You will find you need more hp though. Always can tell a 5 or 7.5 hp motor coming. It is always screaming full throttle as trying to get it to go faster. Those have a rod about to go & no carbon. Sorry to be a bummer but if you enjoy the 5.5hp have a ball. The boat looks great
                too.

                  don’t know what you mean they are screaming and have a rod to go but my motor is super quite and it only reving at 3950rpm pushes that little boat just fine at 14mph,good enough for what i want to do with it.if i want to go fast i will use my 1965 mfg with a 73 50hp johnson and speed around at 32mph. 🙂
