    Tire ??

    MCF replied to lineman49's topic in This Old Boat

    As agreed with the above post. Most people typically drop a size or two for winter tires with no issues. Like I have on my Silverado. You are just doing it year round.

    Sea nymph help

    MCF replied to NymphO's topic in This Old Boat

    Aluminum floors got phased in on these boats, 1992 may have been the first year to have it.

    After the OMC bankruptcy, many parts are not available for Evinrudes and Johnsons. I have been successful with MarineEngine.com in finding items 800-209-9624 Also Parma Marine in Parma Ohio, long time dealer. parmamarine.com

    All entities in NYS want to collect that property tax! Myopic politicians and officials.

    I would ask the seller prior to jumping to conclusions. If there is an estate involved, DMV will be helpful in accommodating the paperwork issues, I have witnessed that happen myself with a marina auction. Secondly, none of these pieces have a title, just a transferable registration. That is a whole lot easier. As always any buyer of anything should follow and check the paperwork and contact DMV before forking over the cash. Again, buyers need to use their heads first and communicate with the seller and DMV.

    Your boat will be up on plane sooner.

    This is a top line boat.

    Unless you are running a bank of electronics and four electric riggers you are fine with a regular starting battery

    8 hp long shaft Honda is long enough.

    mxz670ho99. You are looking in the 3 hour range if he has it in Macedon.

    This is a show geared to fishing first, not a show with hunting stuff, outfitters etc. It is a fishing show.

    As far as price goes, you are in the ballpark. Age will slow potential customers down. And trust me, there is no pot of gold to be gotten in the spring. If someone wants to buy, time of year is irrelevant because right after the first of the year, fishing shows will start and buyers will start to think.

    That boat is a 1984 from the way it looks, there is a tag on the back, right side on the transom that should have an 84, 85 or 86 in the number. Likewise from the pictures it looks like it is a 21 ft-you should measure it if you haven't already, just looks longer than 18 to me. The Blue Fin Royal Line first year I think was 1984-I know it was not 1980. That information should help you sell it.

    The community is a tight knit community, she was well known in it and by all accounts was one of those people with a heart of gold. He only lived a couple blocks away from her and the families know each other. It was dark when he shot at what he thought was a target that was at least 200 yards away. Again very said and the only thing that could come out of it is a teaching moment for all of us to think before we act.

    If it is the one that was shot Thanksgiving eve in Sherman NY, she passed away on the way to the hospital. The hunter has been charged with criminally negligent homicide. Sad situation and stupid. It was 45 minutes after sunset.

    Galaxy was a cheap boat back in its day, I would not be surprised if you found structural issues. If you are getting it for hundreds, that trailer is worth more than that.

    the 9.9 pro kicker should handle the Cobia no problem. Had a regular 9.9 push the 23 Grady Gulfstream(the wide one) all over the lake with no issues.

    As above in NYS the most important thing is the certified weight slip and then an appropriate amount of receipts so they can get their sales tax cut.

    And make sure all lighting is in place and working like it should, a plate is secured and visible on the trailer etc.

    For those that don't know, the power plant is currently mothballed. The harbor now freezes so if you haven't fished it in winter for a couple years, save yourself a surprise.

    Go look for a 15 hp, and connect them.
