Had a 24’ fiberglass fished out of Gloucester bringing it home in fall 65 mph 1 of the tires blew. Scared the hell out of me. That’s the main reason for a tandem axle. Makes me more at ease. And I didn’t know trailer registration were different in other states. thank you for the info. Tim
Got it,bought my islander in Massachusetts had all kinds of problems till I researched it and found out it was originally a boat on Cayuga. No problem after that.
Been looking for a tandem axle trailer for my 19 foot Islander . Want to be a little safer on the highway than a single axle. Why do most of the trailers I find online say no paperwork. Don’t really want to spend 6000 on a new trailer.
Has anyone either mounted or have any ideas on mounting a live scope transducer on a cuddly cabin boat without trolling motor? I’ve looked at most of the options and not to excited about them. Thanks any ideas would help.
Thanks guys I got a lot of good ideas to try in May for Walleyes. You can always count on Lake Ontario United to come up with good ideas. Thanks again Tim
I’ve tried different pad releases can’t find one light enough for small walleyes. I’ll try metal dog snap, and leaving the rubber bands in the sun. Any other ideas feel free let me know. Thanks
Looking for a different planner board release. Tried Amish outfitters and a bunch of no names . Can’t find one with a light release. Any suggestions.
Thanks Tim
Looking to put a new graph with Minn Kota Ultrex with I pilot link on my Islander. Mainly for jigging for Walleye and perch and following contours of a sunken river in a reservoir near me.Doesn’t have to be Minn Kota any recommendations? Or if you have that setup how do you like it?
Thanks Tim
One more and I’ll quit ****ing! While camping at a local campsite with my wife we were lucky enough to get the campsite right directly across the boat launch. Some of the things you see these people do it was totally amazing And frightening. Also where we were was right at the 5 mile an hour speed limit and no wake zone bouy. We watched people coming in from the lake , out of seven days at the campsite I saw three people that actually obeyed the bouy out of probably 50 or 60 boats One guy actually came in with a tri-Toon pulling a kid on a tube at planning speed right past the 5 mile an hour speed limit. Like my son says you can’t fix stupid.
One thing that scares me is diving your 30 feet underwater and somebody comes up right over the top of you and when you come up to ask them what’s going on they say oh I just was curious what the flag was.
What’s going on with boaters out on the lake? Out on Cayuga today probably 5 other boats out here an 2 of them run wide open within 25-30’ of us while we’re trolling. Not just that but it seems like people are losing consideration for others. Maybe because I’m older or is it just me?
