Blue LED Boat Lights for the interior.  I want to say that it’s for the Ambiance and Safety; maybe some practicality to see when night fishing ?  It definitely looks COOL!

Pics show the installation of some clear 3/4” lights for inside the bow storage, rod locker, console area, and stern storage.  I think I got the 12 pack for $10.00.

Yeah man,...  I tell ya, rebuilding this boat been a project.  It seems like we always need something.  I’m lucky to have a good fishing buddy who is willing to work for Cash on the side and paid Fishing / Camping trips.  The boat rebuild has been slow, but we’ve been getting our fishing in.

I’m looking at the Hummingbird Helix 7 Mega Di works, with the GPS and Nav.  I have seen it for around $580 ? 
 

I am anxious to post the pics of the seats I purchased,...

Thank You www.BoatSeatStore.com.  One of the best buying experiences on the net.  52” high back seats were about $330.  I called first to inquire about a coupon and they gave me 10% off !

We used the low back seat for the drivers seat with a new pedestal.  The front and back pedestals look pretty good after we took the  wire wheel to them.  The pedestal was $69.99.

Anyone have any experience with www.GreatLakesSkipper.com ?   
 

I ordered black plastic drain backs from them. I think they were about $6 for two.  I also ordered two sets of Boat fenders. 
 

The box arrived at the house sealed well, but there were no drain backs in the box.  I called for customer service, and called again; not only that, but the Customer Service moron acted like I was trying to scam them on a refund for a $6 item.  I’m willing to bet the order picker packer was picking his nose his nose.  
 

The girl I spoke with asked me to check the box again ?!  👎

The Front Depth Finder is an old Eagle Accura 240 with Speed and Temp.  
 

The Fish Finder I chose for the Dash is a Hummingbird Helix 7 with the Generation 3 specs, GPS, and Nav.  
 

I bought this unit for the Best price $530 Labor Day Sale 10% off at www.HodgesMarine.com.  
 

I enjoyed my Shopping experience there,...  I also purchased 2 Cannon Downriggers around the 4th of July, On Sale, with the Cannon Mail in Rebate deal.

What do you guys think of the Manual model Cannon Uni Troll 10 STX ?  
 

The Arm extension is Sweet,...  I also picked up a couple of Cannon Sport Troll Downriggers off of CraigsList for $125 (with a pair of Downrigger rods/Okuma reels).  
 

I purchased 2 New Depth Counters from www.Fish307.com for the Sport Trolls.  
 

I’m curious to know more about Downrigger mounting positions.  What is the optimal position to run 4 downriggers ? 
 

I have been collecting parts to make a DIY Planner Board Mast.  I bought 2 Cannon reels with handles (parts for the Mini Troll).  I bought those parts on a sale from Fish307 for $30.  The reel parts for the planner board mast are probably the most difficult part to fabricate.  

 

I purchased clutch repair parts for my Walker Lake Masters from Fish307 as well.  I was very happy with their customer service.  The downrigger parts guy knows his stuff; he knew exactly what I needed.

Another look at the drain backs.  Installation was easier than expected with the tool.  I wasn’t sure we could replicate those parts without help.  My buddy researched that.
