Getting out on the Salt fork of the Arkansas River. ran up to the dam at great salt plains lake. There is a lot of water, much more than usual. Weather was not ideal, got rained on couple different times.
I guess im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a method to log back into an instagram account?? I somehow forgot the password. I love any tips you can offer me.
@Lucas Kellan Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
get a roller set up on the trailer. lower the set up if you can?. and a smaller boat ha. i use a roller trailer on a shallow ramp. the best. blows a bunk trailer away!
@DennisBohannan I'm nobody. Just a long time follower. I live along the snake River in Idaho, where you have been thru on numerous occasions. Had a couple questions for you. Send me a msg maybe? (Got a couple pics). Thanks - hope you're well
Dude, cool boat. If the local authority sees you bearing down on and trying to grab wildlife like that, you gonna not do that anymore from the fines they dish out for such things. U can do jail time in some states for such. Just saying.
So folks can drive by wildlife in a vehicle all day long and no big deal. Pave roads through middle of natural ecosystems, and I make birds fly and it is illegal. F those rules. That is a retarded society I refuse to live in.
The rattle of your GoPro has to do with the rubber spacer that the original mounts came with. They get squeezed in between the mount and clasp space. You can get replacement spacers on Amazon.
Well i live up by paragould Ar. And do alot of fishing on black river and current river and am definitely going to jet this year tiered of beating props and getting to stop and put a spear one on. Great clip. Thanks for sharing with us all.
Aw man, if you winch that thing off of dry ground often, go out and get yourself some Glyde Slicks from Taco Marine. Rip that carpet off those bunks and install their heavy duty Glyde Slicks and you will not have any issues winching that boat up. Just leave the winch connected while backing down some ramps, or you boat might just slide off onto the ramp. I know you're inland so running carpeted bunks is normal, but that aluminum boat doesn't care. I've owned tin boats for years, and I never carpet the bunks, for 2 reasons. 1) Since there's no gel coat, the carpet isn't needed. 2) Down here along the coast, carpeted bunks tend to hold onto salt from dunking in coastal waters. That salt will set up electrolysis and eat pin holes in the bottom of your tinny. The slicks are easy to install and cheaper than going the roller route. Love those skinny water boats, your's is dang sweet!
Hey brother, if you mount a one sided pulley/open faced pulley at the rear of your trailer, you can use that winch to pull the boat off the trailer as well. Just run that cable to the pulley and then back up to the front of your boat.
The river is 40 foot wide less say. No way around. Do I just wait below them to move on, turn around go home? Naw. They can fly off just like they flew in. They are bird they fly. I didn't ask them to do anything else.
25 mph sucks. I want to get a jet drive, nothing heavier than a 40hp but I guess going jet means scarficing top end. I feel like with four people though the boat would barely move
It will max out at 31. When hull was new I could run 33. But yes more weight doesn't help the cause. But I have hauled 10 people before. I will try to post link below.
What type of material is that on your deck? Pickin up my blazer next weekend and want to put something over the front and rear deck. Mine will be sitting outside on my river bank april-november, think that material would hold up?
how does a jet perform in shallow water when the bottom is soft mud or mud in general and how shallow can you take off from a dead stop with these conditions and curious about vegetation kinda does and don'ts? asking because of places like Sam Rayburn, Lake Conroe, neches and Angelina rivers, waters around deep east texas
I live near lake fork and run that stretch of Sabine River around Hawkins mostly. How much weight you have will determine take off depth. This boat by myself is less than 2 feet. If bottom is nasty dead leaves and debris and the intake hits bottom it will suck it up and you will have to stop and clean. Once on plan the mud and stuff has little effect. Now the leaves in the fall is another story.
It has dents, but been rode hard and ran all over the country in all types of water. I did put one hole in it and it was on my home River. Sharp corner and the bank was steep and hard clay rock mixture and it hit right in the bottom corner and broke the welds where they all meet. Didn't have to leave the water immediately, still rode that day but the bilge pump had a work out. Easy cheap fix though.
Can you run through heavy silt and sand? Does the sand or dirt get stuck in the motor? Any idea how big or deep of a whole this will make if idling in place Thanks Thanks
The newer GoPro has that info in the metadata you have to use there app to get it to display. Also my phone has a built in camera with the option to display the mph.
