The rain washed it for me, I had help getting the mast off the boat and making sure everything is there. Started making a really long to do list.

Single Axle Trailer Tire Size and Rating

First on the list of a hundred things to fix, I need trailer tires. The current size is 225/70 15. The sag like an librarians butt on a too small bar stool. I've read a couple of threads here and a few others about load ratings and such. I understand the need for proper load rating, on my list of th...

Thanks Everyone, I've started a squawk list, and made the first of many, many trips to Tractor Supply to get a "replace every piece of trailer wire" kit. Also safety chains since the trailer is galvanized, but the 30 year old safety chain had rusted to probably less than half it's original...

New Boat Owner

It's official, yesterday I brought a 1979 Chrysler 22 home. The wife is not thrilled with it, but can't believe how big the thing is and how cheap I got it for. Note, she doesn't know how much I spend on guns and other toys, so she might me leery. It was a 230 mile trip on tires that look like they ...

Just e-mailed the wife for permission to make an offer. LOL!! This one'll put me in the dog house for sure!! And NO, I am not serious, it's just a joke. Edited to add: I was right ,,,,, she failed to see the humour in that. Tis easier to beg forgivness than ask permission sometimes. My daughter and...
