    I will send you some pics it is actually a 1-1/2 size rather than a double and I will replace the hardware before I give it to anybody.

    Any red tide issues down there? I decided not to go down in October because the fishing will suck.

    Hang with wifey and kiddos, and take the boat out one more time to run the gas out of it plus winterize it after.

    Psst buddy. You're doing it wrong! You are supposed to fill it up with nonethanol fuel. At least that is what they say, whoever they are.

    I'm with you. I run mine down as far as I can and then winterize.

    I have to replace a tie rod end in the Ranger, find out why the trailer ball doesn't want to come out of the hitch, take down an old pasture fence, mow the lawn, pick apples. I THINK that is all.....

    I run my can too about a quarter tank, idle down and add a half a pint of 2 cycle oil so the mix rate is way high, run it for 10-15 minutes and shut it down, no need to fog.

    When I made my comment, I wasn't even considering an outboard motor. Sota, I like that idea for 2 stroke engines.

    Man I have been doing mineral spots sense early summer and know I hope I’m not late but I need to do a couple of mock scrapes they seem to really work just looking for a little input on what name brand scent to use or would it be best to use a dripper dispenser looking for some feedback
