Re: Cost of aluminum boats coming down?

Amf hi , its always the same overseas bucks buy cheaper than the local bucks. some thing wrong there i reckon... sad fact to me is that only people who have the god almighty dollar will be able to offord 40 to 90 gran for a boat and its upkeep...as i walk thru the valley of alloy boats, i shall fear...

wreckfisher Q: how does the transom hold up with so much weigh on it with the twin engines on it? is the transom reinforced to take the weight?
i've seen boats with 3 or 4 engines on and lordy lordy talk about the weigh hanging on the arse end of a boat.

Hi i know this may seam silly, but has any one thought of suction cups. the big black ones, under chilly bins large alloy bins at all.. wet the suction cups and press down, holds em there and wont slip and easy to get off again.. i was thinking of doing the same with my alloy chilly bin.

YOu can get them from 50 mtrs to 400 mtrs on live or ded baits and once they get past the magic 10 ft or less mark from where they was, they float up as there swim bladder blows them up like a baloon, but they sure do fight well on braid wow strong runs :)
