PVC, show your creations....
« on: May 04, 2012, 03:53:34 PM »
 ;D
As many of you know, putting a boat back on a trailer in windy conditions like we experience many days here in the north is a pain.
And, many of the after market trailer guides just don't measure up.
So off I went to the hardware store for more PVC, love this stuff.
$16 dollars and 45 minutes later they were pantined an mounted with Rollers on top covered in $1.50 worth of outdoor carpet.
Tried it out twice this last week and what a wonderful difference in getting the boat back out of the water.

Also, took two hours and created a 798C SI HD Ducer telescoping mount fo rthe bow that work equally as impressively, Ill post pictures after opener this weekend.

Great fishing (And rescue/recovery) to all this year.
