I can try to make that one. Hopefully I'll have my trailer re-shoed by then (need to replace all tires), have my trailer running lights fixed and would be nice to have my additional trolling motor fixed by then but that might not happen, what do they say about a boat being a black hole in the water thru which you throw money ? Ha

Well, I lost my other troller yesterday so need to get a couple repaired now. Do we have a staff troller repair expert in the club? It's an 1.5 hour drive to my nearest authorized repair center.

I've got two Minnie's, 55 ft lb, Maxims with 60 in. shafts. The circuit board in the head has been replaced twice in each troller. Yes, I know we bowfishers are hard on our equipment but these aren't that old. It seems they don't make them like they used to.

After sitting for a year (and only being used twice in the 6 months before that), the outboard on the CIRFCU (now the CURFCU) won't run without getting some new fuel lines and some TLC.... but the fan? Fired right up!! I don't miss the frustration of non-functioning trolling motors at all.

Hopefully Billy boy and I will be able to make it. The west side ramp, is that the one Jarad use to have his Poole shoot at?
