    Rod storage solution

    I fish from my boat all the time. I needed rod storage that was out of the way of the front of the boat but also not in the way of the bimini top. I found this rack on Amazon. It's a cooler / rod storage for a wave runner. I had to modify it slightly but it worked out well.

    First Time Boat Owner

    I would definitely take a safety course. It will give you a good base knowledge. Do you have any friends who own boats or have been boating for some time? Invite someone with more boating knowledge to come out with you.

    I haven't bought the rod holders yet and I see you have them. How do you like them?

    Shuttle slide trolling motor mount

    My boat has a half door so I mounted it in the center of the boat. Its not ideal but I couldn't find a way to do it without needing to remove it each time I put it on the trailer.

    RAILBLAZA Pontoon Boat Square Rail Mount https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DDJC798/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_ywHwFb4V0P4KZ Just got one of these to mount my fish finder to the rail side of my console. Works well and seems very secure.

    Shuttle slide trolling motor mount

    I wasn't able to use it because I didn't have enough front deck space. It's a very nice looking product and I definitely would have used it if I had the space.

    What did you name your boat?

    1st boat was an Avalon with a 9.9hp called "Jersey Creeper". 2nd boat was an older boat in not the best shape named "uncertainty " we weren't certain if it would start or float. We got our 3rd boat mid August no name as of yet but we'll figure it out.

    Picked up the new boat

    I live in NJ. I will be trailering to round valley reservoir near my home. I plan on taking it to a few other lakes a little further away and vacations.

    Trolling Motor Help Needed

    I found www.shuttleslide.com yesterday. Looks like a great product. They even put me in contact with someone who mounted one on his pontoon boat. I'm going to give it a try.

    Shuttle slide trolling motor mount

    I think I have seen pics of your install. Looks sharp and up until an hour ago I was going to copy your idea. I may reach out to you with a few questions on hw you did it if you don't mind.

    Shuttle slide trolling motor mount

    Came across this mount today. Couldn't find any pics of one mounted to a pontoon. It is mentioned on this site once but no directly. I want my trolling motor to go off the side but would hate having it stick out when docking. This would work but can't find many reviews. I would hate to drill...

    Shale stone interior color

    SandSandstone is the one. Thanks for the replys. The boat is a 2019 S Series 188FS in sunset red with a 2020 Yamaha 25hp high thrust and a 2020 shorelander trailer. I should have it in about 2 weeks.

    Shale stone interior color

    I'm buying a 2019 leftover. The interior is a tan color. Looking for the actual color name. Is it shale stone?
