Duck Farts on Steroids? Lol!:smt043 Trumpet horn is one of my considerations. I will look at Overton's. If there is one small enough because I want it to fit under my custom fit cover. Lazy, there is no horn. My boat did not come with a horn or an hour meter.:huh:

My '91 200 bowrider did not come with a horn. I would like to retrofit one. It would be nice to have one like the boats come with but I am afraid to cut into the hull. I would appreciate suggestions of how I could retrofit one.:grin:

BUSTMP, Thanks for sharing. And, you did not hijack the thread. Quite the opposite, very informative. I hope to get the boat off the trailer and at a nearby marina this weekend. While repairing the bunks I will be replacing the tires and working on a solution for the roller bow stop as well...

Aha. I see now guys. Unfortunately I am stuck with this trailer. What would you suggest I do as far as a better setup?

Here is a pic from the front. Also the boat sits at the back about two inches from the back of the trailer and end of the bunks. Does this seem right? I would like to know if I should make any adjustments when I replace the bunks this week. Thanks.

????? Oh I see. That is the way the instructions specified. Also, I don't trailer it covered anyway.

Yeah it is clean. I really can't shell out the money for another trailer. I'm just going to replace the bunks and make it work. I only live a couple of miles from several boat launches so I don't trailer it far anyway.

I don't think I am following you guys about the winch stand. The rope pic was the way I brought the boat home. Here is how it is currently. I move the winch up to meet the bow eye, it is adjustable. Is this OK? It doesn't bounce at all. It sits very firmly in place. I like the idea of shimming...

Those are some of the exact reasons I want guide ons. But I may just put gas in the boat too.

I have one. It came with my boat. Seems to work well, but, I'm a newb so I don't know any difference.:grin:

No I am not sure the trailer is set up correctly to be quite honest. When I bought the boat the bow was not up against the roller supports in the front. The previous owner had it roped down to avoid bouncing when trailering. I moved the winch and rollers up to meet the bow. You can see...

Yeah, I thought about that afterwards as well. I also thought about "T" nuts with machine bolts. But I think I should save some money and put it toward some "guide-ons" instead.

Yeah you're right. I'm just waiting on the carpet from Corinthian now.

A friend of mine has some nice old redwood I can use for the boards. I will be sealing them with some marine grade sealant first but what do you guys thing about bolting them up. The lag bolts like the original bunks don't seem to be the best way to do it for lasting a long time. So I was...

The old bolts did corode away and I got new stainless ones. I tried using a waterproof wood glue with a slightly larger diameter bolt to make up for the holes opening up and it lasted for a while but they just need replacing. I ordered the carpet and will look into some good lumber to use...

The old wood bunks on my Ziemann trialer are worn out. I tried to replace the bolts but they are misaligned and the bolts keep coming loose. I was planning on repairing them so I was curious what you guy would suggest. There are two 10 ft. lengths and two five foot lengths. I was going to get...

AWESOME! Gotta love the ol school Sea Rays!

I never did. I just lays it the side stow for now. Workin' on the stereo, then the ext. and other things.

On the American River with the Sacramento Yacht Club! :smt001

I was interested in replacing the festoon lighting with LED bulbs. How do I get the plastic cover off? Do they turn or pop off. Also, any thoughts on where to get them, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
