Madhouse27 Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Here's my 1998 Skeeter SS17 aluminum with a Yamaha 40hp on the back. Just got my Minn Kota AT65 moved over from the last boat. I'm definately looking forward to recarpeting the thing but other than that it's been a great little fishing machine so far. Tows good, goes good. Quote
Madhouse27 Posted May 15, 2006 Author Posted May 15, 2006 Here's a quick shot of the front. This the that black rubber matting I posted about before. I ended up getting a sheet from Cabelas. Quote
Cajun1977 Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 sweet ride what will she do about 40 mph what electronics you running ? Quote
Madhouse27 Posted May 16, 2006 Author Posted May 16, 2006 My current fishfinder situation could be called "Electronics on the cheap". I have a Humminbird 535 w/temp. I have a base unit at the console attached to a transom tranducer. After the pic was taken I installed a base with a tm mounted tranducer up on the bow. The problem is that right now I only have one head unit so I have to move it back and forth between my bases ;D I've been looking on ebay for either a 535 or 565 head but so far no luck. I bought one of the older Humminbird Wide model heads but it took a different transducer. I put it back on ebay with a good pic and description and actually sold it for almost twice what I paid for it. I also sold the old Lowrance XB25 that came on the boat. If I can't find what I'm looking for soon I'll probably just break down and order something. A color screen would be nice.... Quote

RLinNH Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 Very Sweet Ride!!! I am betting that there aren't many smaller bodies of water that you can not get into with that boat. Nice! Quote
Super User cart7t Posted May 17, 2006 Super User Posted May 17, 2006 Nice. Hate to tell you but I found other sources for the black matting that cost about 1/2 of what cabela's was charging. Oh well. Quote
hootersdoug Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 Fishing Machine!! As long as she floats, the rest can be added! Rome was not built in one day. Quote
