purchased a lund pro v 1800 last fall and had it out only 4 times in the fall but noticed water coming in from somewhere had to use bilge pump every couple of hours to get water out of back.. i know the prvious owner had just put in a new araeter pump for front livewell.. could he possibly not tighten the hose or is the seal on it not good .. i called him and asked if he had problems with water and he said no and i know he fished alot of tournements up in grand rapids area.. could that be the problem or could the front livewell have a leak.. any suggestion on what might be the problem would be helpful..things that i might be able to check this spring when i get boat back from storage..i did fill the boat with some water to check if it was leaking from hull but no leaks found.
Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology. Battery powdered items will always have their place. I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!! That would be a bit loud and smokey!
That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
