    Cleaning that nasty hull..

    Mary kate on and off gel. It.s gooet and you paint it on the hull with a paintbrush (natural bristle). Let it sit for a while then just spray it off. Wear gloves and don't get it on you or the trailer. Works like magic.

    Hydrofoil on 1801

    I have an 1801 withh 115 yamaha. It is a bit heavy in the back and planes at about 13 mph. Anyone use a hydrofoil? Any thoughts? Part of me says "if it aint broke, don't fix it".I like the boat just fine as is but was wondering if it could be better.

    USED 1801

    Hey Jazztime, I have the same boat you're selling. I noticed the hydrofoil. I've been thinking hard about it for my rig. What type is it. Does it keep the nose down for you.

    Winter storage

    I have a 2003 1801 with a 115 Yamaha 4 stroke. I've decided to winter store it with the fuel tank full. What do you guys use to treat the fuel as far as stabilizers or other additives for long term storage? Hopefully I wont be doing it for another month or so if the weather and Stripers hold for...

    Holden Beach Questions

    I'm sure Holden locals take a dim view of Massachusetts in general. Personally, I can't say I'd blame em. Maybe I should bring my 1801 along as an ice breaker

    Cape Cod Canal

    I usually have a buddy help me. I think it's too dangerous for my son to help out, he's still a little young (but maybe soon). I have launched alone but I don't like to do it. Actually, the thing I find to be the hardest as a new boater is docking and close quarter maneuvering.

    Cape Cod Canal

    I'm trailering it this year. I want to see where I use it the most and then I'll think of where to keep it. I'm finding there's both upside and downside to trailering I haven't decided whether the ups outweigh the downs yet.

    Cape Cod Canal

    I fished with my 8 year old son on the Mass Maritime side of the west end yesterday. We were in a schoolie blitz that lasted for more than an hour. I'm talking about an acre of breaking fish and birds. Fish all around the boat. My son's first time out and he caught 30 cookie cutter 18 inch...

    Yes it is a yamaha 115 4 stroke. People do fish for cod off of Deer Island in the channel called Presidents Road. Big entrance shipping channel for the port of Boston. There are good herring runs in the spring in both the Charles and the Mystic and people say the cod follow the herring in. Some...

    Wish me luck

    T bro, I didn't change the prop and when I first went WOT, I got only 5000-5100 rpm and 32 mph (by both the GPS and an actual speedometer on the gps fishfinder). I thought I'd have to change the prop but later, outside the harbor in Mass bay with no boats around I went WOT and played with the...
