The BBB can be a good source of info. Searching google is also good. I guess the best source of info is a referral from a satisfied customer. Typically people bitch before they compliment, so sometimes it's easy to find complaints but harder to find happy customers who are often less...

I would probably see if you can check the actual switch in the control arm as the first step. There's a bunch of different kinds out control units out there, so I'm not sure how you would access yours. But it could be as simple as the switch itself being worn out or defective. Usually a...

Any recommendations would probably depend on your budget. There are so many different kinds and sizes of those types of boats available. Some have single outboards, some doubles even triples on some. So the sky is really the limit. I would probably think about budget and then see what size...

Welcome aboard - nice to have you with us. What kind of budget are you looking at? Have you tried looking at some of the used ads on sites like boat trader to get some ideas? There are lots of nice center console boats that are good for fishing - I'm not sure if that's the kind of set up...

If you're going to use it this boat in salt, then you'll want to look out for an outboard that is set up for salt water. Most of the manufacturers have ocean and saltwater models that use parts that are more corrosion resistent. If you're going I/O, you'll most likely want to look for a boat...

Never heard of it. Is it any good? I found this site that seems to sell it. :) http://www.grumpystackle.com/shop_online.cfm?catID=45 -Chris

There are so many choices involved, it's almost hard to answer without narrowing things down. Outboards have their advantages as do I/O's. It really depends on what your priorities are. Sea Ray is probably a better brand of boat overall versus Bayliner, but in the end they're both owned by...

Coop, is Mate building all the models? As in the 13' 15' and etc.? Doug should be smart and just buy back the old Playmate hull and produce it at a reasonable price. They could tweak it a bit and call it the Pulsare GT. It would sell. -Chris
