I am redoing the interior in my 89' Checkmate Eluder and thought I'd post up a few pics, I ordered new vinyl covers from Checkmate back in October and finally got them last week, I have got quite a bit done already but it is turning out to be lots of work. The old stuff wasn't too bad but was...

All my toys are added on to my house insurance, I like the Krazy Kanook way, LOL, they allow up 225 hp on a 18ft boat so even the mate was OK.

My AWD Vibe is also a pig on gas, I don't notice anything binding on sharp turns but it's the same way as far as having to give it gas going down a hill. One thing I can say about it is Toyota started using a pretty advanced AWD system in 09', it sort of takes the fun out of winter driving but...

I can relate to what you are saying, crossovers seem to be popular right now, kind of like a trend, like wakeboard boats, this is this first I've seen of this explorer and I'm not impressed. Personally I've always been a ford man, had a few new chevy's and they where nothing but problems so...

Took the kids tobagganing today, what a blast, they love it, here is a video and a few pics, have to do something fun in the off season, I can't wait for boating season but this is pretty fun too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jamdm6TPFkM It was a great day:D

The boat is ready to use right out of the box but a charger is not included, and it requires 4 AA's for the controller. It does run on two batteries, it comes with two 7 cell 3000 mah NiMH batteries, it is supposed to do low 30's with the stock batteries. I am going to buy a set of 7 cell 5000...

Thanks Chris, I paid $489.00 CAN for mine, after I bought it I found out that the guy's in the US are getting them for around $350.00 at hobby shops but I've seen them on CL for around $1000 because they are back ordered, the boat was originally called a Titan when it was released last June but...

Yes I did see that video you posted, that was what got me looking at R/C boat video's, lol. now I own one, you cost me a lot of money:poke: lol I just hope it's as fun as it looks in the video's, the boat is actually the cheap part, it's the good batteries to make it go fast that break the...

This was my Christmas present to myself, a R/C Traxxas Spartan, I've never had a R/C boat before, it was kind of an impulse purcase, I can't wait to try it out, here is a few video's I found of it, enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLT8qLaD8W8&feature=related...

Happy new year, I hope you also have a good year Don't forget to take your camera to the boat show and take lots of pics:)

Great pics Chris:thumb: but where are the Checkmate pics:poke:

Spring can't come fast enough for me either, my interior for the eluder should be shipped this week and then I get to look at it in the garage :yell: we're going to the grey cup, lots of Rider pride this way, they better keep that 13th man off the field this year or else:devil:

Winter has definitely arrived on the prairies, -25 here and a foot of snow on the ground.

We've also had some snow here, a little more, about 8 inches but it's all melted already, the lake froze over last week come on spring!!!

:welcome: I don't know anything about those but Your boat sure looks like it's in great shape :thumb:

Seriously though, thanks for your concern:)

:sleep:They wear life jackets when I feel they are required, usually when we are just idling around they take them off, If I thought it was dangerous I wouldn't take them in the boat, they both know their way around a boat and keep their butts planted on the seat, they were each under a week old...

C'mon guy's let's see some pics having good times out on the water.:bigthumb:

It's that time of year when the boats are put away and all we have until next year are the memories, let's see some pics enjoying our boats. I'll start, here's one of the first ride of the year, ice in the background. The kids fighting for the wheel:) Son's first sea doo ride...

:welcome: from a fellow Checkmate owner, love those mates:)
