    My New Mission

    Ohio state parks are free to the public along with the public waterways such as the Ohio river. You might have to pay to use a ramp on private property but free public ramps are accessible. I am not sure if our lakes in our state parks close for the winter but I know you have to let the park...

    My New Mission

    $13 to go boating for a day! That's crazy. I've heard of paying $1.00 to launch a boat. They have to kick everyone off the lake by dark so they can cash in the next day! :shakehead: I'm really surprised they don't have an ATM machine there with those prices

    Chaparral Boat news

    Bad times all around. I know Ohio and Michigan are some of the heaviest hit with all the automotive going belly up but hopefully things will start to turn the corner. My business has been very slow as well.

    Restoration in progress

    Here are some pictures to update with. It's been slow going as I've been toying around with some thoughts and ideas. I've been glassing the underside of the deck for a week now using 6" tape cloth (10oz). Yes, watching paint dry would be more fun but I hava a whole roll to use up and I'm in...

    Nice boat! It looks real close to a Starcraft. I really like the back rail.

    boat sunk

    Wow, those must of been some high winds! I would of been poopin' a brick if you know what I mean if I had that phone call. I'm in the middle of a restore and I've been debating on whether to add foam or to leave it out. Thanks for answering that for me.

    Moving Adjustable Winch Stand

    I'm not for sure what the formula would be (I'm sure there is one) for weight distribution for your package. Just curious as to why you want to add weight to the tongue of the trailer by moving the boat forward? If you have any pictures and specs (length, weight, etc.), that would definitely...

    Dream Boat

    Well, I really must confess. I was orginally going to purchase either a Glastron GT150 or CVX16 as a "dream" project boat. I love the lines on those old boats but no one would ever call me back that had any listed locally. When the Checkmate came up for sale, I called and he actually answered so...

    Transom repair

    Be sure to add more pictures to your thread. I usually learn from what others are doing plus I love seeing progress being made and offering up opinions when needed. It's still far off but as of now, I plan on painting. Not real sure what I'm going to do other then base coat the entire boat...
