Re: Battery ?? again...Best besides gel??

Zak read this before you buy. Also, your cranking battery should be a deep cycle as well, if you run electronics and pumps off of it.

No it is not. Just like some old cars it depends on what you are buying. I have no idea what what NADA value for my boat is but if you offered it to me I would laugh at you. However I have no interest in selling it. The market of supply and demand will always dictate what it is really worth.

Re: Would you protest another angler during a tournament*NM*

This rule I do not agree with, I feel it should be changed to, If the boat is on the pad you must have it on or it must be on at all times on the boat. We are at far more risk operating the TM. in front than when the boat is moving a short distance at idle speeds. Just my two cents.

Color sanding and/ or buffing is the only way to remove them. Gel coat is much thicker and harder than automotive paint. Try buffing first, if that does not do it I will be glad to walk you through the color sanding steps. I use the products at this site for maintenance.

Install a planing plate on the bottom of the jack plate, it will allow you to stay on the pad about 5mph slower and the boat will plane quicker.
