I have a 2018 Tracker ProV 16WT. Like many boats in this size class, the boat does not have a boarding ladder. I'm 72 years old, with balance issues and fish alone often. I got to thinking how I would get back in the boat if I should fall out of the boat while out on the water. After checking...

Our boats are similar. If you have a cup holder up front, pull it and look this. This is a 12volt wire running from the fuse box.

My boat is very similar, On my 75 Merc I run a 13.25X15 Black Max. Loaded with 2 grown men,full fuel, all our gear, I gain a top speed WOT GPS indicated 35 MPH. I have a excellent hole shot. I had a 2000 90 hp Merc and it was a absolute screamer. Sounds like you have: 1. a dead...

Hmmmm on the paywall! The Bass and Spec fishing of late has been great.

Coming right along, should be ready for the spring fishing.

Backing at the boat ramp is a rite of passage we all went thru. Unfortunately there are those with intoxicated intelligence that makes it a miserable experience.

Here's the fishing report for my area. Been busy and the weather sort of cool. Hoping to get out at the end of this coming week. https://www.theledger.com/story/sports/outdoors/fishing/2023/01/12/freshwater-bass-specs-both-biting-in-polk-county-lakes/69793935007/

The Great Lakes is known for big fish. This one is a MONSTER, caught in the mouth of Sturgeon Bay, just off of Green Bay. I fish up there every summer for a week, the fishery is amazing for almost every fresh water species you can think of. The drive from Fl is worth it(1500 Miles one...

Sorry about that been really busy, time just flies these days. The water levels on both lakes were extremely low making it hard to find a pattern. Did not catch on fish Center Hill. Shifted up to Dale Hollow and caught 1 SM Bass all week. The fish were there but were not biting. Looking for...

Your boat will most likely come with a Mercury Black Max 3 blade, I would think a 17P maybe a 19P. My rig came new with a Black Max 15P, which gives me a great hole shot and a WOT speed of 35mph. I would get more speed with a 17p I suppose, but am happy with my setup. The 75hp motor is very...

Your new boat will come with a Lowrance Hook 2 5" Split Shot, which means regular 2D sonar and Down Imaging. Something in your price range+ would be a Hook2 7" Split Shot along with preloaded lake maps. It would be a simple mount and plug in, without having to run a new transducer cable and...

Here are the sites I used, http://boatspecs.iboats.com/Nitro_by_Tracker_Marine__640_LX_SC__1998/bp/66b118846 https://www.jdpower.com/boats/1998/mercury/outboard-motors https://www.mercurymarine.com/en/us/engines/outboard/fourstroke/75-150hp/ From what I can see the 1998 Merc 75 is 305 lbs and...

The weight difference between the Merc 75-90Hp 2 stroke and the new 4 strokes of the same hp is only 60lbs.

After doing a little bit of research, I found that the max HP is 90. What engine does it currently have?

There should be no issue switching over to aluminum wheels. You may have to switch also to compatible lug nuts. Many wheel pattern options out there.

If you have no power to your fuse box, check for a in-line fuse near your starting battery. It should be coming off the positive side.

We have a 2014 Dodge Durango Limited 3.6 with the tow package, it used to be our primary tow vehicle, until we purchased our 2020 F150. It pulled our boats on long distance trips with out any issues. It now has 101k on it and never had any maintenance issues. Pulls my ProGuide V16 quite well...

When I purchased my boat new, I went the EL CHEAPO route which did not work well. I broke down and ordered a custom fit cover made for my boat from DOWCO. This company also makes all the covers for Tracker and Nitro boats. Yes they are not cheap, but are well made from top notch materials and...

Leaving at 0 dark 30 tomorrow morning for a week of fall fishing on Center Hill and Dale Hollow lakes. Hoping to catch some Walleyes and Smallmouth bass. Going to be long line trolling with crank baits and throwing shiver minnows. If I catch any I'll post pictures.
