    Captain Mauricio Avilla Poot

    +52 (1) 998 244 9329

    He is closer to Cancun. We have fished with him the last 4 years, between us and other friends probably 8 trips total. He will put you on fish. Great Captain, speaks English, will fish anyway you want. Every trip either large sailfish or lots of fish off the bottom. Highly recommended.

    Good Luck

    Coming from a home builder. It’s very important to install correctly. This was from today with 50 mph winds. My customer saved 20K on this package hiring their own roofer over my roofer’s standing seam package on a million+ home. I had the home owners write the check and sign off on it after I got a valid certificate of insurance and indemidy agreement from their person. You get what you pay for in life. Hard lesson to learn.

    I bought the Baffin impact polar boots last year. Light,warm, comfortable. My feet haven’t gotten cold or wet. They are big though. My Cabela’s guide wear bibs fit over them but not by much. Good luck. Chad

    We fished out of Sportsmans last week. When we left on the 31st we had 10″ in one house and 8.5″ in a different house. Both 22′- 28′.

    I had an issue of a missing part on a new unit this year. I bought a display unit from the store and it didn’t have a charger in the box when I got it home. Talked to them on the phone. Had a new one in the mail two days later. More than likely not even their problem to solve. Awesome CS.

    Coming home from Canada 4 years ago. My truck and boat. Buddy driving. South of the twin cities about 30 miles in heavy traffic going 75 plus. Hit a retread in the road ( couldn’t avoid it with out causing an accident). Passenger side drive tire exploded. Tore the mirror off, ruined the factory running board, ruined the rim, and bent the quarter panel. He did an excellent job getting us safely off the road. We split my $500 deductible 8 way. Everyone was alright with it. On group trips sometimes (most times) something unexpected happens. You just have to deal with it IMHO.

    I used 250 density foam between the struts under 3/16 diamond plate aluminum. I shimmed the foam up flat with cedar shims and glued them in place under the foam with construction adhesive. Made cardboard templates till they fit 1/8 from the sides. Laid them on the aluminum and cut it. Laid it in place and screwed it down with stainless screws and cup washers. I caulked the edges with 100 percent silicone. I thought it turned out well. Took me about a day and had less than $450 in it. I had the boat for 5 years before I sold it. Good luck.

    Your going here about alot of brands.

    I use the Hankook DynaPro ATM RF10,I got 5 years out of my last pair on my truck.

    As a matter of a fact,I took them off a tad bit early so I could sell them as “good” spares.


    I just put my second set of these on mt 2500HD last week. I got 45k miles on my last set and drive a lot of gravel. I was happy with the miles that I got out of them. Cost me $216 each on the road. I would recommend them.

    Dan, not sure what the codes are in your area for septic / Sand filter installation. Here in SE iowa most systems have a two compartment septic tank with a plastic filter that should be cleaned twice a year, then a dousing tank, then a sand filter or leech field. Don’t know if you have a filter or not but it will be located near the back end of the septic tank, might be a green plastic cap with a couple screws in it to keep the cap on. Thought that this might help.

    Thanks

    I had this problem on a new home that I build last year. It was a wet hole when we dug it water with seeping out of the ground. This house was not a walk out basement. The standard is tile or form a drain around the footings to a sump pump pit in the basement. I added a second tile thru the basement 6″ deeper than the bottom of the footings and ran it to the storm sewer out front of the house (Check with your local building inspector before just running something to the storm sewer) so it would drain below the frost and keep the basement dry. This could still be acomplished on a finished home by digging along the house and getting a drain tile below the footing tile and running it to a drain tile deeper on the property or daylight Good luck.

    chances are that the finisher that you choose will use a two part staining process. the first being a spray on stain with a micro toner. the second being a wiping stain over the micro toner. I would insist that he uses a vinyl sealer and a conversion varnish top coat not a pre catalized laquer. The laquer finish looks nice also but will not hold up over time on a table top expecially if it comes in contact with any liquids at all. We own a cabinet shop and this is the finish that we finish all our furniture and cabinetry with.

    I have had two pairs of the regular muck boots and wear them everyday, love them. I bought a pair of artic muck boots last year and was disapointed. They are very warm but the outer shell isn’t as durable as the regular and have torn them in a few spots from general wear. I wouldn’t buy a second pair of the artic ones for that reason. Good luck with your decesion.

    Thanks for your help. It ended up being a relay in the lighting circuit.

    I have two pairs or costa delmar glasses. Their warranty is great. I have broke each pair twice and sent them in and they send me a new pair each time. They are fantastic.

    Good Luck
