    Too much transom weight on Kingfisher Discovery 2025

    I have 2425 Experience. A bit bigger boat than you are looking at but...... Transom is above water a few inches with a 200 Yamaha. Hulls are very efficient and provide a very smooth ride. Cuts through the chop with incredible performance. A thunderjet of the same size requires 25% more power...

    Osoyoos Lake

    The boats were steadily increasing when we were pulling out. Seemed a bit more quiet early on than other mornings. Heading to China end of the week. Will put some more socks in the freezer till then. Getting a bit better size wise.

    Osoyoos Lake

    Bait is not necessary. Pink hootchies. Short leaders. My experience is all colors of flashers are working for me. We consistently limited out very early on last year and working out the same so far this year. We had our limits of a dozen fish in the boat yesterday with many catch and non...

    Mars Water Bomber - Sign petition to ReInstate Bomber For 5 more Years Across BC

    Thanks for that. As in much of our natural resources, the public lacks education and acts/ thinks on passion alone.

    Mars Water Bomber - Sign petition to ReInstate Bomber For 5 more Years Across BC

    I too have spent much time fighting fire. Watched many bombers working. The Martin Mars are a spectacular airplane, on the water and in the air working. It is not a mountain machine. If you watch the news, you will notice lots of small aircraft..... Air tractors...

    Bamfield Poett Nook 2014- 2015

    I noticed a lot of commercial activity around the government dock last week too as the gill net opening ramped up. Must be the sockeye activity causing this.

    kingfisher vs hewescraft vs north river which would you reccomend?

    As others have said. In addition to your research, take the boats you are interested in for good rips in variable water and compare handling and characteristics. Efficient hulls with great handling translate into comfort, stability, and savings at the gas pumps. The kingfishers do have a...

    28 foot boat

    Was in a 2014 kingfisher 2825 yesterday. Gorgeous boat for a so called cookie cutter boat. Locally built in BC. Lifetime warranty on hull. Great ride. Go for a tour of the manufacturing facility in Vernon BC.

    Neat Wolf Pic

    If humans are going to take from the prey, we must take from the predator to manage the balance. For some reason, some do not view us humanoids as a component of nature and the food chain. I for sure am part of this balance and will take from both sides whenever the opportunity arises within the...
