Smallmouth, Largemouth, We're All About Bass!

Have a leak in my fishing boat, what is the best stuff to seal the bought and where can I purchase it? Thanks? Its a small leak, but really hard to pin point, but over a course of a day, the water fills up enough ot get your feet somewhat wet. Its just a little 14 ft, bass tracker that is in great shape, but its almost 15 years old but only used 2 or 3 times a year. I've banged all the rivets too make sure they were in properly, but the leak may be coming from one of them that needs to be sealed, any suggestions would help and I will definelty try them, thanks.

Looking for an Anchor that actually holds!? I just purchased a 1987 Bass Tracker Bass Boat and I am looking for suggestions and information on Anchors that actually will hold the boat when the wind is blowing. I fish at Silverwood Lake in Hesperia CA, and the wind can get pretty bad at times. I am not sure of the weight of the boat, but since the boat is only a aluminum boat it should not be too bad. I need something that will hold no matter what. A big bonus would be a anchor winch that will be able to support this type of anchor. The anchormate series can only handle a 18lb anchor and uses a type of crank that is completely different that what is already on the boat. If anybody has any suggestions or help, thank you.

Tracker vs. Lowe Bass boats? I went to the boat show this weekend. Found a Lowe (fishing machine) deep-v 17ft bass boat that I thinking of purchasing. Before I was looking at the Tracker deep-v bass boat (Targa). I've got the factory specs on each boat and did a side by side comparison. Not much difference between the two. The Lowe people all said their boat was built stronger and had better real sale value. My question is, if you had to chose which one would you take? http://www.trackerboats.com/boat/?boat=3331 http://www.loweboats.com/showroom/deep-v/fishing-machine/fm175dc.php Added note: The lake I'm going to use is famous for it's rush hour chop and wakes created by VERY large boats during midday in the summer. Smooth ride out in the morning but your going to be lucky to make it back for lunch without a bruised kidney or chipped tooth.
