    California emissions laws

    What are the rules on registered addresses? Would it be possible to get a PO box in the neighboring state and have it registered there? Apparently Maine has a program that lets you do that with trailers.

    Adding Aux Fuel Tank - What should I do?

    I'm also watching. The patriot only has a 13 gallon tank. An alternative switch could be a push button like the starter switches and old style high beam switch. It'll take a minute or two but you'll never worry about forgetting to turn it off.

    Beach camping

    Is there any camping on the bay side?

    Surf fry

    Even though it is a bad idea to hit Port Aransas on memorial day weekend I'll be heading down there tomorrow. Leaving the gear trailer and packing light to make it easier to get around.

    I built a whole trailer around hauling a kayak and gear that was secured in such a way that sticky fingers would have a challenge.

    Battery isolators?

    You could also look at the onboard charge controllers for marine deep cycle batteries. Charges your trolling motor battery when the engine is running but isolates when it isn't. It let's you run different battery capacities, types and demands trouble free.

    Traction Board Review

    I've got one. Based on the pictures, the boards look very similar to the ones I've seen in construction and utility applications as crane/bucket truck stabilizer pads. Is it the same or similar material just smaller?
