    lexan or Plexiglass?

    Thanks. I see the MR10 lexan on Ebay . I assume that is the one that has the uv protection. I have to make it bend just a little so I hear it will without heating it up. although I can heat it if needed. I can get the MR10 tinted in gray or bronze. I'm thinking the gray . The boat is blue and...

    Entertainer Rebuild

    I was looking around in here at different treads and found that the boat I got has been in here a couple of years ago. W Vaughan's boat. Good to see the work that was already done.

    Trailer size

    I'm looking for a trailer for my 80 entertainer. The trailer that its on now is not worth saving. Rusted through. I'm on a budget and I seem to be finding more 19 ft boat trailer than bigger ones. The one its on now is 21 ft from the hitch to the lights. I've found one that's 20 ft. My...

    Entertainer Rebuild

    I'm hoping to wet sand and polish does the job. I'm on a budget with this build. Been looking for a trailer to start with but not finding the right length or price. I wonder if I can put this boat on a 20 ft trailer safety?
