For a boat as heavy as your 2023 179FS Keywest boat I would go with our higher rated transom straps like the BoatBuckle part # IMF14207 which are rated for 2,500 lb max load and are 4 foot long. This should be a long enough strap but we also have a 6 foot long version part # IMF14208 and a shorter 2 foot long strap part # IMF14206.

Bob, Sikaflex 715 part #SI78FR is a good choice for resealing your skylight on an EPDM roof. Since it's a semi self-leveling sealant, it will flow just enough to smooth itself around the skylight flange and cover fasteners, but it isn't so…

Hey Dale, Dexter bearings are rock solid and if I were you that would be what I go with. Timkens are awesome American made bearings but Dexter does not make low quality axle components so the part #DX26ER would be your best option. Did you have a…
