Wes, Have you tried the building basement? Surely there must be a corner down there somewhere that your building super would let you use. You can stand your...
I can empathize with the guy whose porta bote wouldn't fit in the elevator (even diagonally? -- from corner of the floor to the opposite ceiling?) I formerly...
Hi Wes, Well that's what I get for making jokes. Apologies Chris W. ... have had two heart attacks....but hey, a little exercise shelling 45lbs up six flights...
Yes the basement is an option, it will have to be in a locked room....I will not have the key and will have to make arrangements the day before.... I still...
Wes, I have no affiliation with the Porta-Bote company. I own a 12ft PB and would like to see you be able to enjoy your 8ft. I know how living in cramped...
Dan I measured the elevator, the problem is that I was told and the website varified that the boat was 8ft 9in folded.....it's not.....it's 9ft 3 and 1/2...
Wes, You have every right to be upset. I would be very upset too if I based my purchasing decision on information that a company put on it's web site and when...
Please call me @ 1(800) 227-8882. In the meantime we are doing some measuring ourselves. Thanks, Sandy ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...

I am planning to purchase the brackets to attach to my RV. Can anybody tell me if they have attached the brackets and to the roof? , side?, or had them...
David, I don't have an RV but I understand the recommendation is to take your RV to a dealership and explain to them what you need and let them determine the ...
... Hi David I attached the brackets to the side of my bus. Because I have done all the work on the bus myself I knew where the bracing was on the sides and...
... See message #3678 for another option. I had clearance under my 5th wheel to store the boat. To protect it from road debris, I semi-enclosed it. See...
Why does the yellow CG sticker on my new 12' say the max is 2 Hp and the sales info says 6 Hp max? I'm using it with an 1976 Evinrude 6 Hp and the combination...
Please read the plate below that states: "This boat will accommodate an engine whose weight does not exceed 54 pounds". This supplants the hp rating on...
Steve, There was one listed in the ADN a few weeks ago. It was a 12' model (green) that was listed for ~$1000 (only used a few times as I recall). Try a...
Portatech, time, even if it is 30 years, doesn't make it right. I found the response a bit flippant. What authority does the sticker have...certified NMMA??...
I don't understand this either, I have the 9ft boat, (factory calls it 8ft, it measures 9ft), it's plate says nothing over 35lbs and not to go more than...

I have a question, what happens if you drill a hole in the transom? I need to drill a 3/8 hole in the top of the transom.....what about drilling into the...
That is too funny! I think it would work better with a bow platform. Looks like Norm created a bow platform and posted pictures in the group Photos. Norm,...
Glad to share. I've sent a couple of notes today that never reached the board so I think Yahoo's spam blocker got me. Maybe this one will go through.. The...
Hi Jeff, take a look at the photo folder "Norm's Boat". I made carpeted platforms for my 12 footer that cover from the center seat to the bow. They're great...
Thanks Norm. I think this might be the ticket to seal the deal with the wife! Looks like your other message just hit the boards. How do you attach the marine...
I stretched and stapled it. I think you might get by without dieting. One other thing, although this was exterior grade ply, I gave it 2 coats of Varathane...
Glad to share. I posted a reply earlier today and it got lost in cyberspace, so I'll try again.. The platforms are 1/2" or 5/8" ply, can't recall what I used....
