How to secure a tiller?

Howdy! I’ve got a 2025 Grizzly 1650 Prairie Wings with a 60HP Merc Tiller

How do I securing the motor to keep it from pivoting side to side while being trailered? I imagine I could throw a ratchet strap around the tiller handle but I worry I’ll tweak something and adjust the tiller friction lever doesn’t cut it

I’d appreciate any advice, thank you!!

Help! Reading small print

Hello! I’m going to gift a close family member a bunch of super old newspapers. the family member is nearly 100 years old and doesn’t have the best eyesight even with glasses on.

Besides a magnifying glass, are there any other good gadgets you can recommend to help an elderly person read small print?

thanks!

Mountain morels and?

Found in North Central Wyoming around 7500 feet, can anyone confirm in the two pictures that they are all morels? And when it comes to the white blue ones, I have no idea but there are tons of them and they had kind of a neat smell so we decided to pick a bunch just in case they were something edible. Also, any ideas on the cup looking fungus

it was about 20 years ago. I bought my first copy of “all that the rain promises and more” but this is the first time I’ve ever really found any mushrooms and I’m so excited.

Inappropriate but HAVE to know!

So I was talking to my mom and referred to my kids as the “Fucking Rascals”. What kind of word is the “F” word being used as? noun, verb etc?

thanks!

Howdy all!

Im about to purchase my first boat and I have it narrowed down to 2. I plan on taking it out on a pretty large local lake as well as river fishing. there will be my family of 5 going on trips together

The smaller one looks nicer to me but is obviously smaller, the bigger one has a kicker

I’m not too knowledgeable about boats so I would truly appreciate any input!

Hello All!

Im getting ready to buy my first boat, should I be concerned about parts availability if I purchase a boat with an OMC motor? there are a ton of nice boats, at decent prices but I worry that parts might be starting to to dry up

It would probably be an early 90s-2000s Evinrude/johnson with anywhere from 50-150hp. basically just a smaller aluminum fishing boat
