What Machine Is This…

 were  you lean forward on it and pull up like you were doing push-ups. I see were the gym now has one at the gym but there’s nothing on it that tells you what it’s for. You’re kind of at an angle and you have a foam thing that rests on your sternum.  It has a bar like a lat bar and there’s a place to put weights on it. It looks to me like it would be for doing rows for your back but it feels very awkward. I can’t find a picture of it but maybe next time I go to the gym I’ll take a picture of it and someone can tell me what exactly it’s for

Usually machines have a label telling what they are for....  Except for some of the weight things that are obvious,   like that cage for doing squats.

It's for cleaning the floors. You have to push down on the handle to ring out the mop!  ?

 

Lol.... Smart one-just-like-silly-me 

 

 Anyways, it turned out my hunch was correct and it is a machine for doing back rows.

I guess this is a $1500 device. Does anybody use this pretty regularly as part of their back routine?

    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
    • Sketti...  not out of a jar either!
    • Lol yeah I watched that
