DHP Enterprise [478-1291] 5817 Common st. This is several blocks south of Cowboy's
on the east side of the road. It is a small building and sign is not very big....look for a few boats inside a fence.

They are authorized repair shop for Minn Kota and maybe other brands.

What is wrong with your TM?

DHP has moved to a large metal building behind that old cinder block building. Be careful the road construction is a Biatch on Common.

Yea, I forgot about the construction.......went that way ~6 months ago. Took an extra 10+ minutes to get passed that area.

Thanks for the tip.

Was fishing on Sunday with two jackaloons. Jackaloon number 1 was in the front of the boat. Jackaloon number 2 was in the back of the boat. I was in the middle drinking beer and still outfishing both jackaloons.

We got to change spots and Jackaloon 1 pulls in the trolling motor. Instead of turning the handle to the inside of the hull, he leaves it to the outside so it extends off the edge of the boat.

Jackaloon 2 fires up the outboard and rubs an old wood cluster pile even as I was yelling "GO RIGHT! GO RIGHT!" The trolling motor handle got snapped back and broke a contact inside the head.

Want to know the worst part?

Neither Jackaloon 1 nor 2 were drinking.
