Go a page back.. https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/265x-with-a-bow-mount-trolling-motor.39685/post-288693 I will probably put an elbow and vertical post to the deck on the end of the cut pipe. leave the gap open

just with no place to sit. EXACTLY! :p In the ocean, standing on a platform is not possible most of the time. Thats the issue I have with the center consoles too. Too many cushions and seats, not enough open deck. I like center consoles with open flat deck in the bow and a coffin fish box...

Round off the corners

Let me show you the dance floor:cool: ;)All of a bowrider is unusable for fishing...

The cable on the Kraken reached "just " thru the bulkhead to the cabin. (48" i think) I mounted a weatherproof box in the cabin on that fwd bulkhead. I ran the 6awg from Refrig space, thru water heater space, into anchor locker, and up to and thru the back of the box. I mounted a 60A MRCB...

calling a bowrider a 265 is like calling this a Mustang :p

Connections will be the same. You didn't say how 7616 is mounted. Looks like the cutout dimension is different. download from Garmin and print both templates and print per printing instructions (You have to print ACTUAL SIZE) Overlay them and you will know for sure whether you have to cut or...

I posted a few years back on this but it was probably in someone else's post about LED spraders and I can't find it. Ditched the Halogens for LED. I added a 3 position pull switch to the upper e box. Fed from the power to spreader switch. (blue/white wire I think?). Made it easier than trying to...

I was out seabassing Friday. Again, its just amazing how well this Kraken works. It holds such a tight spot, even in a strong wind and bouncey sea. I need to get a screen shot of the chart. We can shift and fish around a wreck or rock pile in 10 ft increments. We're fishing in 60 to 125 ft...

here is the video 90" Kraken on a Grady 265 Express

T handles are out there... Taylor Made brand I think.. The D shaped latch has eluded me so far..

Working on a video today to show the whole process. Will post to youtube and then a link here

Got out to the Klondike for a few hours of seabassing. Not great but we got 18 keeper black sea bass and a couple porgies. Back and cleaned up by 1pm

When the glass is fully seated in the gasket of the window frame, the T handle will fold out of the way. The black rubber gasket gets hard and gets curves in it. The window doesn't really close all the way. Sometimes you can try lifting the glass or have someone outside help it seat. I have not...

front either.... Need a 10 ft rod to fish over motors But you can get 6 adults in the bow seating, with children on their laps, and take them thru the Point Pleasant Canal...family fun....
