Thats a very interesting feature. It kinda sounds like you need to speak with a Furuno tech to get to the bottom of that glitch. I do wonder if it hangs up in both port and starboard hardover situations or only in one direction?

Ekea, you don't know it yet, but you don't want to do that. If you do do that, then the day will come when you will say, "I don't know why I didn't listen to those guys".

I am not familiar with the ability to hold boat attitude in a back-troll situation with the AP. A cool feature for sure. Let us know what is causing the snafu if you find the answer elsewhere.

The pickup scoop under the boat gets pressurized when at speed, forcing water up, through the seacock, into the livewell. You need to either close the seacock or close the flow adjuster valve inside the livewell. That is normal, what you are experiencing. The pump is a simple...

On a Raymarine AP in the commissioning phase, there is a choice of how many degrees do you want the AP to steer stop to stop. Yours may have that choice and if it gets beyond the set range, it may not be willing to try until you bring it back into its range. Just a guess.

With a bicycle inner tube, a knife, a few zip-ties and some ingenuity, you can make a good guard over your connections. It doesn't have to be commercially made to be legal. If you want something a little more robust, use a bicycle tire instead.

Thanks for teasing us with those peeks at your corner of paradise trapper.

Send a PM to KY Grady and explain your situation.

Just remove the flapper on your original through-hull and heat the hinge area carefully untill it gets relaxed. then let it cool in a slightly negative attitude. Grady put good bronze fittings on. I would advise against replacing with plastic. Especially if it is from China. Just...

Thanks for clearing that up. So that black hose next to the pump is the deck pump-out for the head.

wrxhoon, I can't quite visualize just where you mounted your pump. Do you have a picture with a little wider view so I can get my bearings?

CLR may help. It's corrosive on some metals so flush with water soon.

To tell the truth, I have never been fishing on a boat with Helm Master. The extent of my knowledge about it is standing on the fuel dock one day and a guy with a 36 foot center console was maneuvering in to get fuel and the commotion it caused was considerable. The noise of the engines shifting...

If your transom is sound, I wouldn't hesitate were I, you.

If you are planning to fish while Helm Master is holding your position, you will only catch deaf fish. Way too noisy to fish around. My $.02.

I use that stuff on my vinyl fence and pavers in the shade. It's bleach.

How about this...

Why am I seeing what appears to be shrinkage or curing cracks when I zoom in on picture #1? Also when zoomed in on picture #2 there appears to be some gaps where the repair putty didn't adhere to the tube. Looking at the tube itself, it appears quite thin-walled. Is it the tube recommended by...
