    Bow walkaround dimensions

    Are you up there for fishing season or are you working up there? If you are going to be fueling your boat at different questionable sources like some of the small villages or stored fuel transferred by cans and barrels then do yourself a favor and fuel your boat using one of these. Kind of a...

    Bow walkaround dimensions

    Cool place to have your boat. I spent lotsa time in the 70s on Prince of Wales logging. Gets pretty fishy up there in the summer. If that larger size is just a little too tight to drop into the recess you can heat the plastic tub along its edges and it will conform to the shape of that channel...

    Don't change the length, just drop the bolt out of one end. That will only work if you have a single steering cylinder. If there is a cylinder on each engine it won't help you. If you do have two cylinders and have been planning to bleed the steering then you can move them by letting oil out...

    It's just like when the ashtray gets full in your Bugati....it's time to trade it in. When you have that insurmountable problem on your 232, just sell it to me and buy a new one.:)

    Error in converted waypoint files. Possible?

    Hookup1, Thanks a million for helping me with this. I've got to admit it was a little scary deleting all those waypoint Xs while not having confidence that I had got the new info properly loaded onto a new card. Thankfully it all worked out and I now have names in the list so I can pick out a...

    Error in converted waypoint files. Possible?

    Yes! And even the names are there. How did you find them after all this time? The ones you saw that have no names are just waypoints I made while traveling and saw interesting showings on the sounder to come back to. Just likely spots to try when I am in the area and have the time. Sometimes...

    Error in converted waypoint files. Possible?

    Yeah, Frank I remember you doing that for me. I can't remember the details but I couldn't get things to work. Doesn't really matter now cause I got rid of that boat. I now Have a e127 Raymarine running Lighthouse II . I thought it was nice of Raymarine to do that for me for free but I lost the...

    Error in converted waypoint files. Possible?

    I talked to the tech at Raymarine and he had me send the info about the plotter that I have and which operating system it uses insluding the update number and the serial number of the unit. When I enter a lat/long here in the driveway it accepts and displays decimal degrees. I was just...

    Error in converted waypoint files. Possible?

    I created the card using an older C series plotter that was on the boat that I was fishing. Actually, setting the waypoints while on the location with the boat. I kept the card but I can't read the lat and long on the CF card because my computer won't open it.

    Error in converted waypoint files. Possible?

    Recently I sent a Compat Flash card with Raymarine FSH files on it so they could convert them to GPX files on a SD card so my Lighthouse II system on my e127 can read them. I got them back with no charges, which was nice, but I find that the names of the waypoints are missing. They are just...

    You can bet the farm that the new owners have their bottom line in focus more than they do upholding the attention to quality. I hope I'm wrong but buying Asian products to build things is a huge temptation. Like stainless steel hardware that rusts like ferrous steel. Aluminum that corrodes like...

    Mooring Tricks To Keep The Gulls Away

    A friend did this same thing only he used a piece of an old gill net and tied strips of tin foil looking strips of flimsy plastic that fluttered in the wind. It was long enough to drape the whole boat and he put dowels from Home Depot in the rod holders and tied the net up high so stuff would...

    Anti Siphon Valve

    If you have an outboard engine, you do not need that in the system. Just remove it and connect the barb fitting directly to the elbow.

    2020 Suzuki 9.9 kicker question

    I think you are on the right track Lucky. If it ran fine without overheating before you had work done and now overheats ever since the work was done, it's a pretty good bet something was done wrong. Being professional doesn't mean mistakes can't be made. While you are waiting for the impellor...

    Opinions needed on Etec

    Well, so far ....2 in the + column.....1 in the -- column.....1 on the fence. Still in a bit of a quandary. Not a lot of weighted opinions yet. Mulling it over.
