    Whether he recommends the Suzuki or not is irrelevant if YOU don't have a local qualified dealer/service in your area. Sure you can drive some distance to save some money, but in the end, where will you get service if needed on that Suzuki. You've never said where you'll be purchasing the Suzuki...

    Stripped down and waiting,,,,

    Looks like a failed fill job. It leaks brown water which is probably the greenwood breaking down, after I take it out of the water. I've done the hammer test on the area and it still gives me a nice, crisp sound, not a thud like water saturated. They will be drilling it out and will fill and...

    Stripped everything off her and left her in South Carolina. Going to have some fiberglass work done on the transom to repair some PO repairs that are failing. Also going to have the baitwell lid redone, showing its age. After all that's completed, a full buff and wax. Hope to get her back the...

    Seafarer 228 Garmin 8610xvs vs new Simrad Evo3s?

    I went Simrad NSS12 Evo3 in my electronic box last week. Got frustrated with the Carbon's not powering up without multiple times of disconnecting the power wire. Extremely pleased with the Simrad unit. Love the size of the big screen and even the split screen is way more visible than the 7's...

    We let the big one go. Filets for the smaller ones. As long as you remove any red meat, they are good eaters. Not as good as the Walleye we catch on Lake Erie, but still good.

    How many folks here have met in person?

    I need to update my meet and greet list. I met Halfhitch this past summer. He invited me to his home while I was on vacation in Sarasota and we got to visit awhile and check out his boat.

    Help educate mechanically challenged kicker buyer

    Only thing I would consider for down the road is possible resell value of a 9.9 versus the 8. Seems like most prefer the 9.9.

    A little breezy on the lake today, white caps here and there, but fish in the box.

    Two Simrad 7 inches in Grady 228. Possible?

    It should. The top edge of what you see is all that is there. The rest of it is just the frame of the unit which is unused area.

    Two Simrad 7 inches in Grady 228. Possible?

    It's alive and mounted correctly. Had some time this morning due to the wind and got the trimming done that I needed and got it positioned. Will clean up the trimmed area later.

    Two Simrad 7 inches in Grady 228. Possible?

    It's in, but not in final position. Mounted temporarily to use for the remainder of our trip. Going to trim the top of the box some, it's just a cosmetic piece and hollow behind it. That will allow me to pull it forward some and lean back more to access the "Pages" button at the top of the unit...

    Yep, that was me. Tough day on the pond today, but a nice glassy ride in this afternoon.

    Seafarer 228 Garmin 8610xvs vs new Simrad Evo3s?

    There is a similar discussion in the General category. I'm currently running 2 Lowrance Carbon 7's but will be going to one Simrad NSS 12 during the winter. Measurements I've taken and seen online,,, it should fit.
