I'm confused

Those pick-up tubes are far enough forward that they will experience moments of aeration and moments of running in solid water so I can see how they could trap air and then the fluctuations in water pressures while running could possible cause a harmonic "hammering effect on air trapped in one...

John, It sounds to me like it is a harmonic vibration caused by the water slip stream passing a flush pipe end. Is your head seacock connected to a through hull with a scoop type intake or is it simply a through hull with a smooth opening? It makes me think of blowing across the end of a short...

Holy cow! That is SOME Wahoo! I have never got anywhere near that. Bringing that guy in the boat must have put everybody on their toes. I have the highest regard for their chomping ability. :)

Be sure to heed Bills' recommendation to not put 12volt into the backbone from any source other than the dedicated power tee.

Wow!... What a fine catch. Those pompano really put up a tussle. Beautiful fish and the next fun part is flippin" yer lip over a chunk of that nice white meat. I gotta say that I claim a little mojo for blessing your catch in that earlier post. :D That ball fits nicely in that deck...

I recently connected my Yamaha to a N2K backbone. I simply got the Yamaha cable and went from the engine directly to a tee on the backbone. Works fine.

If there are doubts about the integrity of your boats fuel system then of course open flame should be avoided. That said, realize that your grill has a bomb connected to it in the form of a pressurized propane bottle. What keeps you alive is the fact that the propane delivery system for the...

Perfect....now we are waiting to see some fish pictures from an anchoring event. :)

I just recommend that you start doing some facial exercises immediately because you are going to be smiling...a lot!

SirGrady, Your name isn't listed in your profile but I know what your middle name is...."Determination". Good job of saving that great boat from the bone yard. With your attitude I know it will never deteriorate like that again. Great job.

Re: Finally on Lake Erie. Pictures Included Where are you? If you are going to take us along on the trip then you gotta keep us up to date. :D

Re: Finally on Lake Erie. Pictures Included wahoo....are you still floating???

I would be surprised if a previous owner replaced the tank with a smaller one on a boat that new so my next thought would be the pickup tube is too short, developed a split or got displaced in some way so the end does not lay in the bottom of the tank properly. Since you have two tanks maybe you...

I agree fully. That's why the Coast Guard has the regulations they do for all around nav lights.

Re: Finally on Lake Erie. Picture Included Thanks for that picture of Cleveland wahoo. I guess Cleveland didn't crumble down when Lebron James left....Whew! :D How are you deciding on your next leg and where you will stay?

Re: Finally on Lake Erie. Picture Included Wahoo, When using IMUR to post photos, you can choose the size you want by clicking on one of the choices in the lower right corner of the screen. I use "Large thumbnail" or "Huge thumbnail". I'm looking forward to your pictures.

Thanks for that reminder hotajax. I battled a similar situation several years ago and it turned out to be the corrosion of the ground cable about 10 inches from the battery. I was lucky enough to have a knowledgable mechanic working at the company I worked for. I told him about my starting...

I have always had good luck with this setup....

This is the way they did it on my 2004 Tournament 205.....
