Looks great!

Hi Momma, Welcome to the forum, lots of great advice and help is always available here. re speakers: I had a pair of these for 25 years on my boat, recently bought a new pair of the same to replace the old ones. Great sound and a quality product. I mounted mine on either side of the hardtop...

Gotcha Robert, I don't want to slam my boat because MY BACK CAN'T TAKE IT, not worried about the boat at all. One question tho...are you trailering long distances in it? Could be a reason why the cracks re-appear. I noticed cracks in my hardtop (plus loose screws all over the boat) after...

You gotta use those trim tabs and get the nose down....plus back off on the throttle and ease into those swells...try to minimize slamming and your pipes will love you for it. Plus good point about the heavy trolling rods noted above......run with the heavy rods in the gunnel holders, use the...

Here is the info for the new one I purchased a couple years ago, looks like the same model in case you need a new one..... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Y7YQKY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I had MJ from SeaDek professionally measure the template (he used an electronic measurement tool that converts the computer diagram he creates into a CAD program for cut-out of the pieces) and install it for me.... NO WAY would I have had the lines match up perfectly like he did!

see my new post in the Tips, Modifications and Electronics forum.

Just had my new SeaDek installed yesterday....aside from looking sharp, it feels so nice under bare feet!

I bought one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078WZTD4W/ref=dp_prsubs_1 and installed it on the port side of my outboard bracket using SS through-bolts / nuts and SS washers. (bought separately) VERY pleased with the unit. Heavy duty, well built and solid....it even holds me (280 lbs) with...

You really don't need that....expensive and no need to bolt down anything. See the pic above in glacierblaze's post. I set up something similar, just a piece of cord with two loops on the end, hook one end around one rode guide point, pass the cord through the anchor attachment slot, and hook...

Good job on the install, enjoy your ProFish. I have the same unit and can give you one important piece of advice.... When anchoring ALWAYS tie off your rode onto your cleat. DO NOT allow the windlass alone to hold the boat in place, especially in high seas. The internal gears are not designed...

Thank you for the explanation, makes sense now. I guess you guys need to open up your motors to WOT every chance you can when you are in a stretch of flat water, all that slow trolling can really load up your motors with carbon!

I saw that. I guess he does nothing but slow speed downrigger trolling? No high speed outrigger trolling, no Drifting, no bottom fishing? The pics appear to show there are NO rodholders on the gunnels, NO rodholders on the roof, and not even rod racks under the gunnels? Where the heck does he...

How do you fish it with no rodholders on the boat?

I hope you had any wires removed from within those pipes before he started welding....

Here is a pic of how I mounted my clamp-on rod holders.

Speaking of trolling, I took off my outriggers (no more hassles folding them down for low bridge clearance)...they are no longer needed since we started using these: https://www.sterlingtackle.com/specialty-spreader-bars Who needs outriggers when let out far enough, a pair of Wide Trackers will...

I put a pair of clamp-on rod holders on the vertical section of the bow rail (where it enters the deck right in front of the fuel fills as seen in KY's pic above). The holders I used are similar to these, which allow you to adjust the angle of the mounting you prefer...

I'm with seasick. Owned 2 Gradys since 1989 and NEVER filled the tanks during winter storage in New Jersey...never had a problem. I still don't fill the tanks during Summer storage in FlaDa nowadays. I keep them as close to empty as possible and hit them with an overdose of Stabil and Startron...
