It’s to make sure that the voltage drop over the distance from battery to fish finder/GLS10 is only around 3%. I could go into further details about how thicker wire prevents voltage loss over...
Good idea on using the 2nd pair for front electronics. I also have a boat that had 12/24V setup and 6ga wire pairs, and I currently use one pair for the trolling motor and have the 2nd pair for a...
Believe it or not, I have had a fish go right under my trolling motor, causing my line to tangle up. I was surprised that I managed to stop the prop before snapping or cutting the line, and it was...
Since you already have 998s, I'd go with the 1198.
Looks like a fish that I caught at Gunner Pool once. At least you can't say that you got skunked!
I use the Ego pole saw attachment that works with my Ego multihead, and in some cases, I add an extension piece to make it longer. Over the last five years of living in the current house, I...
I tend to wonder that as well with my early 2010s Terrova, which can be a problem in calm water spider rigging.
My dad had a stick steering Ouachita that we fished from when I was a kid. Considering that I own a boat that was built not long after I started fishing, I guess that I like old boats.
Anything that uses a servo for steering will have some level of noise--some worse than others, and some are quiet for fine adjustments while noisier for quick and large adjustments.
Yep, it's called induction.
I've been running AGM for starting for about 10 years (first a group 24 marine starting AGM for about 8 and a group 31 deep cycle AGM for the last 2) on my 1985 Evinrude 150 XP that also has a stator...
My manager was towing his 1980's Porsche autocross race car on an open tandem axle trailer with a 2022 Nissan Frontier Pro-4x when we first launched the vehicle without any issues. With that being...
Does it have a timing base?
I just received the Ramp N Clamp that I ordered from their eBay store, and it was black polypropylene instead of the yellow one. Apparently, yellow turns brown in the sun, which is why they switched...
One thing that I will add is I do like my smaller 18' boat with 150 because I still have a single-axle trailer than can easily turn into my garage due to the 90-degree angle mandate by the HOA when...
I have both Ego and a Makita LTX2 (2-18V batteries) trimmers. I tend to use the Ego multihead with both trimmer and edger attachments, while my wife uses the Makita because it is smaller and...
I think that I found a Skeeter that is in that size range, although I find the beam on newer boats to be wider that I want for parking in the garage and trolling my thru stumps for crappie. As for...
Honestly, I don't know how many crappie that I catch per year because I didn't start trying to keep track of this until this year, and even for this year, I don't have all of the log information...
I have an Ego chainsaw that works pretty well for my needs. I also have their pole saw that attaches to the multihead.
While I’m not old yet, about 10 years ago I was caught in a storm that was brewing and waiting in line to get to the dock to get my truck and trailer to load the boat on. Since others were monkeying...
I’m not familiar enough with the Onix to know if it is better than an 1198, but I’ve had a 798, two 898, a 998, and now two 1199s, so I’m partial to this series.
I'm not trying to hijack the thread, but I had a thought about all of this--do you have a switch to disconnect the Combiner (or at least the lithium battery) when the boat is stowed and charging...
I second this idea; I installed a Stern Saver so that swapping transducers again won’t require sealing holes and drilling new holes into the fiberglass. Who cares if I have a few holes in the...
I’ve had a bow buddy on my boat for about 10 years, and because it is now worn out enough, I’m about to order a Ramp ‘n Clamp.
