Basic Terrova for me, no Quest

I'll be waiting until after the holidays and see what I can find then. I'll also check with a local dealer for pricing and availability. The heading sensor (white puck) has been replaced with a built in sensor, as well a few other items, such as: NEW Enhanced GPS Suite Including Drift Modeto...

In the market for a "new" model Minn Kota Terrova model 1358380. 24V, 80#, 60", no transducer. Since it is a new model, pricing is $1999 at all vendors. No sales anywhere. Since pricing is the same everywhere, I did find a site, Trollingmotors.net that includes free shipping an no tax. That...

Congrats and welcome to the forum! Thus far, there has been great advice provided on your project. Do not offset motors for reasons mentioned. Have you researched (or a plaque on boat) and found the specs for MAX outboard HP and weight? This is very important to know, especially with 525# of...

Sounds like the newer motors may have the programming the prevents the wrapping.

I was keeping it MK as the mounting hole pattern is the same as the MK Powerdive my boat came with new. I'll bet that the Motorguide mounting hole pattern is different. I do not want to drill four new holes in my new boat to accommodate a different brand!! If holes were same, perhaps.

Preparing to purchase a new TM. Going with Minn Kota Terrova (no transducer...only remote and iPilot) Spoke to MK today. Here are MK answers to my questions about thrust, volts, and shaft length.... Thrust - MK: 2# for every 100# of boat weight (including motor, gear, passengers, etc). My...

Are you referring to the thread on transducer mounting? If so, that is a completely different thread/question.

Tracker has eliminated all wood (except for decks) in Deep V, Mod Deep V, and Jon boat models... and are ALL welded. Not sure when this started. I consider Tracker a well designed and well built boat...especially for the price....that's why I purchased a new one...

I just noticed...that G3 is new too! Did you add the external filter or did it come pre rigged with it?

For a minute there, after reading title, I thought maybe it was your new toon! Good thing you had the external fuel filter/water separator. Boat issues, especially engine and leaks, are the worst IMO! All things can be repaired. Glad you repaired quickly and all is well. I have thought of...

Your 50hp is probably carbureted...I believe Honda 50s were carbed to just a few years ago

I agree on the second house battery. However, my rear starting battery compartment on has enough space for one battery or I would have added a second house battery.

I'm debating between the NOCO 50 and 75. 50 is 1500 amps and is 4"x9"x5" 75 is 2000 amps and is 7"x4"x12" The 75 foot print is much larger. Space on a small boat is a premium.

My new 2023 Mercury 60hp 4 Stroke EFI does have the emergency pull start rope under the cowling. However, below is what is written in manual. "Emergency Starting If the starter system fails, use the spare starter rope (provided) and follow procedure. NOTE: EFI models ‐ The engine must have a...

Which model / size (amps) did you go with?

Boating / fishing at night can be challenging, as others have described. I've sailed (many different sailboats 20'-30' in length) at night on the ocean. I frequently sailed from San Pedro, CA to Catalina Island (SoCal) at night, but obviously the ocean is much larger than a lake and...

Since I have a single starting battery that also runs lights, bilge pump, livewell, 12V receptacle, and FF/Chartplotter. I was considering keeping a jump starter on board in case the battery is dead out on water. TM could get me back but it's battery could be nearly dead when I need it. NOCO's...
