    Steering hard

    I'm not real familiar with stick steer setups are the helms adjustable? Sometimes a helm or cables just need replaced too.

    Anode trim tab question

    Anode trim tab question

    Quality 100AH Lithium LiFeP04 battery for less than $200

    Interesting I ran a agm dual purpose on my tohatsu 20hp for several years untill I sold the boat. I always topped of on shore with a charger and had the same battery for the 5 yrs I had that setup. Ignorance is bliss I suppose.
