    Graph mount

    I think I have size "C" for my old HB 999SI. If you use the long arms, it can amplify the boat vibrations.

    Graph mount

    I used a Johnny Ray mount, years ago, with an Eagle GPS. It provides flat rotation adjustment, only. If you have a mount for your FF that mounts to it, you will be able to pitch it back/forth. I had two bases in different boats. Make sure that you get one big enough for your FF. Recent...

    2022 G3 17' CCJ - Rigging

    Added some black plastic along the front to mount the volt/capacity meters to. Low cost meters and kind of a pain to work with. Still haven't figured out how to get to advanced settings. The basic settings allow for Acid/Li/LiFePO4 and the number of cells. Set to LiFePO4 4 cells. Put each...

    Sorry that you guys have to deal with that crap. :mad: We regularly hitch the boat up the night before, but all the gear is locked in the back of the suv. We transfer it at the ramp. Sometimes we bring spares that stay in the suv. The ramp is at a well used park and nobody has ever messed...

    2022 G3 17' CCJ - Rigging

    I came up about 6" short on the 6 AWG cable. I did not account for the reoriented batteries. Also need some lugs with 1/4" holes. :( Anyway, I'll return and get longer. Re-installed the 8 AWG wiring. The max draw on the trolling motor is only 42A. I think the 8 AWG is good for 50+ A...

    Yes, it was expensive. It does seem well built and has a 5 year warrantee. Hopefully, will never need to replace it. MK has something similar, for just over $100.

    We have not seen an “ape-crap” moment with the MG. If we ground it, will not respond to power on and do need to cycle power. BTW, it is not like a normal threaded screw, It is about one full turn from start of engagement to cam lock.

    2022 G3 17' CCJ - Rigging

    Started the work to install the new LiFePO4 batteries. See HERE I decided to upgrade the wiring from 8 AWG to 6 AWG. That is turning out to be a little more "pain" than I thought. The 8 AWG is tied to something in an inaccessable area. :( Can't use it to fish the new wire through...

    The St Croix 6' 8" MXF has been my favorite St Croix action. It s a great all-around action for smallies. Tubing, jigging, plastics, etc, And between my son and myself, have just about every action in spinning. A fair number of casting rods, too. He got me hooked when he worked at Gander...

    FWIW: I did receive my new rod in plenty of time for fall fishing. It might be even lighter than my older version. :)

    Skeeters Hate Me?!

    Here is my last encounter with a tick: TICK I highly recommend calling your Dr and they should provide a Rx for a couple day supply of Doxicycling.

    I wish I had that problem. They seem to like me more the older I get.

    My 2022 SunTracker 22DLX Thread

    Our small lake puts on a modest fireworks show. This was the pontoons first show. Always a great time. Just some careful navigating getting back thru the channel to camp. Sorry, the longer/better shots were to large to upload.

    18ft vs 22ft aluminum boat/trailer package weight?

    I tow with a 2016 V6 4Runner, and before that, a 2005 V6 Pathfinder. I tow our 24’ pontoon w/ 150 Merc now, but before iit was a 20’ fiberglass bowrider w/ 5.7L MerCruiser. Both trailers were dual axle w/brakes. I think they both were around 4000lbs. I only tow them twice a year though...

    Below the waterline sealant for screw holes?

    5200 below the water line. 4200 above. 5200 is near permanent. 4200 you can get the screws back out.

    My 2022 SunTracker 22DLX Thread

    I was hoping to find a manual Bimini that would match the space and height, but then realized I would need a new, custom mooring cover. The nice thing with the extension is it folds and wraps up and stores in the front edge of the Bimini.
