Steve,
Get the hour meter made by Yamaha that has a wire the wraps around the spark plug wire. That’s what I did.

It can be repaired but unless you know a skilled fabrication person that has experience in aluminum hull repair, I too would pass on that one. Is it priced right?

I was able to send them back for a replacement although I have received one in useable condition. We shall see, UPS has the replacement now.

If that rod was manufactured in Sanford, NC I can help you with this.

We live in a very rural area, we know the postmaster and her staff by name. The last broken rod, they called me as soon as she seen it. You are correct though, most local carriers do not have the...

The tubes these were delivered in are heavy cardboard and about 8 foot long. They have all been broken in the same location. I tried ordering another one, if this one don’t make it I don’t need it.

I too have received them in PVC pipe, definitely better than anything else. Thanks for the reply.

Has anyone other than me had issues with USPS delivering broken panfish rods? I have had 3 different deliveries with broken shipping tubes and the rod inside was broken each time. I’m trying to get...

You will love the seats and the newer models have braided steel gussets about 5” long at the bottom so the straps are unnecessary. Grizzly Jig is where I purchased mine.

Most if not all LED lights have a wide range for voltage, if you are installing LEDs you should be OK. As far as the portable 360, I would not attempt wiring them to a 20 VDC battery with-out a step...

Properly sized overload protective devices will prevent this issue.

:ThumbsUp

If you use a 60A circuit breaker you can use #4 wire if the length of wire is 20' or shorter.

You should size your fuse/breaker for the expected full load current. Check with the manufacturer, they will know the what your overload protection needs to be. Then that overload protection will be...

Do you research on both, I think they are both excellent choices. In 2019 I bought a G3 Sportsman 2100 and swapped the trailer out to a Wesco I-beam aluminum trailer and I couldn’t be happier....

I previously owned a 2002 H50 Xpress which had the 16' Hyperlift hull. I loved the boat but it didn't have a live well and the motor was tiller steer. The boat was heavy but well built, I have no...

6% is pretty bad. Can you drain the carburetors? Usually there is a drain screw in bottom of each carburetor. The fuel and water is burned by the time it gets to the spark plugs. I would not use this...

I would drain that old gas out of the tank and the carbs if possible. Then fill the tank with fresh non-ethanol gas and add stabilizer to the gas before you fill it up. Even 100% gasoline with...

You need to get your RPMs back up to at least 5000. You can achieve that by dropping to a 13 pitch prop but I don't think it will help you get more lift from your bow. Mercury makes a 4-blade prop, I...

I don't blame you, I'll post some later today.

Agreed. My comments are for a 3-blade prop. 4-blade props are another fish.

The “rule of thumb” is an increase of approximately 200 RPMs for every inch you decrease in pitch. So decreasing from a 14 pitch prop to a 13 pitch prop would raise your typical loaded RPM range by...

More than likely the weight shift rearward is the difference in your holeshot. I'm no expert but if you can't shift some weight to the bow of your boat you will need to go to a 14 pitch 3 blade prop...

What is your WOT RPMs with a typical load?

I think each boat is rigged to suit the individual and based on the options you choose affects the amount of loaded weight the hull has. Based on the numbers you are reporting and the recommended RPM...

What kind of speed and RPMs you getting with this rig including prop size?
