    Cockpit Scupper Access

    Good luck, Fishtales. Several of us are hoping you have great success with minimal issue. You mentioned a tool that enables the SS tops to be tightened easily into the nylon housing... care to share what this is? RC

    Boat camping (sleeping on board) with a CPAP machine

    Buddy used a simple cigarette lighter inverter last spring for 5 nights. Worked great, minimal drain on my house bank. Ran the boat every day and only used shore power 1 night. Alternately the portable battery systems by Jackery, Ecoflow, etc... are good, but heavy and spendy. But a good...

    Replacement Screen

    Mine are imbedded in a rubber gasket with plastic flange that fits the outside of the window. Although your suggestion may have merit... the windows he talks about open inward so velcro inside doesn't help.

    MFD's

    I like two at the helm and one at the transom for salmon fishing so my crew always knows where the bottom is when using downriggers. Keep the transom MFD always on a sounder and keep one of the two helm screens on the sounder. I can setup the second helm screen as needed. It's also nice to...

    Cockpit Scupper Access

    Following. I need to do this, and thinking of replacing the hoses at the same time. It appears both are really difficult to access, especially Port where the hose goes through a bulkhead into a foam filled compartment. Ugggh.

    Diesel furnace

    OK I'm for sure doing this project this winter. Thinking the main unit will be installed behind the port panel in the mid berth and take advantage of the existing ducting to the cabin from my current heater/AC unit. Thanks for the model of your Webasto, Talewind. I found an installer who...

    Did you ever get an answer to this question? I’m thinking of this as a winter project.

    ProMariner died 300 Marlin

    I suppose there's a lawyer at ProMariner and after one meeting he said "Only tell the client what you can prove". So they told me the recommended specs and not a word more. I can argue about how batteries are "seen" from the outside, but I can't argue about what software ProMariner is using to...

    ProMariner died 300 Marlin

    OK I spoke to ProMariner. Here's there answer, summarized by me, not quoted, I"m just using quotes to generalize what they said. "The ProMariner chargers have computerization that works for Group 24, 27 and 31 batteries. By connecting two Group 31 batteries in parallel you no longer have a...

    ProMariner died 300 Marlin

    That's been my setup for a while now. Three leads. But manual and "others" say no. It is probably fine. Just looking for answers. Thanks!

    ProMariner died 300 Marlin

    Thank you, good tips. Correct, VSR's from each start battery to the house bank. True is the MFG and opens at 13.4V closes at 12.9V All four batteries are deep cycle, two GRP 24 for starters and 2 GRP 31 house. I don't have the CCA data handy but it seems to work ok. Regardless it sounds like...

    ProMariner died 300 Marlin

    I suppose I could use a 2 bank charger with leads to the two start batteries... because charge in excess of 13.2V goes to the house bank? My gut says there's something wrong with this, however... please advise.

    ProMariner died 300 Marlin

    I see the ProMariner 3 bank is $170 and the ProMariner 4 bank is of course $500... :/ I suppose amortizing it out over the 15 year lifespan isn't that big a deal, especially for such a critical piece of equipment. Anyone have good experience with other brands? Recommendations?
