Can someone tell me where the main ground buss, (terminal strip) is located on an 89 Tournament 19? Not the fuse panel ground buss, but the grounds for all of the boat accessories, (wiper, horn, nav lights, bilge pump, etc).

It probably will work, but imo, I wouldn't chance it with a hardtop. I'd go with an external antenna.

:shock: ... Sounds to me like maybe you replaced a "drop" axle with a regular straight axle, (or vise-versa) . Even if the trailer tongue/coupler were a few inch's lower than level, there's no way it would cause the wheels on the rear axle to be off the ground by 4 to 6 inch's. Somethings...

That's good to know Bob.... I always wanted to know for sure. You might want to try one of these - http://www.goodboatgear.com/detail/2765 ... 20-%20Zinc Just clip it on one of your outboards while at the slip. It'll extend the life of the ones on the boat.

That's true and a very good point. No choice really, but to use the "kit" style. I just re-read this thread, and realized BobP already covered using the rudder style halves. Sorry Bob.

If you're in a sw slip, no doubt about it... put zincs on them. You'd be surprised how badly they can erode, and unless you take a really good look at them, you might not notice it, (hidden by paint). I've seen the stainless mounting screws, (on the hinge) erode to the point where the heads...

Here's a Southport I did a couple of years ago. Garmin 4212, Stand/Horizon combo, (gps/vhf) HD radar, XM and GS 22 black box's, vhf antenna, and 4 mushroom antenna's, (2 gps, 1 Xm, 1 Serius).

Recently did an install on a Hydrosports center console. Garmin 541S, Stand/Horizon VHF, Jenson MS 3007 stereo, (w/JBL gimble housing) 2 Boss speakers, am/fm and vhf antenna's. I also built an over head electronics box for this boat. The customer just wanted it for storage. To be...

92 Seafarer, (same as above). Besides the radios/box... installed 2 antennas, a Lowrance Global map 5200C, X-510C, w/Radar, Raymarine S1000 AP, Go-Light remote spot light, Bennette trim tabs, w/indicators. The vhf had a remote ram mic at the helm, (socket is at lower right side of helm...

Good idea 1st grady... and thanks.

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know I do all types of installations. Electronics/Instruments - GPS, Sonar, Radar, Auto-Pilot, VHF & Marine Stereo radios, Antenna's, Mounts, etc. Electrical/Mechanical/Plumbing - Batteries, Isolator Switch's, Fuse/Circuit Breaker panels, Gauges, Wiring...

Sounds like the "car" antenna is getting shorted out when you connect it all the way in. Must have something to do with the circuit board for the loran antenna. Personally, I wouldn't bother trying to rig something up like that. They do have splitters for a VHF antenna, (VHF/FM). I tried...
