When I key on the starboard engine- amps show 12.5 (Grady manual says this is ok.) When I key on the port engine- amp gauge never moves- no matter what position I put the battery switches in, but she fires off strong. Each engine should show a separate reading, right? In other words, keying on...

Second summer with our Marlin, and just wanted to thank you all. You helped me choose a boat, told me what gear I needed, and answered 100 newbie questions. We have spent every weekend aboard and I learn more each time and dont have everyone running for fenders and boathooks when backing into...

I saw the recent hardtop outrigger post(s), and have a related question. Purchased a '92 Marlin last year, and have these post tubes and frame tube cutouts, but no outriggers. Anyone have these? I'd like to add outriggers, but cant see how to do this without taking apart the port and starboard...

Thanks again everyone :noob I dont want to be "that guy" --approaching the slip and seeing a group of very nervous boat owners with boat hooks ready................ Tashmoo Which PLB do you have? Did not know about the email option. Thanks M

Thanks George I know the company "Bad Elf" has a 30 pin GPS antenna that plugs into the bottom of the iPAD. Mark

Anyone using this as a backup GPS/Nav system onboard? The reviews seem pretty good. Any thoughts? The IPAD screen would be better than a Garmin handheld, etc.

Thank you all. The members of this board have been knowledgeable,patient, helpful and without BS for all my posts and newbie questions for the past two years. Your advice will be taken. I will enjoy the boat, but as you said going from a 20' lake boat to this is quite a a learning curve. All...
