    87 overnighter 20 questions

    I took your advice and replaced the deck plates. I also pulled up the fuel tank cover and checked out the tank. Its deffinitely not leaking and all of the connections looked pretty good.

    Installing new lowrance unit

    I just picked up a lms 522c. I'm thinking about how I'm going to install the transducer. There is a barrell connector on one end and the transducer on the other. How do you route the cable through the hull and helm without cutting and splicing it? Thanks in advance.

    87 overnighter 20 questions

    I just bought an 87 overnighter 206G with a 96 evinrude 175. I had a couple of questions. What is the "gromit" in the transom that all of the engine controls go through called? Its all beat up and I would like to replace it. I'm going to install a batterie switch and a second batterie, should I...
