    Bow thruster battery 2019 Freedom 335

    not for nothing, but the marina should have called you before they launched, unless they weren't going to charge you a haul out to fix the thruster if external issues were at play. ron

    Do I really need NMEA2000?

    if the Garmin and CL7 are networked you will be able to see it on the Garmin device list (if you can see your engine info on the 1243, then they're networked) if not, you need to use a Garmin network cable from the 1243 to the CL7. you can then update (maps & software) via sd through the CL7...

    Trim tab- anti fouling paint and zincs

    i give the marina a jar of cayenne pepper to add to the paint for the thruster, tabs and motor brackets. i think the paint they use is Pacifica. seems to be doing the trick. good luck, ron and i don't use zincs on the tabs.
