Prop plus adjust your trim tab.

Check for play in your steering. You may have some air, allowing the motor to move slightly left - then right. It will cause the same sensation as the boat rocking. Also check that tour trim tab is in place and not loose.

A small craft advisory is a type of warning issued by the National Weather Service in the United States, most frequently in coastal areas. It is issued when winds have reached, or are expected to reach within 12 hours, a speed marginally less than that which is considered gale force. Exact...

If they're dying while you are running you obviously have a charging issue. Time to check the wiring out to insure you're set up to charge both banks. In many marlin setups, there are two banks of two batteries each. Then running one batt switch on #1 and the other on #2 would leave one motor...

Yes, they crank up every time the switch is moved to the off position.

Where is the boat??? Florida covers a lot of ground.

Don: The pump is behind the panel/grid on the starboard side in the foward berth. Not sure if the inline fuse is there. There's also a bank of fuses under the operator console but I'm not sure if one is connected to the tabs. I'm out of town and don't have access to my manual but will check...

I got a Parker 2510, great boat! Then I got a Marlin 300, great boat! and a 17' Key Largo for river fishing, great boat! Then I got a Ranger 2400 Bay, great boat! I guess I never met a boat that I didn't like. :lol:

Sounds/looks like some repairs gone south.

if you haven't run it on the inside before, I suggest doing it one way or the other. Lot's of scenery - cool trip.

What boat? Do you know your range? Cruise speed. Burn rate at cruise? The trip is a piece of cake, just plot your course. Head south until you clear Cape Romano, then SSE to Cape Sable and East Cape and to the Yacht Channel as you approach Marathon. Naples on the Gulf to Marathon is 105...

I did it on an old 22' Invader cuddy. Pulled the Chevy 350 and added a Yammi 225 (I believe - it was a long time ago). At any rate, the stringer broke about 1/2 half way up the boat due to the cantilevered load. The lesson to be learned is that additional reinforcement is needed well...

Are you splitting your VHF antenna? Don't do that as it degrades the signal. Instead, plug a single wire antenna into the back of the am radio.

On mine, was located under the helm chair. You had to remove the tackle drawers to access.

You may have algae growth in the tank. If that's the case, polishing wont do the trick. I had it in an older boat and had to pull the tank, scrub it, wash out with an algecide and reinstall. If it's the E10 scrubbing the tanks, you may have to pull them anyway - but I would think the problem...

Good luck with the new rig. The only thing missing is some fish blood on the deck. :lol:

Give this a look. I've used one for years. http://www.baxcoproducts.com/ It works in the bed of my truck while getting fills.

I had the same decision and decided to go with the manual controls due to the $$$.
