I do it.....never noticed any issue.

It is a flush mount ducer. Jim at BOE said 8" should be ok. (about what I have for room) I do have an email into Furuno to see what they recommend. Would like to hear how close people have done the install and what their results were.

What is the minimum distance in front of the live well scoop that the transducer should be placed?

Bayside uses First Class Fiberglass in Kingston. I had them do some work before and you couldn't tell where the repair was done. It was $200 to fix 2 or 3 scratches about 5 years ago.

Can you post a pic? (I never have but have seen some instructions) I can't picture a place to put it without it being in the way or staring me in the face the whole time.

How did you cut the extension posts? I installed the Arigoni posts last year. I was thinking of taking them to a machine shop to take a couple of inches off. I'm afraid that I can't / won't get a straight cut.

2 8" screens won't fit width wise plus height. Yes, you do need a heading sensor for the overlay. I have separate GPS, FF and radar now and have to look all over the place to see everything. Will be an improvement to get everything in front of me. The GPS and FF are starting to fail...

If it was networkable I would have considered putting 2 740s in to have redundancy. Could still do that but have to move cables around. The ease of installation and cost savings though have me leaning towards the 740 and 620.

My uncle did this to his Parker about 10 years ago and he never had any chipping issues. It has faded and could use another coat but after about 10 years I wouldn't consider it an issue.

I had made up my mind to buy a Garmin 4212 (somehow cut and make it flush mount into the electronics box), then I looked at Garmin's website and found that they are coming out (2nd quarter 2010) with a new 700 series. Was hoping that someone at the boat show would have an early prototype to...

I used GE Silicone II last year, but some of it yellowed over the summer. Any ideas what I could have done wrong? I'm doing the the back hatches this year and want a better result.

Dumb Husband?

Correct. The volts drop to zero across the switch if the orange wire is attached to the switch. Neither the light or motor works. The two power sources are pigtailed together...may try to separate them and test individually. The ground looked clean. The boat is shrink wrapped so I don't...

It is a Jabsco model 60020 - series 135 SL.

I don't know the brand off hand. Can get that over the weekend.

My spotlight is not working. Have power to the switch. Don't have power after the switch unless I pull the 2 wires (going to light and motor controls) from the out side of switch. Does the indicate a bad ground or a short circuit?

The freshwater shower has low pressure / flow. Figured I would check / clean the filter. I pulled the pump but don't see any filter on the intake side. Pump is located under the passenger seat. Is the filter inside the pump? Do I need to take it apart? Is it located on the tank?

Yes, I will be adding this to my yearly maintance schedule.

Nevermind. A few "love" taps from behind took care of the problem.

Having trouble removing prop. The nut and washer came off no problem. Should the prop just slide off now? Does the second washer have to come off first? How much pressure do I need to put on the prop? Any tricks I should know.
