All my research before taught me not to expect soft targets in sidevu or high frequency. SideVu purpose was for structure...so I've read. I don't pick up much in the water column in 455 downvu. 260 downvu is great and really helps tell what is bottom vs what is fish,bait compared to chirp...

That's how I change it on my 1243. Haven't seen any structure worth sharing today.

I'm on the boat now, when I get a chance I send a pic of the frequency option

I'll try and take some shots today while im out. In your photo at 13 feet of water, you should try the 455hz frequency. Much past 20 just stay on 260hz. Garmins website shows all the gt51s as 455 capable. Lots of settings to play with, I dropped my scroll speed a bit and the imaging cleaned up...

So the transom mount gt-51 can run 455 but the other can't?? I'm run 455 occasionally on mine, it's notuch use past 30 feet.

Any better in the 455hz at that depth??

Which drains did you use bassey?

What pitch for each engine smoky??

my 225 witha 15 pitch yamaha 3 blade pushes my boat like so: 6100/39 mph 5000/ 30 mph 4800/ 28 mph 4600/ 26 mph 4400/ 24 mph 4200/22 mph (tabs to help stay on plane) 4000/20mph, struggles to stay on plane but will if conditions are okay and i trim the leg down, tabs down. Plan is to try a 15...

Canada pricing! There is a 2019 for 541000, 2015 with bulkhead for 462000 and a 2007 for 219000...Those are the canadian listed 330s. (west coast) There is a 2020 in the US for 449000. What are they new? 600?? At least the 2019 and 2020 i mentioned have twin 425s. That stuffs all out of my...

I don't live far from that boat, theres also an islander around here with a custom hard top/sides. Boat looks rough otherwise... https://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1999/grady-white-268-islander-3834672/ I don't do quite enough winter boating to want a full cabin. I was out over Christmas for a...

In my ever growing case of 2 footitus, came across this custom build https://www.yachtworld.com/boats/2015/grady-white-330-express-3827443/ A 330 express with a bulkhead?!

So its normal to have the little gap at the top of the bracket?

Id trade 6-12 inches of deck space for cabin space on my seafarer. Could gain it back by adding a touch to the beam. I Its a shame they didnt keep something between the marlin and gulfstream. Surely something like the islander would still sell! Take the best of the sailfish, islander, voyager...

Just finished a day of scrubbing after 8 days in the water. Happy to say i get rid of a couple rust stains everytime I wash it. Finally got some starbrite, that helped out Almost time to get brave with a polisher or pay someone to do it for me... As far as wax, what surfaces don't get wax??

Had this magnificent creature in my traps today, didn't get the pictures I want. Opened the trap on the swim grid and it didn't waste anytime moving on.

I have a 228, just north of you in howe sound, BC. Boat runs great, I haven't pushed it's limits in big seas yet but it's seems far more capable than the size indicates. Its very easy to run, has no bad habits that I have found It's just a pleasure to be on. My only real complaint would be the...

Finally got my 1243 Garmin...this thing is huge! I measured ten times before buying,So I suspected it wasnt going to fit anywhere. Either way, was shocked at size of the screen. It didn't fit in the electronic box, or on the face of it (a 943 will fit the opening). I removed my gauges and...

If you do run each tank empty, be prepared to change fuel filters. Often when you skim the bottom of the tank you get all the junk out. If I had two tanks I would have done it.

Mines looks the same as everyone elses. Going to try lifting it one more bolt hole. Happy to see the weight difference between the newer outboards made a difference. I found a 2011 f250 4.2l (DEC) for sale locally, been feeling out how much i could get for my 225...might make for a relatively...
