Gross tonnage is a measure of displacement. For your 226 you're most likely looking at a gross ton, if even that. A kin to calling your S-10 pick-up a tractor trailer.

Your in serious over kill mode. I run XD-50 which has a carbon guard in the formualtion. No need for additional carbon treatments. If I decarbed to your schedule I'd be doing it once a week during the season. I do mine once a year for good luck although I most likely don't need to. Right...

Between 900-1100 rpm, 8-10 hours a day, while trolling the Striped ones. Evinrude XD50 oil and good old 87 octane.

Good fuel and good oil and you shouldn't have a problem with your Evinrude. I have over 2k hours on my 200 Hp and I troll for hours on end with it.

Here is a Airmar B60-20 thru hull installed on my 226 Becouse GPS does not give you speed over water. Speed over water is very important if your trolling speed sensitive lures

It's not only the Chesapeake. It's the entire East Coast!!!!

They didn't change over to metal fittings until 1998 or so. I had no problems removing the old hose from the plastic fitting in the couse of swapping out my plastic ones for Stainless

If I fish a 2-3 day tournament I fill up both tanks and don't have to worry about buying high priced fuel on the water or putting the boat back on the trailer to go buy gas. As you said, it's all about how you use the boat.

Not sure about yours but on my 226 the deck drains are straight and they screwed an elbow into the drain to make the right angle bend. I replaced both the hose and the scupper last fall. I had no problem removing or reinstalling the hose to the deck drain fitting. I was going to replace...

Since when?

Yep, check for the correct valve. Can't leak with the valve closed

Unless you flush the brakes the second you pull out of the water your wasting your time. Driving home bakes the stuff on and your not getting it off by flushing. My hubs, seals and bearing are 4 years old (Sure-lube axles). My brakes are 2 years old and still liook almost new. Trashed the...

The SeaV2 hull was introduced while that model was still the Overnighter. If you had a demo on an Adventure it was a SeaV2 hull. FYI: Ran a pre-SeaV for 6 years then went over to a Seav2 hull 3 years ago. There is a big difference in hull design. Put the two hulls side by side the difference...

My previous boat was an 88 Overnighter. The tabs did wonders for the ride. A 2' longer SeaV2 hull makes for a much better ride. :wink:

I put the regular 12” x 12” on mine which helped tremendously with the Chessy chop. I'd expect similar results on the Delaware

I fish most of the winter so my curtains go on in October and come off in May.

I had the same problem with mine for quite a while. I rebuilt the carbs with some improvement. Then I decided to take a look a look at the primer solenoid. I took it apart and cleaned it. Replaced all the hoses running between the solenoid and the cylinders. Better but still not 100% Sat...

I was going to say 6 "large"? Heck, I can't get one "large" in my fishbox. :D
