Doesn't really guarantee it won't happen, only that if it does you have recourse...I hope it works though, I'm tired of waxing every year, and it's only the second year and it's only a 180...:p

Some manufacturers make specific bath caulk that is mold resistant.

Makes sense, thank you.

As I have pointed out, it is not a refit.

Both the washdown and the livewell will be supplied by the single inlet on the bottom of the livewell pump, has nothing to do with draining the ocean, has to do with starving a pump when they are both running. Not an insignificant point. This is the first washdown pump on this boat so can't...

Putting a Shurflo Blaster raw water washdown pump on my 180 Sportsman. Is there any practical reason to go up to the 4gpm model? Pressure differential is 45psi vs 60psi. water will shoot further and hit harder with the 4gpm but is that of any practical use on an 18ft boat where I'll be able to...

Thanks for straightening me out. You're correct, I bought the Vision upgrade for the first unit. Interested to hear what you find out. I've never used Active Captain, perhaps I'll set up the older unit on a battery to update. What irks me is paying $250 for the card and after a little more...

in 2021 I purchased a 943xsv and paid the extra $250 for the Blue Chart G/3 upgrade. This year I purchased a second 943xsv to network with the first one and it came with Navionics preloaded. I was wondering how the 2 would work together when having different chart systems so I called. I was told...

So I can assume you haven't used them....thanks...

Anyone use them? https://rammount.com/products/rap-s-knobgu

In the iPad, watch the video he posted.

I don't know if iPads are built to take the pounding of a boat hull in a chop. I suppose it's better than nothing as a back up.

May want to check the transducer cable routing. If it goes through the same tunnel as the engine to helm wiring, that can cause interference.

You probably shrunk the original to post somewhere and hit SAVE instead of SAVE AS. Can't go back so try and find the original.

I thought about that but figured I'd get my head bit off, because you won't need a compass until you need it. However, I'm exclusively in LI Sound, never out of sight of land and sometimes use the compass get a bearing on something. Since that gauge in the dash is usless, I'll put the compass...

OK, maybe just go with the Starboard sheet on top. As far as the in dash compass, yes it's able to compensate. I have thought about it being in the instrument cluster and also what the effect being between 2 chartplotters would have. I'll have to try out the 2 different locations before I start...

Thanks, already have the Thixo. I did try to find something on the Boatworks channel but didn't find this type repair. Will look again. It's not depth but room side by side for the two potters. There will be 2 Garmin 943's, side by side. Compass will be removed and replaced with an in-dash...

I'm taking it out to fit another chartplotter up top. I have the gelcoat and stuff so shouldn't be that bad. What do I put in the backed up hole under the wood plug? Can I use some Thixo and push the plug down into it then glass on top?

I'm removing the compass from the top of my 180's console and want to fill in the hole properly. What's the correct materials and procedure? It looks like it's 5/8" plywood under the gelcoat, sort of like this pic I lifted from another thread.... I assume I'll screw some temporary backing...

Probably still have to replace the bang cap....
