Honesty would be a good start.

I`m running a 19 pitch stainless on same boat with an 01 ficht 200. I would guess a 17 would be good for your set-up. See if you can try one before buying.

If this helps: I fish all nite sometimes into all day too. I run on batt 1 ( an agm batt crank/deep cycle) from start to finish on all my trips so far. I can stay at anchor all nite with anchor lite,cockpit lites,fishfinder,radio and always had restart in the morning. If batt went dead, I...

:wink:

Its the same lower as yours. AWESOME!! Thanks alot everyone....

Shift cables and controls are 6 mo. old. (New, when I did the repower) I did notice it a little more than normal drag on the shift shaft but it went away after it moved a few times. I use the boat twice a week till end of november. I just took it out a couple days ago and it was real hard to...

I seem to remember hearing a while back about certain omc lower units that had some kind of shift rod corrosion problem. I`m experiencing a shift problem (very stiff) and it`s seems its the rod binding at or in the lower unit. I have`nt pulled it apart yet and want to stay fishable through...

Re: Outraged over the new National Saltwater Angler Register The only positive would be better (hopefully) catch numbers to base limits on. Apparently all those college degrees hasn`t helped them figure out how to count. Catch reports will be coming by mail once they get their list together.

If one battery needs charging and the other is fully charged, running on both will overcharge your full battery. To eliminate that you can install a battery isolator. Without one, its best to start with the full one then switch to the dead one once running.

I agree with halenalu. Hydraulics are like "fly by wire" . Only side effect on a properly functioning system is extreme cold as the fluid gets thicker it may get slower. length shouldn`t matter, look at backhoes and excavators.

Thank you.

Anyone local or run out of galilee. I need to know if the public launch/lot gets plowed when/if they get snow?

Me too.

Get used to that for a while....

I assume you have everything else disconnected? (shift linkage,electrical,etc.) Without a hoist, you will need 2 or 3 guys to lift it off. I usually use a come-a-long off a big tree branch. It could be stuck together. I put some pressure with the come-a-long and rock back and forth. Do not pry...

Everyone who fishes must register with noaa. If you have a saltwater liscence in one of the fifteen co-op states, a commercial liscence, or fish on a charter/party boat, your all set. If you fish inland for migratory salt fish and don`t have a salt liscence, You also need to register. They...

In my case, The stringers got soft and the bottom pushed in. :cry:

Yes.

I put a 25 inch on a 20 inch transom. I used brackets made by Pro-lift. They cost me 180 bucks about 3 yrs ago. Their supposed to be rated for up to 300hp. The only thing I was uncomfortable with was the increased leverage it put on the transom. I used starboard to block off some of my...

At least a mild one. I`m on a trailer and now that I have a cabin boat, I hope to cod fish through the winter if I can get the weather. :D :D :D
