I got a carver cover. good heavy material, decent fit. would have been better if I didn't have radar on the hard top but im satisfied for the cost

check out boat covers direct. I got a carver cover for a hard top walk around style. just measure your boat according to their directions

you will need battery boxes to secure the batteries, and you should use agm batteries so they won't offgas. I contemplated doing this in my old boat but never did get around to it. I would use the stud terminals for my wiring. if you need small current stuff consider adding a small buss bar (I...

Ive often thought about removing scuppers and plumbing deck drains into a shower sump box with a macerator pump. ive seen more then a few sunken boats where the low in the water scuppers caused it to back flow and sink.

yes that was sarcastic humour, what model windlass is it? ive never seen one that I would call fast. makes me think that there's another problem here, and not the windlass

best way to slow the windlass down is to remove the 2ga wiring and replace it with 10ga

mount the base at a location where you can comfortably stand to operate the downriggers... as far to the rear as you can

I had a 22lb delta on my 20' boat. 35 seems like a more appropriate size. better holding power for a better nights sleep is always a good thing IMO

I went with the prosport20hd too. does a fine job keeping all of my group 31 (start, house house house, start) batteries happy. I think they're all good, pick the one that suits your boat best and is on sale lol

either you are using shite batteries or some thing is wrong... either you or your setup. parasitic load? wrong battery type? heavy discharging? lack of maintenance/ watering? charging profile/voltage is wrong. I dont know you but id guess some reading would help. trojan batteries has so...

seafoam matched my 2004 270 quite well

I went with a jbl round gauge hole unit. it powers 4 speakers at the helm, and RCA cords for two fusion amps for the sub / 4 speakers on the back deck. blue tooth is great, easy to use, but it lacks the signal strength and quality that a plugged in phone has. totally fine most of the time...

all three house batteries are in parallel with each other I have a three buss bars. a switched (downriggers add-ons etc), unswitched (solar, high water bilge pump/alarm) and the heavy wires one (stereo/amps, windlass, etc) and a picture of the 2250W subwoofer that only knows one volume :)

the valve and the aerator pump have matching tapered threads (NPT). I used some pipe sealant blue stuff. with teflon tape I had a tiny drip

I have two starting and three deep-cycle group 31 batteries in my 270 islander. I do some overnighting and need the fridge to run for a few days some times. its augmented by 100W of solar and I use solid-state argofet charge isolators (fancy diode like devices that dont have the associated...

that is crazy pricing. id be building one myself before paying that much

I replaced mine last year. I took the broken one apart but the motors arnt serviceable.

hey, was wondering if you had a flare tool to do the motor well drains? I need to do mine on my 270. they're 1.25"

any chance someone has a 1.25" flare tool I could borrow?

how old are the batteries? id be inclined to ride it out if batteries are still ok condition. but if your set on having agms then get two starting batteries and then as many as you can fit for the house deep cycles. I managed to fit 5 group 31 batteries in my 270. two starts and three deep...
