    HELP with Fish Finder Hook UP ??

    Here's the link to what is what on the plugs that feed your unit. Pick a new unit and we can see if the wires can be spliced. This is assuming that the unit is bad and not the transducer. http://primus.lowrance.com/support/resu ... 0#Goto1250

    HELP with Fish Finder Hook UP ??

    It will take a little research on your part but the wires could be spliced. Remember that no mater what kind of new machine you put in it will only work as well as transducer. You could get a new 60" plasma but the picture will suffer if you hook it up to a coat hanger antenna. Good luck!

    Removing the cheap look from my grady.

    I used 'Ipe. Its as hard as steel. It won't rot. It won't burn. Bugs won't eat it. IT WILL NOT FLOAT. Maintinance is not too hard. I just wipe it down with linseed oil. All the pieces I used were left over from a flooring job. And yes I'm an old guy and prefer wood trim. :shock:

    Grease Fittings on a Yami 225 SSII (OX66) Year 1998

    The shaft the motor steers with is called the king pin. It has one fitting near the bottom. If it's never been greased it will take a lot to get it to push grease out the top. It will push water out first.

    Battery charger wiring

    you should have 2 pair of batteries. Each pair is connected in parallel. One side of the charger goes to each pair. It won't matter which one of the pair you connect to, it will be the same. There should be 2 seperate green lights on the charger. One for each pair. I hope that helps.

    Jerky Trailering

    weighing the trailer on a platform scale like the ones at truck stops and recycling centers will get you the true weight. 5-7% has its limits. I would not go less the 400# if possiable or over 800#. If the brakes are cycling you may have a bad shock/dampner in the hitch

    2kw of 4kw radar? for 228 Seafarer

    Plymouth, It wasn't intended to be mean at all nor did I want to sound as though I was bragging about $200K It just seems funny to me how so many people will buy a Lexus and worry about the price of the floor mats. Same way I've heard people complain about a several thousand dollar all in one...

    2kw of 4kw radar? for 228 Seafarer

    The array only weighs about 8-10# the 6' maybe 10-12# The 6' will go on the 6KW scanner. The 12KW I think just runs on a higher voltage. I don't think there is a weight differance.

    2kw of 4kw radar? for 228 Seafarer

    I have the 4' on mine and it looks fine up there. At the time I installed it I should have gone with the 6' When you're outfitting a $200,000 rig with $10,000 of stuff what difference does $300 make? With the 6KW and 4' array I can find 2 or 3 birds 3 miles away

    Why are Gradys so popular up Northeast vs South??

    if you count the fishing season and the amount of coast line Florida has more fishable days from fishable ports then the entire rest of the east coast. IMHO
