check out billy baits mini turbo slammer for 5x pts. Ilander look and action for 1/3 price. Work great for me

searched in vain, nothing to buy for now

Went to the GW site and looked at what comes with new model 285. Only 2 batts. A lot of pumps and lights and options for more power grabs, power sun shade, bow thruster, etc.... That's not even getting started with the electronics. Sorry 2 batts seems light to me.

Avoid the kingfish, I am not a fan of wire and hate to lose 20$ Ilanders. Target Sails, Mahi, and Blackfin

Ordered an assortment from Capt Harry's. Been meaning to try them for awhile.

I have been getting lazy lately and not rigging my own. So now it is 3 for 15$ from Baitmaster, hate to waste any. If I can keep them frozen I can also bring a larger variety, wire leader, double hook, larger, etc and again not worry about waste (which I did and all unused came back solid...

Cannot understand why a manufacturer would produce a boat like yours without a dedicated house bank. If it was my boat I would add one, but that is me.

So dry ice test was a success. Put dry ice in cooler night before, placed frozen packs of bally in next morning at 0630. Thawed 3 packs on the way out. Used 2 packs immediately but conditions were horrible and no fish. Had not opened the third pack and since looked like it was going to be a...

So delivery time for 12v freezer was not jiving with our spring trip up north, maybe when I get back. So decided to try the dry ice in my yeti clone cooler. Follow up tomorrow. Dry ice was 14 bucks at Publix

Have to give a shout out for Baitmasters of So. Florida. Best bally I have ever used. Stays bright, trolls great, doesn't wash out. Give them a look.

just read it is12/24v dc, which would make it work at the deer camp which is 24v dc solar/battery bank to 4000 watt inverter. so could power right from batteries and not have to have inverter running at all times, another plus

no it is a freezer as well. setting thermostat determines temp reached and advertises below 0 deg temp. ad says 45-60 watts or 1kwh/day. that would be about 4-5 amps/hr run time. since i now have 2 alternators putting out 55 amps, and 220 amp/hrs of new house bats that should not be a...

Anyone ever put one of these on their boat. Thinking of it to keep ballyhoo frozen while fishing. That way do not thaw out bait I might not use and have to refreeze. Refreezing seems to diminish the bait and cause washout or mushy bait. I could pull some out of this and thaw in a bucket of...

I worry more about seals rather than hoses or fittings and am always looking for the telltale drips of fluid. That said should you decide to replace and bleed I would direct you to MarineTech, https://marinetech.com/professional-marine-tools/seastar.html They make a hose and fitting system for...

i went through all support mounts to be sure were tight

I stand corrected, it seems installing one auto pilot does not an expert make. From Garmin Reactor 40/shadow drive install Fuse: 40 A, blade-type Main power usage: standby - less than 1 A; engaged - 5-10 A; peak - 34 A Flow rate: Configurable from 0 to 2.4 L per minute On the other hand my...

no need to go to the battery with either. mine is powered from pos and neg buss low at the helm, those buss are fed directly from the transom/house battery.

we talked about that at the shop

Got the props on but no chance to run, bad weather. Would have had to pull props anyway as the day before I got an outrigger line in the port motor/prop. Went swimming offshore with the Portuguese man of war, which I fear more than the spinner sharks and thought I got it all. At the dock I...

Spoke to welder/fabricator (beautiful shop) very near by. I have to bring boat to him, his welding truck must be near the job and so cannot do on my lift. Started pulling wires, at least 2/3 mostly old coax were useless and good riddance. Going to try and wait for my 200 hr service when I...
