I lay a white towel on mine. keeps the sun off. lol.

When adding a backup bilge pump. Do you also add another bilge hose and separate discharge port through the hull? Or can you use the same discharge hose as the primary? I guess it makes sense to have each bilge pump with there own independent discharge hose? My thoughts are avoiding drilling...

Caught a pile of fish. Filled it up with gas and charged trolling motor. She is gonna need some love this winter. But........ fishing is pretty good in the winter.......

I have a 208 and its 7/8. Not sure about the 218 but would bet it is same as the 208.

Here is my install. I thought about doing a hinge but instead took out the 45degree coupling. I cut approx 1.5 inch off one side of bow rail and have all the clearance I need for trolling motor. I also have enough bow rail length to reattach the 45 degree coupling and bring bow rail back to...

Yes. The cup holder screws in. Found a better pic. I am going to fabricate one myself with 1/2 inch starboard

Seasick. Have a look at pics. The cup holder is right next to fish box and toe rail. Best pics I could find.

Thanks for response. I am thinking of getting the material pre-cut from boatoutfitters and making them myself. The originals broke. I tried JB welding them. They broke again. So I removed them. And now my daughters are complaining they don't have their favorite cup holders! (lol) so I can make...

Does anyone know where to find replacement cup holders for a 2006 208. The cupholders that go on floor next to the toe rail piece. It is basically just a piece of starboard screwed in. I would like to find them or the size and make some.

Scratch that. They just changed the slot to 19 to 31. Which is not a big deal because you will not catch a striper over 24 inches from now untill October in the bay.

And in Maryland you can keep fish 19 inches to 35 inches.

The engine starts well with either battery.

Seasick. Yes I did voltage test with each battery individually. The results were the same.

Skunkboat. Sorry for the confusion. This test was done with trim tabs connected back to fuse box in there original position. I ran them directly off the battery temporarily. The test was not done with them connected directly to battery. Couple answers to questions. Garmin does blip when I start...

Ran some voltage drops at the fuse box with a multimeter. Here is what I have. Any thoughts? 12.7 volts drops to 8.3 when trim tabs engage 12.7 drops to 12.5 with Garmin chartplotter on 12.7 drops to 12.2 with radar display on. Then drops to 11.8 with radar running. (another note is when I turn...

I ran a load test today. Load test at both batteries is good. Load test at my Blue Sea Fuse box fails. The ground wire at the fuse box is smaller than the positive wire. I dont believe this is helping anything. Im not sure if this is the actual issue. My radar positive lead is run through my...

I inspected all my grounds. Moved the trim tab and radar grounds to different posts. No luck. I ran the trim tab power cable directly to battery selector switch. No luck. Then I ran trim tab power cable directly to battery selector switch and ran trim tab ground cable directly to battery ground...

Couple answers and details. Boat is a 2006 Grady 208. yamaha f150. I have 2 batteries. (have checked batteries they are functioning properly) All electronics have functioned correctly until I added the radar. This is a new issue. The radar is installed exactly to installation instructions. "In...

I just installed a Furuno 1815. Works fine. Except when I toggle my trim tabs. The power surge from this shuts off the furuno radar. Any ideas for a fix? I also notice my chart plotter blips a little when I toggle the trim tabs. But it does not shut down. The trim tabs are standard bennett trim...

Yes. Perfect. Thank you. I just need the plastic slider pieces. This should work.
