  1. It is worth a try but I would expect that if the tanks are at different levels or different length of hose it would suck the lower/ closer one dry faster and then suck air before draining the other tank. The equalizer tube on a two tank system is located at the bottom between the tanks.With this said if Lews boat is set up without a equalizer tube or special piping then you are golden.

  2. It is my hope that if you oppose these fish that you do not purchase them or support business that sell them. Since after all it is being done just for the profit.... :sarcasm:

     

    A faster growing fish will enable product to be brought to market quicker with less resources sounds like a win for all of us. If by chance they do escape and they are fertile it will have all of the natural enemies and mortality of the native species it is not like the Asian Carp. Please don't turn this into the Carp argument it will only get locked.

  3. When I installed my electric bow mount in the mid-ninties I used regular outdoor wire from Home Depot and ran it under the floor from the stern to the bow. I had the boat up last year and it never gave me a problem.

     

    Luckily Alumicraft had ran ABS pipe from stern to bow so it made running the wire a little easier. That and two extra circuits pre-wired at the bow were a nice touch.

     

    All marine wires to code must be stranded the sold wire for houses is a no no it can start a fire and will break at the connections from vibration and stress. That said it looks like you have had some success though for the past 10 plus years.

  4. If you can't get a cover that will not puddle then it would be better to tarp it with supports that will not let snow collect. I have the cover you mentioned and while it is a nice cover it does puddle water but since it is stored in a garage it does not matter for me.

  5. As to you my new friend I apologize for judging you a Racist (used incorrectly by the way) before taking the time to really talk to you as we have done in p.m.'s. A Pepsi Sugar free and a hearty handshake is waiting for you at Lak Air if you get up their for the G2G. If you also get a chance to come to the Washington D.C. area we can fish for the monstrous Potomac River Carp or I can turn you into a Blue Catfish fan which ever you prefer.
