#2 or #3 Blue Fox Vibrax in Gold or Silver.

if you posted it a week or so earlier I might have been able to swing it................that would be a great trip

 

I sure hope you fill the spots

AWWW CMON TERRY!!!

You can bask in the glow that is ME!!!!

I'll even sign autographs!!!

Forgot to add, the Nautilus charger I posted has a 5 year warranty and is made by Schumacker Electric.

Here is a link to the manual.

Dave, I would also assume you leave the two TM batteries hooked up together (24 volts) while charging?? I dont need any other switches. Is that correct?

Correct, the charger separates the batteries internally.

You have 3 cables (each with a + & -) (one for each battery) and a power cord.

So easy a caveman could install it.

The only thing you have to do is tell it what kind of battery is on each cable so it can properly charge it. All done through a button or two. Easy enough if you follow the instructions.

Understand your point Wayne, however, would it not make sense if I had to buy an on board charger that a 3-bank would keep the cranking battery topped up durind extended periods of time when I am not using the boat? My starting battery is only a could of years old.

Yes it does make perfect sense.

That is the reason I have a 3 bank charger on my boat.

As I said the charger I bought will ignore any fully charged batteries and only charge those that need charging. Plus it conditions the batteries and reduces sulfation of the plates as well as float charging them so they stay topped up when not used. Just plug in at the end of the day and forget about it until the next trip.

I picked one of these up last year and it's pretty decent.

It will charge regular lead acid, deep cycle lead acid and AGM batteries.

All you have to do is hook one set of cables to each battery and plug it in.

It will cycle through the batteries giving up to 15 amps of current and when the batteries are charged will maintain them. It also conditions the batteries to extend their life.

Something a little harder than Harry.

Just wondering where can you get a sheet of 3/4" marine ply from?

Give Noah's a call.

If you want an electric fuel pump just purchase a cover plate and new gasket to block off the mechanical fuel pump opening. If you are just looking for a filter just purchase one of These and plumb it inline. The added bonus is it's also a water separator.

streamed it to my 56 in !!! i got vertigo just looking at it. Awesome!!!!!!!

Yeah me too!!

Watch this video in full screen to really get the effect.

Better yet if you can stream to your big screen!!!!

Can you use braid, with a longer than normal leader?

 

I think I know what you want to do, but I'll wait until you say it to see if I'm right

 

S.

Possibly, but I will be fishing some skinny water at times and I think Fire Line Crystal would work but I'm not sure on the handling characteristics. Might be worth a try.

A friend of mine has a guide service down in Tampa and has been trying to get me to come down for a week or so of flats fishin' and I am going after 'poon and bones with a 10 wt spey conversion.

It would be cool to get a slam on the pin too by adding a permit.

Might have to see if I can get a red, trout and snook as well.

I use a back to back uni as well.

Ande and Trilene XT are too stiff.

I need a 20# linethat will work well on a centerpin.

Ok, I am looking for a clear 20# line that is supple, strong, thin diameter and doesn't have a lot of stretch.

I am looking for a line that is similar in handling to Raven 12# mainline.

It can't be too stiff or it won't work. I will be using it in a semi-tropical area (temps in the 80's F), it also needs to be abrasion resistant as it will be used around corals and mangroves.

Anyone got any options?

I've got Fishers in the yard Dave!

I don't know.

What do you think would be worse.

A/ pulling back the tarp to reveal a cudly little fisher or

B/ pulling back the tarp only to be shredded by a wolverine or mauled by a grizz?

At least you guys don't have to worry about a grizzly bear or wolverine taking up residence in your boat!!!

Royal wedding?....Pfffffft!

cripes it sure is hot up there Is it like that all the time?

Only when it's not pinned in the other direction.

That shot was taken in direct sun. The real temp was 27 or something.

Late last spring late May or early June I think.

I just grab this one when I head out, works good for ice fishing too.

Actually I use one very similar to this one.

Stream Thermometer

I have never dealt with them but incase you didn't know, they have been there a long time.

now that you're in a good mood, wanna buy a 15 hp 1989 merc?

An '89 huh?

I can give you $50 for it.

Now if it had been an '83, well that's a whole nuther ballgame.

It would be worth 10 times that amount!!! :rofl2:

Well if we're going with days of the week theme, this is playing on Siriu 22 right now.
