    Congrats on the readability of iboats on an iphone now...

    This site is now better at moving around and reading stuff than most other forums now. Also zooms great now, but type is so clear can read it normal size. Keep up the tweaking and thanks for the good work here 👍

    MKA 23 (vs MKA 16) and the trouble with the puck mount style on carpet

    Re-post of lost thread. Everything went well on sat for my initial run with the MK ipilot 55. My only issue was the choice of the Minn Kota MKA 21 quick release bracket (which I'll start another thread for tips on installation of the MKA 21). It's fine if you are mounting on a flat deck. But if...

    Humminbird 678 cHD was my choice . . .

    Ordered the Humminbird 678CHD (sonar, no GPS) paid $334 with free shipping and no tax. Was going to go with the 718 for $199, but after I spoke to Humminbird support they said the 718 came out in 2009 and is discontinued, but still available. Also the 718 is B&W and for the extra $135 for color...

    Minn Kota Ipilot 55 . . . Just bought one!

    Thanks to the input from several posters in this thread that I started which helped me in my decision for the bow mount vs the cavitation mounted motor. The thread was moved from where I opened it in the boating forum. But I thought it odd that it was moved to the "outboard" forum when it should...

    Viewing new posts?

    Is it just me or is the only way to view the latest posts by scrolling down to the very end of the list of all the forums? Shouldn't this tab be at the top? The "latest activity tab" at the top for me seems to link to nothing?

    minnkota engine mount vs their ipilot bow mount?

    terrova Ipilot 55 runs around $1200. The 55 EM engine mount runs $619 here on iboats, free shipping and no tax. I have an upfront battery box and also an 8 gauge line running down to the back of the boat from that box to my onboard charger. So I'm all set up for either bow or transom power. i...

    Please post some of your 2014 Striper pics . . ..

    From this season's run along the Hudson River from the Albany dam to the Tappan Zee bridge in NYC. They would be fun for us to see. I'm already seeing many boats out there on these early chilly mornings on my drive to work in Albany along the Hudson. This is dedication . . . or they just like...

    Can I spray cold galvanized spray over zinc folding trailer tongue?

    Would I have been better off ordering the raw finish bracket and spraying that one? I just ordered the Fulton fold away bolt on hinge since my new garage rental is smaller than the last one and the tongue sticks out like 2 feet now. My trailer is galvanized and i dislike anything with a zinc...

    Damn, just had my 2011 Highlander swept away from me . . ..

    So the deal was two years ago my son said I should buy his 2011 Highlander off his 3 year lease. He did his lease when Toyota was having issues 3 years ago and were cutting cheap lease deals which there would be a lower residual buyout. He never buys his leased vehicles and just turns them...

    Who ever thought those green porpane cylinders blow up and kill?

    I though they had a little round pressure relief valve? Guess not . . . I'd be real careful about letting one get too hot near a grill especailly when grilling off the end of a boat. Fillmore Woman Dies After Handheld Propane Torch Explodes At Family Cookout ? CBS Los Angeles

    Snapped the tip of my graphite rod . . . ? What typemof glue?

    I drilled out the tip core. Do I just use some type of expoxy? I never have luck glueing most plastics so I'm worried about getting the tip to bond to the graphite?

    Whats up with these new skinny grips instead of cork?

    My daughter just bought a new rod. The grip has some cork but mostly just a skiiny rod. What does this do except save on cork? I see them in ****'s flyer too.
