    Need help

    Distance isn’t an issue, per se. The issue is the turbulence generated by said protrusion with the boat in motion. Just make sure the transducer is in front (fore) of any protrusions in the hull. My transducer is just slightly off the keel, flanked by intakes on both sides. Roughly 6” in...

    Rust, generally how to clean and best spray to keep it from rusting?

    Galvanize (zinc) is a sacrificial coating. It is not a rust preventative. Unless the zinc is in direct (molecular) contact with the steel, it serves no purpose. Might as well top coat with silver paint. Done commercially, it would be pickled (dipped in hydrochloric acid) to remove any surface...

    NOCO LifeP04 in lawn mower

    Mine is a 29 HP Kohler Command Pro - 2015, 1925 hours Have you checked the amp draw on the PTO? I had to replace mine when it started throwing misc sensor codes when I engaged or disengaged the PTO. Kohler said the electronics are designed to run down to 6 volts. Never saw anything that low...

    Ratcheting RG-45 crimpers or regular

    Depends on the experience of the user. Ratcheted allows you to set and maintain a constant compression rate. Allows even an inexperienced installer to make good, consistent crimps. Hand crimper... not so much

    99 Bayliner Trophy 22 foot top speed

    Sounds about right. The boat in that configuration is a bit under powered. My buddy bought his new. Wanted to race me (different mfg. boat with 225 hp outboard) to the other side, ~6-7 miles. My top end is @40 mph and I walked away from him at a pretty good clip

    Battery charger recommendation for winter

    The trick is to get it (them) charged back up the quickest possible. Replaced my Vintage 10 amp Diehard charger with a Schumacher SC1304 two years ago. It's a 15 amp/3 amp charger that supports Gel, AGM and lead acid battery charging.

    I/O (Sterndrive) Conversion to Outboards

    You’re going to leave your drives down while slipped? Getting in and out over the transom is frowned upon due to safety concerns. All the local marinas have finger piers every other slip. Allows you to access the boat over the gunnel
