Maybe they should have a stamp just to fill your car with gas I think NOT I think we have enough stamps thank you

The purpose of an on board charger is that you can charge multiple battery from one charger and it stays on the boat all you do is unplug and store the wire and your good to go. It depends on how many bank charger you get and the amp output per battery I have a 2 bank on board that charges my two batteries at 10 amp each. I use the 2 batteries for the trolling motor up front and when I'm trolling with the down riggers. I have the 2 batteries hooked up in parallel (+ to + &- to -) this doubles my current output and keeps the voltage at 12 volts so I can run my riggers for days with out charging(but charge every night) .then I run the batteries in series(+ to _) to add up to 24 volts when using the electric motor in the front of the boat.How many riggers do you run?You might want to get another battery for your riggers and all the other stuff then get a switch that you can change the battey confeguration. I don't run one of these but a lot of guys here do.I run 3 battery and on the main battery i run the original boat stuff on that and everything else is on my other 2 batteries.They are easy to install and the cost is what you want to spend on one here is a page to look at http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/commo ... .jsp.form1 hope this helps

A day fishing trip with Big easy and BOB next spring at oloctt and good weather other than that I'm good for now

I don't know how the maps will look but I just did an update on my new color Gps and it was easy just go to there site and copy to the sd then put it in the unit and power it up it down loads on turn on then you should be all set If you have problems call them before you install it so they are on the phone while you are doing it so you can ask questions that's what I did simple.The only problem I had was the wait to get a tech on the line it's best to call first thing in the morning. Hope this helps good luck let us know how you did.

YT you said you were changing reel what are they again and why? I just curios. Do these new reels have a better ratio than the other? Any info would be great Thanks

Tom very well done My hats off to you.And remember you have my vote if you ever go in to politics Thanks again

Thanks Tom I'm in

Tom Thanks for looking into this You should run for office You got a nack for this stuff.Great job (I also love these smiles)

Chad nice Smiles I love the beer mug!!!

YT ask Eric (Maniac)about the pinch pads they are a great idea there is no creeping when the fish hits the pads come off and your good to go.easy to set up.

Eric save some of that for the river next spring :mrgreen: Just kidding nice buck. I have a buck at my house that is distroying all of my evergreen trees by rubbing all of the branchs off the middle of them. Good luck when you go out Sat.

This is the best site out there and it show right here thanks again.Keep up the good work!!!

Once you got the wire out as far as you want it adjust the drag that is clicks every now and then. As far as the release goes I was on a freinds boat last spring and what he did is used a pinch pad tied around the base of his rod holder with enough wire or line from the release to the rod holder so he could clip the pads on the wire just after the reel so when a fish hit the pad would come off and you fight the fish. Great little set up I 'm going to use that set up this year also. As far as the drag goes set it so it's not real tight wire has no strech if the drag is to tight and the fish makes a last run it could break the wire.Good luck

I have the 620 great little finder I also used Jim from BOE he will match any price plus shipping is free.over $400 I don't have the room for a 585 but Have been on Maniac's boat nice unit can't go wrong
