  1. I sent you a PM with instructions. Hope all is well Stan.
  2. Simrad was bought out a couple years after I bought my AP. The AP 12 was discontinued and about a year later the 14 was also dropped. Prior to that the customer service was second to none. Dam shame because the units were reasonably priced and performed great.
  3. Nope. Between me and Hank we searched alot. Nobody can get parts. I'm in the process of buying a new AP. Shame because that AP held my coarse into anything, but thats what it is. Good luck Glen
  4. Nice Dave Glen
  5. Thanks Guys. I appreciate the good wishes.
  6. I have both and prefer the convectors.
  7. Got a couple Blue Diamond roller rods for the wire and they are OK. Also have a couple Blue Diamond regular guide dipsy rods and they are great for the money, and have good action for smaller sized Finger Lakes fish. I run Braid on these with Slide Divers. Glen
  8. I don't think you will use much more fuel with a plate than you use with two bags.
  9. I had a 17 1/2 ft Starcraft with a 90 merc. Tried a couple different ones and ended up with the Happy troller with the hinged plate. Took care of all my trolling speed issues especially trolling with a stiff wind. Bad news is more fuel consumption because you have to keep your rpms up but worth it. The hinged plate allows you to avoid damge when you take off and forget to put the plate up. You will realize it's down before you break anything. Good luck Glen
  10. Sorry to hear of your loss Ray. Thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family Glen
  11. Guys I need a computer for an older Simrad AP 12H. Anybody got one for sale? Thanks Glen
  12. I got bullets before every line of text on the last post and know there is a line going through the center of the text. Ummmm.
  13. About 2 ft here in West Springfield MA Really sucks Glen
  14. Thanks for the link. I've been running Ande for a lot of years and don't have any reason to switch. For flasher and flys I run 40 lb pink. For spoons and plugs I run 30 lb clear with a 20 lb test floro leader. This is on my salmon gear. I run the pink and clear so I can run down into the cabin and grab a rod I need out of the pile without screwing around.
  15. Congratulations!!! I just started a new job today and ten more years I'm otta there. New job, same old sh_t different place. Glen
  16. I got their phone number off the web and called them Jeff.
  17. niners x 10
  18. I do. The $100.00 I saved on the rigger went to um.
  19. Try here. Last time I bought a Scotty about 5 yrs ago, they were the cheapest with free shipping. http://shop.johnssportinggoods.com/prod ... d=13&cid=3
  20. Happy Birthday. Hope it was a great one. Glen
  21. Come on now. Guy is trying to get some advertising in. Just not the right place. Was pretty smooth though. I'm kinda curious about "crazy action" of those blanks. Never know until you put one in the water.
  22. Unless of coarse you hang it on the wifes side of the boat.
  23. Look pretty good. How about a couple samples? I would be willing to give them a try on the early spring Browns. PM me if you read this before the mods delete this post. Glen
  24. I was looking at a sweet PY last fall. Looked great and I've been around boats for a long time. Survey came back with water intrusion in the transome and rotted stringers. Saved myself $6000.00 + and alot of aggravation. Also suggest a qualified mechanic you trust to check out the motor and transmission to be safe. Good luck Glen
