    Read something about making sure unit is unplugged when charging. Or you’ll fry an in-line fuse or worse board. 

    Interesting good to know, just by luck I didn’t charge with it plugged in. I did find a fuse in the head and it was still good to go.  
    I’ll see if it’s the board.

    Are all the connects tight? I had this happened to me, and my ground had come loose. Quick fix

     
    in the plug? Or the actual motor? 
     

    the battery connects are tight 

  3. I have a Minn Kota 24v 70lb power drive v2. Fully operational with power left to right turning but no thrust in the motor? Spins for a second and stops. 

    The batteries are full charged via multimeter, on board battery charger and the indicator on Minn Kota. 
    I first thought the batteries were wired wrong but those are fine, then checked the prop to see if something was wrapped around the shaft but it was free…
     

    any idea what else to check? 
     

  4. All questions I asked myself too guys!  I stuck my head back there and it looks like they are not connected to anything!  what's more odd is I found some faint writing and it said "Hummin" and "pro" on the other...  I do have hummingbird fishfinger but why the 110 volt? 

    I also see two battery trays in the back so I do think they original guy had two onboard chargers and that is exactly what it was used for even though the weird labeling 

     

    I will use them as Frogger said and just make charging my batteries that much easier. My charger is under my rod storage and probably a PIA to charge through that storage. Once I add another charger in the back I will route the second one as well. 

     

     

     

  5. Bought a 2015 Lund over the weekend. I am third owner and during inspection I found two after market 110v outlets added. The owner I purchased from said he didn’t put them there and the marina had no clue what the original owner was using them for. 
    Original owner was a troller on canandaigua… any clue what these would be used for? I know some older riggers ran on 110 but never thought they would be added on a newer boat???
    pic for reference to the outlet

  6. Anyone bought a bag of winter rye yet? Bought a 50lb bag and was shocked to pay 40 bucks. Last year it was 18 I believe? Was it just my supplier or is it like that across the board?

    Ah yes!!! I do have a two bottom but I didn’t know if it was going to be to much for the little 25hp

    Very nice… I was using a 25hp for my tiller and it takes so long! I just wasn’t getting the juice. Been thinking of upgrading but the 4ft disc has been ok and much quicker but not that quality of a seed bed.
    Been thinking of discing first to break ground then come through and lightly till a couple inches on top
