  1. Has this always been the case? I am not at all familiar with counter rotating props and how this would work....If possible, I would compare both engines rpm,s running separately. Perhaps the starboard side is over revving a bit due to lack of water. I don't know..just a guess..
  2. clean the carb(s) You probably picked a small piece of debris in the low speed jet. Remove the carb or carbs and disassemble and clean one at a time. If you are very careful, you may be able to disassemble it without having to replace any gaskets or o-rings. Use a good carb cleaner and a fine piece of wire. lots of videos on Youtube to help.
  3. The word "storing" leads me to wonder if you are asking about winter storage?
  4. Yankee is 100% spot on about the GT54/56 for trolling. I should have listened to him when I bought mine 3 years ago. It will track balls as long as it's flat calm. But anything more than a slight chop, you're in the dark! I went a different route and added a refurb Lowrance Elite 7 with a basic 2D 83/200 ducer that also networks with my TM. Couldn't be happier!
  5. Ebay is about your best hope.
  6. Weather is about the only reason.
  7. 2 for 3 both mid morning fast east troll 2.5-2.7 down temp 48. A jr about 10# and my daughter got her first mature. Both fish hit a Sea Sick on a rigger. 60/100.
  8. Might want to take a look around the Morristown area. Quaint and quiet village and easy drive to Abay/Clayton/Cape areas.
  9. pump the ball as she starts to struggle. If that helps, it's fuel delivery. Most likely fuel pump.
  10. Biggest issue will be mounting, not operation.
  11. In the spring, that launch is always like that. And, if you get an east wind, it can be a lot worse. Ibay with a South wind is the same way concerning weeds and trash. I would be happy with a decent rake chained to the dock so we could clean it ourselves.
  12. I have a similar set up and mounted mine on a ram with an extended arm, right on the gunnel. it sits inside the side curtain and I can swing it to face the bow when bass fishing.
  13. I would consider other areas before anything that is open to air circulation. If I am understanding you correctly, that area is only subjected to splash. Motor mounts, swim platform mounts, transducers, any through bolts or loose rivets under the water line are the first areas to look.
  14. I ran16lbers last year on newer walkers, last year without issue. A bit slow but thats fine with me.
  15. good morning

     

    Did you sell the 10'6 diver rods?

     

    have a good day

  16. I go to Pugsley"s in Ontario for and service that I can"t do myself. And,...No personal experience but East Fork Marina in Hamlin is highly recommended by many.
  17. I tried using a skeg on my xi5 and it decreased my battery life by 50%.
  18. I run the same boat with the 60 Xi5 MG and wish I had the 72" for trolling in anything more than calm seas.
  19. The most compact electric DR's are Walkers. Dependable and simple design. Finding a pair that are in excellent working condition can be a problem.
  20. What do you have it on and does it look to be modified? Their hardware kits are pretty specific.
  21. Put an amp meter on the kicker to see what it puts out. I am pretty sure it is not enough to charge your TM batts.
