Yes just spice them with a water proof (adhesive lined) crimp connection. Shrink wrap over that. If you need an extension, use at least a gauge size of wire larger to reduce resistance. In-line fuse at the battery on red wire.

Many of us have switched to the Minn Kota power cord. The male/female connection is more reliable

Ain’t it funny how those GM trannys go at 120,000 miles. When I checked the Toyota dealership for available trucks (non-existent), the Toyota guys were giggling about all little crap stuff GM truck owners have to deal with. There comment was most Toyota trucks that are turned in are often on their original tranny at 200,000-300,000 miles. Just tires and brakes.

My AFM disabler arrived today. Easy to plug in under the dash and more importantly the device does what it is intended for. I wish I had found this device sooner. My Yukon drives perfect smooth with no clunky cylinder shut offs.

Ha!

Imagine the scenario where your boat breaks down. Navigate that AP while bouncing around in waves to see if you can drop anchor, get gas, get a tow….

The hard part navigating all of this is depending on which border agent you come in contact with, you may get varying responses. I know this after dealing with the border during COVID while my daughter was at the University of Guelph. Some guys would let you go through without hassles and some were threatening.

Here is the latest. https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/pb-pp-eng.html

Great. I was hoping there was an update. The link I posted was for June but I had not heard different.

I believe these regs are still in place. https://www.canada.ca/en/border-services-agency/news/2021/06/border-restrictions-for-fishing-and-boating-in-canadian-waters-remain-in-place.html

If you haven’t already, introduce yourself to Tim Nelson of ECK Intimidator Sports. He has the Baha named Intimidator. He owns a gun store and can hook you up if needed.

Good luck 👍. God save any grumpy charter captains that try to claim “their” turf by crossing over your lines. Just wear your muscle shirt around deck and people will leave you alone lol.

I ordered mine and will report the results

Hell I even change the oil myself!

Cohos show up in the spring when the emerald shiners move in. Two things to look for : one, look for a school of bait that looks like a bunch of little dots on your fishfinder. These usually present in the upper 1/3 of the water column towards the end of March in 30-70’ fow in Niagara County. Those are emeralds and there will be cohos around them. Second, look for diving Terns. Terns can only feed on small bait. Where there are terns, there is small bait and potentially cohos. This scenario can take place anywhere but usually near the shoreline. Cohos don’t really need anything special. Your spring brown spread will have plenty of coho catching capability. If I sense cohos are around, I will add a orange z-dodger and fly to my shoreline spread off a rigger or add a mini spin doc and fly for the deeper bite.

The upper engine goes early. Something about the valve lifters and increase in oil consumption. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2021/12/general-motors-v8-engine-valve-lifter-lawsuit-claims-recall-is-needed/amp/

Made in the USA now, my next truck will be a Toyota! I was told we will soon see suburbans reaching $$ six figures in cost. So many stupid sensors that end up failing on theses vehicles. Belts and bulbs that lasted forever and were cheap to replace, now have integrated circuits and motherboards. Truck design engineers should all get fired at GM for crimes against the wallet. I actually have a sensor on my Yukon that alerts me that it id raining. Rant over.
