FYI...I have one installed on the port side, but no kicker. The unit is still pretty close  to the turbulence from the main (115hp). Starboard side has a 50/200 transducer, no issue with that either. 

Good Day, I am in need to install a boat lift hoist this year due to health issues. I have an RGC 4000 hoist. Does anyone have any advise on what type battery paired with a solar charger would be appropriate? I have a fairly new deep cycle I wouldn't mind using, but not sure that is correct, cranking? What wattage on the solar charger? Research shows many options, but also says a very large panel may be needed. For sizing purposes I am saying the boat is completely lifted/lowered out of the water twice a day. Partially lifted 2 or 3 times a day. There will be a week of charging time followed by a week of usage. 

Thanks, Dave

The 20 foot PRO V soft top looks very nice from Hewescraft. $$$ ??

All great feedback, and thanks to everyone for taking the time to respond. The more I get into, the more I am thinking of spending the $$$. This will most likely be my last boat investment (maybe). BW and GW seem to come up every time I look closer. I am happy with my 18 now, just need more room after 10 years of gathering equipment. Thinking the glass will provide a better over all ride the aluminum.  Will continue to look.....thanks!

Thanks CK3080, nice set up. I will check a few out.Thank you for the pictures, always helpful.

I can't believe the Striper CC needs 35 inches of water to float. How can that be?

Thanks, I just checked out the 20', has a 35" draft. That won't work for me. My dock is in skinny water. Nice boat though.

As the snow flies, my mind drifts to a question on a dual console. I have been looking for awhile now, and nothing jumps out to me that I can afford! 

Recommendations on a fiberglass dual console boat that can be set up for trolling in and around the 21' range? 

Dave

Took me awhile to find this answer. Looks like the 150d has a rpm control that takes it down to 650.

Looking at a new 150hp. My current Mercury has electronic troll control. I can get idle down to 800rpm. Does Yamaha have anything like this?

This is interesting! Thanks! Just checking on options with GW. Appreciate your time.

Good Day, 

Anyone ever put a kicker on one of these beauties? I found tech spec that shows 4mph at 1000rpm. Not going to work for trolling. 

Dave

Anyone purchase these seats? Looking to replace my two in my Crestliner. Hard to tell via pictures/descriptions, so I thought I would ask the forum.

Thanks, Dave

Thank you Sir!

Good Day, 

Perfect time to get my shimano's done. I have had them for ten seasons now, they are due. Anyone have Tuna Toms info? I seem to be having trouble fining contact numbers/address/web.

Thanks all, 

Dave

I believe they didn’t go to far from the park to stock

check out Cisco Fishing Systems, best on the market if you want good, reliable stainless equipment. Not chea, but will last a lifetime. I have tax, cannon mag 10 down rigger mounts, rod holders...love them all.

Any room for short set of trax?

Fleas not bad with 20lb flea flicker. Not many fish in the boat, some weed balls- east branch
