That all sounds fine Happy New Year Jay

please check your PM thank you, Jay

I will take these if tech2526 does not Jay

I have used Convectors/Clarions for years for everything (dipsys, lead copper, downriggers, etc) and never had a reel failure. Years ago Okuma had some less than best drags ( some people still like to bring that up) but that changed when they went to the Carbonite drag washers 5/6 years ago. I know off many ways to loose fish, but Convector/Clarion reel failures have not been one of them. One thing I have found over the years with any fishing gear; how it performs is directly related to how you maintain your equipment. good fishing, Jay

great retrieve rate also 2 to 1

As an additional check, did you replace all your fuel lines that the Ethanol has deteriorated? Barricade by Gates is a great fuel line that the Ethanol can't melt

I bought some of these They are"very nice" for the money!!!!! Jay

I will take the down rigger plugs Check your PM Jay

ORB fittings may not be "special", but they are not a common fitting used by the material handling (forklifts), construction, (skid steers, backhoes, etc.) or lift gate industries. When I did my AP, I contacted 6 (six) hydraulic/fittings shops in the Chicago area and none of them carried ORB fittings because they are not used in the previously mentioned industries. In an effort to control inventory costs, many shops no longer stock what does not sell. Jay

The short answer is no I just went through installing a RM AP. Some of those fittings are what they call an ORB fitting which is a oddball size not to be found at any hydraulics shop. I spoke with Seastar and RM both before I just started searching the internet for answers What I ended up doing is buying a hose kit ( about $127.00) that had most of the hoses and fittings I needed. I actually used the old fittings I took out of the helm (when I installed the new hoses) to put in the hydraulic pump It was a real learning experience All of the Seastar hydraulic lines had those ORB fittings on them good luck Jay

Integrity is doing the right thing when no one is looking
