Down Deep

Have had problems with Walmart Batteries , had failures within 1-1/2 yr.  , even though They gave me free replacements it was a PITA  To get the batteries in and out . Switched to Interstate , going on 4th year without a problem. just make sure you trickle charge every month or so during the winter .

What is the Lower Price ?

Is Sausage with Peppers and Onions on the Lunch Menu again this year ? That was  Soooo Good !

I would  call a small airport and rent a ride on a  small air plane , pilots need to keep their hours up  , so you might get a deal . Down side is someone  already has it . Facebook usually works for people  ,  Might tun up on Craigslist  in the future .

 I Had Davis Doel Fin on Two boats so that is the only one I am familiar with . there might be another brand that is better ???? . Would be nice to find a test with different brand hydafoils used on one boat .

After installing a Trolling motor And Bracket that weighted about  200 lbs on my 21 ft. the trim tabs didn't  quite do it . Added  Hydra foils  [ 150 hp. outboard ] and a Couple 25 lb. bags of lead shot in the bow , PERFECT ,  Gets up and rides like a charm.

What's your diver charge? and what's there max depth? I was doing some research and it may be out of reach for a diver. The probe and ball are out in front of hughs in 140 fow.

140 ft is a little deep for a compressed air dive , let alone the bottom time will only be a few minutes . decompression needed ,  cold water temps in dark murky waters etc  = PITA . Even  though my diving days are over . I did not bother my diving friends to try to recover my own X4D probe I lost , less hassle and time just buying a new one. Now a ROV sounds like a better idea than the Drone i was Thinking about .

Fuel freshness varied throughout the year, but, all new now.  We also ran it on new gas from a portable can and it ran the same.

What gas are you using . 91 Octane Non- Ethanol Gas solved all my problems , been using it for years in all my Toys and yard equipment.

You need a new Probe and Display . Might be better  buying a new unit and selling this one .

Your battery will be fine , I have 2 that stay charged even running downriggers and other gadgets . Just make sure you bring them to full charge every few days at home or dock .

Had just trim tabs on 21 ft with 150 outboard , with 2 on board ok . with crew of 4 and full tank of gas (over 500 lbs.) needed hydrofoil added , a big difference getting up  and  nobody had to move to the front of the boat .

Want to make squirrel stew , buddy took me to a "hot spot"  we didn't see any . Will trade fresh frozen walleye fillets for skinned and cleaned gray or fox squirrels . Need 4-6 ,  NO reds .  Hamburg area .

Will my Off Shore OR12 planer boards be able to pull 7 color lead core?  I can pull the deep diving reef runners on them no problem

I pull up to 10 colors  , you'll be fine .

I will take 4 of them . PM sent

I use Black , Monkey Puke , Nuclear Pink , Glow And others . Usually try to match my  attractor or lures . I   did a test years ago scuba diving with all my lures , Dipsy Divers and what not and found out the color turns gray theory was a myth . Here is a link that might be interesting .  

This is what happens when There is no set price . I was interested but figured I  would  stay out of a best offer Sale . Too much like Flea-Bay .

Sent you a PM

Used 150Lb. Power Pro for years , Dragged bottom a few times with no problems. Finally lost Probe and 12lb. ball fishing in 5 footers trying to set line into release . Ball swung up into air and came down " Snap " .   Ouch-$$$$$$$$ . Switched back to wire on probe rigger , and always keep ball and probe under water in rough seas  , just use stacker releases . Yes , always checked Super line , even cut a few ft. back every few trips .

25 year old 2 -stroke maybe 700.00  Don't forget the Rubber in and around engine ; carb rebuilds , diaphragms hardened as well as impellers .Also check bellows  Etc. make sure the engines turn freely ,even if put away correctly they still could rust and seize from humidity if not turned over yearly . that's a long time siting idle . Everything will add up quick , especially if you pay to get it done . Great find , but buy it right.
