    sounds just like my setup with the tie bar, a 225 yamaha ox66 & 9.9 kicker connected with a diy tie bar. I went with Lowrance Outboard AP hydraulic and went with the new HDS live unit + bluetooth remote steer. Its a slick setup!. Installation was Easy done in the driveway. Tyee's advice above is spot on about matching your existing electronics if you can. The AP works with both motors as my setup is always connected. The motors don't need to be running for the AP to work.

    two spherical ball joint ends from Napa with a stud, a piece of 3/8" rod, and a die to cut threads on the rod to match your ball joint ends and some scrap aluminum to make your mounting brackets if necessary. About $25 in material and a few hours for trail and error bending your piece of rod. Heat helps with the bends. A lot lot cheaper than going with sea-star.

    The Lowrance Carbons are on sale right now... Carbon 9 + Total Scan ducer for around your price, around $1,600 +/- Can easily integrate autopilot at a late date with that unit.

    Ozzy's Obsession sells them and had a post up last week. I love them and you cannot beat the price $75 shipped, his coating holds up well and the weights track very nicely even when going DEEEEEP

    Sent message for 4, Thx ozzy, I have used these weights in the past, they are great and already coated, run true, only problem with them is they sink really fast when you snag bottom in the Hudson...

    I would check LP fuel pumps for pinholes. Yamaha's are known for failing. They are easily rebuildable for less than 20 bucks per pump for the diaphragms. if you figure it out please circle back with your results. Thanks

    I am considering selling it yes, or holding onto it for a spare. Still on the fence as it has treated me pretty well and only has around 950 hours on it. I put a deposit on a 225 Yamaha with 325 hours on it yesterday so I should decide in the next 2-3 weeks.
