  1. I run a snubber below my probe but other than that that's how I run mine. Just wait until you see how gingerly you let go of that probe for the first time and the next 50x after that. It's not the best feeling dropping 300$ over the side of the boat dangling on a cable.

  2. Last year I put 21hrs on my main and 317hrs on the kicker my 4stroke uses around a 1/4-1/5 of a gallon an hr. Between fuel savings wear and tear on the big motor and safety to me it's a no brainer.

  3. I have a 16ft Starcraft and have a 6hp tohatsu sail pro and love it. If you are looking at a 4hp I know tohatsu and mercs use the same motors for the 4-6hp so the weights are the same. Any single cylinder will vibrate I have mine mounted on a rubber mount and it's not bad at all

  4. Thanks - obviously I'll need ones that you can rotate each holder around the mast, correct?

    Also - are these any good for storage of rods while under power etc?

    Mine are fixed position holders with a rotating base and I have never had a problem. My rods are in the trees when I'm running.

    Check out maddocks.com a set of triple trees with adjustable bases to my door for around 215$ is hard to beat.

  5. How do you guys rig the meatball? I use them on lake George and champlain for lakers but after seeing a 1lb ball go through the windshield of an islander when A king came unbutton at the net I decided they weren't worth it for kings.

  6. Can I buy it? That seems like an awesome deal.. Dumb question because it's so cheap is this everything I need to have speed and temp? If so I would love to purchase it

    It's a td its a 1 piece unit that you clip to your line or cannonball and it gives gives you a temp every 5ft of depth. They are an awesome tool for dipseys and junk lines. They also work great to find temp if you don't have a probe.
