    Yes the specific fit kit for what it consists of was expensive for a couple brackets. Wish you could get just the kit you need instead of a hole bunch of ones that will not be used that came in the core pack. Hopefully I can get enough throttle range out of it it didn't come with throttle linkage to stop tiller linkage backfeeding it.

    I got my kit of Amazon as well as a nema 2000 starter kit that you need if you want to use a garmin chart plotter and the ghc50 display. And I had to buy directly from garmin a Yamaha efi fit kit for my throttle and steering connection. I have a 2025 Yamaha high thrust tiller and the fit kit is not in the core pack. And yes I installed myself its not hard if you have some mechanical aptitude.

    I find a clear trip Z diver is extremely effective and once tripped cannot even tell it's on the line . I run them on a diver rod with about a 10 foot leader with a size 40 trip diver.

    Brads super baits work awesome behind a flasher stuffed with tuna in oil for kings and Lakers. I have caught a few steelhead on them as well . As far as laketrout are concerned they out fish spin and glows hands down behind cowbells .

    I had kicker motor interference to my control King speed control servo motor after installation of a 2024 Yamaha high thrust 25 HP this past spring. I purchased a 12 volt noise filter online and installed to power supply to control King and problem solved .

    Update! Talked with Controll king and it is a electrical noise issue so going to install a noise isolater between power connection and control king head unit also going to use some ferrit clamps to reduce any further noise issues. Apparently it's never hurts to put them on things like data cables and sonar cables as well as vhf cables . Was able to get everything from Amazon for under 30:00 bucks so that's a plus if any further action is need guess I need to isolate to separate battery.

    I just run my furuno in heads up mode and make sure to set up orientation properly. It's pretty simple to tell where the vessel is coming from especially if you put trals on .

    Ok so I have a controll King throttle control system that worked just fine on my 2005 carborated Yamaha t9.9 hp . I just installed a 2023 Yamaha t25 kicker and swapped out servo to function on the t25 and all works perfectly when engine is off . When engine is running it still functions but servo is surging erratically. If I run the kicker motor and run just the controll King of a isolated battery everything works perfectly. My kicker has a 16 amp charging circuit and is charging at 13.5 volts is this to much for controll King or could it be electrical noise issue. How could I fix this without using a stand alone battery? I have reached out to controll King but have not heard back yet . Thanks

    I have had many boats and trailers trust me a bunk trailer is way safer for your vessel.

    Ck out Cme trolling ask Chip for recommendations on what his go to Riggs are . In my opinion his quality is second to none. And his big eye flies are a must have !

    Mexico bay was full of fish Monday. Flasher fly on a diver was the ticket.
