DIY Live Bait Tank - Few Problems with Adhesive Mounting Bracket
Thunderace replied to lostproperty's topic in Boating
get a piece of polyethylene not nylon chopping board sika to back , use a large enough piece and it wont go anywhere like this I did for my transducer -
That guy off fishing australia was using carp fillets as bait off the house boat in the clyde river, reckoned it was nice and tough to stay on the hook

It may be dumb question but what are they doing wrong, it doesn't matter to me , just wondering ??? -
I've got mine mounted on the curve but have it mounted right on the edge, so this straightens it up a bit, I also have a piece of nylon mounted under the quick release puck, the angle doesn't seem to make a difference but there is a bit of flexing of the aluminium, I also didn't mount mine right at the nose, so i didn't have to cut the bow rails and also so it fitted in with my windscreen better, and it hasn't seem to make a difference Like this not like this

mozzie love aeroguard, go the bushmans

I use the berkely ramp next to the fish and chip shop, good ramp, jetty near by, not busy unless tralier sailers turn up in the arvo, and if you have no luck you cna go the fish shop next door !!!

mine gets stuck on the skids, any idea what i can put on them to make it more slippery ????
-
I brought a 798 SI from OS, feet isn't a issue, divide by 3, speed , does it really matter how fast your going, temp, I laminated and stuck a conversion next to the sounder, saved $600, and I only fish lakes and rivers so the uni map is fine, no detail on the navionics card for there anyway

2 tenths of bugger all

Yep, I still own one, 100K and still going Yes I reckon I will have to run with the motor as far down as it will go Thanks

This what i brought look up game.valley on e.b.a.y. , 2 x WHITE 48 LED Strip Light For all Style Cars 12V I put inside a 10mm aluminium channel, and double sided tape to underneath the gunnells I also built a dimmer for the LEDs as they are very bright at full strength the two photos at the bottom doesn't show the true extent of the dimming

I'm buying a Minn Kota for the front of my runabout (with windscreen), below there are two option for mounting, The second one allows me to keep both bow rails and it is also easier to release (as it's less distance to learn over) obviously this method will put the motor a bit further off centre, is this a issue ?????, Thanks

This is what I've done with my boat http://www.breammaster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=33727 Stuart

After going thru the process of trying to uprate a hull, unless the manufacturer will do it, NO CHANCE, and I doubt the manufacturer will want anything to do with it either. I was only talking about 5hp difference !!!
-
you need to determine what is max for the hull not the reccommended max
-
There is a rubber plug that goes in the transducer which eliminates almost all of the roostertail I can take a photo of it if you need
-
I've just installed the same sounder, the only the 2nd photo shows the correct perspective, from this one its pretty close to the manual, that said, it isn't hard to move it and give it a run Also I notice that you don't have the rubber plug that goes in the bracket, it stops th bloody big rooster tail, I need a bit of oil to slip mine in Stuart

why don't they rerun Rex, hell, they rerun Hogans heroes and MASH

Picked up my new 798 Humminbird today, and now for the install, any ideas about head mounting or position Thanks Stuart
-
Been looking at a HDS or Humminbird 788, does the boat show have great prices on items like these. If I save $5 I'd rather buy it of someone I know thanks
