I agree, better to trace the line, yourself, and then mark the unit. Ours has five gates, one for each main engine and gear, plus one for the...
Can't imagine folks actively "not liking" them. Would think more often its a question of "degree of need," priorities, finances, viability, ease...
Got it. Turns out my crew and I won't be available.... but it'll help that you've added that info here, so others can see... Good luck with...
What vessel? -Chris
I'd have thought that would have been an Excursion; I know diesel was available, and I'm pretty sure the big gas option was the V-10 in that. I...
I forgot about that one. Those rear seats be a plus. I can fold ours (Suburban) in a couple different configurations, lay stuff on top of the...
Maybe Suburban/Yukon XL/Escalade ESV... or an older Excusion. -Chris
Head, certainly. We'd probably shop for a "good head, with a center console attached." At that point, again assuming our boating life has...
And I hope OP doesn't think I was trying to talk her out of a stern thruster upgrade. I only meant to be waxing eloquently about her...
Dunno. High speed wouldn't be a goal for me, though. No, haven't seen that. I've only seen pics of engine mounted further aft, under the...
Wouldn't seem exceptional to me. If your boat driver is using bow and stern thrusters for sideways movement, and only using gears for fore/aft...
Maybe largely because outboards can be fully tilted out of the water, not because they're inherently great. And because there weren't as many...
Maybe not a bad concept for starting a business by funding a charter boat captain... (I'd have to think more about that)... But my first thought...
I strung a 5-meter LED "rope" around the front half of our engine room, and just tied it into the existing 12V circuit. It made such a...
Thanks. Outside storage -- apart -- could work. -Chris
Thanks for ideas. Our house is sort of gingerbread-like, mostly chopped up small-ish spaces (including the two separate attics), no long runs......
FWIW, I have read that the C-Map charts for the Bahamas area are the Explorer Charts (maybe that means they're derived from Explorer Charts)....
Thanks, I'll have a closer look. One correspondent discovered the guide wires themselves go for about $1K... so I'd just as soon not mess with...
Useful to know. The parts diagram -- must be about a gazillion parts on each -- makes it look very complicated. -Chris
Ref Suburban: "Dropped the model..." ?? Is that an Avalanche -- not a Suburban -- in your pic? -Chris
