    Electrical issue question

    I have a FIRM policy about boats, unless I wired it I strip ALL wires out and rewire EVERYTHING myself. Always home run to my fuse panel, I never use in line fuses................ but that's just me...... Life is too short to chase electrical gremlins that someone else left behind..... And...

    Coleman Crawdad.. with swamp runner mud motor.....

    When I buy a boat I start a "file" and add all of the papers related to that craft. Titles, receipts, etc. etc. When I sell that boat it goes to the new owner, after that there's no telling what happens......

    Electrical issue question

    Does your stereo have preset AM/FM stations? If so the memory pulls power 24/7.

    Pontoon yacht.

    3" diameter Ram mount to be drilled down in the front deck of my VT18 Crestliner Question

    Think about using RAM mounts. They have endless possible combinations and are much sturdier than they look. I used one on the Little Boat (it was the most logical choice) and am surprised by it. Glad I tried it...... DUH...... never mind.....

    "Cruise" several Marina's and see what's there for ideas..... The trip cruising them could be an adventure in and of itself......

    Boat ramp traffic way down and fewer boats on the water?

    I'm sure ya;ll know that there are different levels of inflation/flotation?? One is in the 20's and uses the small cartridge and the other is in the 30's and uses the large canister. Make sure you have the larger type and you should be okay.....
