Jack plate installed. Thanks to Jacker Plate in lake Charles La. He built it, text me pics, then mailed it in two days. And it was $125!! Haven't tried it yet, but it looks great.

That lift is killer. Wish I had access to something like that. My old trailer needs some tlc.

Sweet build!!!!

I decided a while back I was going to spend 1k on my old boat vs buying another, so....More upgrades! Installed a hummingbird helix 5 with down scan, side imaging and gps today. Also ordered a jack plate. Should be here this week.

I know the angle is off a little but otherwise? Why is it reading all over the place?

I'm having trouble with my depth finder reading properly since installing the pods. Anyone have experice with this?

Bingo. I am now looking for a jack plate. My engine is one notch from max height and needs to go up more. I never thought about the pillow of water effect you describe. Anyone have suggestions on type and place to get a jack plate??

I thought about this after i got them. Wish I had gone with the mediums but was unsure how it would workout and I didn't want to deal with trying to return them via mail. This boat is 16.5 and 56" wide.

I'm in Kentucky. Boat tag is like $28 a Year. I'm not telling them I did anything to it and they don't ask.

They add 250 lbs in buoyancy in the stern so you can counter him or the motor! I thought about filling mine with some kind of foam so I can forget the plug issue. Thoughts?

Not a bad idea. I don't like the drain plugs in these. Would rather have a screw in brass plug. Would be too easy to lose a plug and fill a pod with water. I googled these pods, was going to buy from Cabelas online then found them $20 cheaper with free shipping from Walmart.

Ordered some beaver tail float pods (from Walmart.com of all places) $250 for the pair. Had the local Welding school slap them on there and tada! I'm pretty pleased on my initial trial. Seems to have a lot more buoyancy in the stern. It rides a bit higher. Cuts the same. And yet much more...

I have tried everything, unhooked the cable from the motor. pulled it off the motor so to make it straight. took the bends out of the cable. its somewhat better on the trailer, then i drop it in the water and get up to speed it stiffens up again?? if i order a new cable can i get it custom...

Never heard of them? what kind of lights? do you have a website?

i used it the other day to plug some old depth finder transducer holes. took about 2 min's flat and has worked so far!

Elite 4x dsi after going through several cheap sonar units I have been blown away with the dsi. Wish I'd sprung for the bigger unit with gps now.

So... i feel like an idiot. all this time i did not think i could easily disconnect the head. Takes about 2 seconds. Thank you tnriverluver.

Insure it to the hilt and to hell with the foam

What material did you use? My wife is pretty handy with a sewing machine. thanks!

I have the elite 4x desk sonar unit, I don't think it's easily removed.
