Good luck with the knee and wishes for a speedy recovery. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I will need to get a permanent tank then. Bummer, the portable tank is only a year old and I always removed it from the boat and kept it in my garage when not in use. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Hello fellow tin boaters, I have a 1996 Crestliner 16 foot side console Jon with a 50hp Mercury 2 stroke that I use on the flats. Last year I went from a 6 gallon rear mounted gas tank to a 12 gallon mounted behind the center bench on the port side. I put it on the port side so I could still...

Totally agree on the maps. I had a Garmin 541s and maps were awesome. I have navionics on my phone and I use it now. Hmmm wonder if I could score a used tablet from Craigslist to use? That would be perfect. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Rich I have the helix 5 si. When I'm looking in an area where I want to navigate to with submerge trees this is how I do it. Say I'm moving from South to North. I approach the southern most edge of the area on the eastern shoreline. I then turn my side imaging on for the starboard side and...

I pulled my rig down to the Keys, about a 4 hour haul, a few months after I got her with no transom saver. I could see the 50HP motor bouncing around and swinging side to side even while resting on the "lock". When I dropped it in the water it wouldn't start. Diagnosis, no spark, ignition module...

25 boats? Sir, you may have an addiction. Probably uncurable I'm afraid. Never heard of a 12 step program for that. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

After replying to richs battery charger post in the electrical section i realized how many parts and accesories I've added to my tin that are second hand. All of it in fine working order and saved me a ton of money. I'll list mine and I would like others to do the same. Guest 10 amp dual bank...

I have the guest brand of this same charger. I mounted it under the console and added a marine 110 volt plug to the side of the console. I extended the cables for the trolling motor battery 14 feet to the front deck using 10 gauge tinned wire with a 7.5 amp fuse at the battery. I extended the...

I've had these for a year and I weigh 270 lbs and have had no issues. I love these seats. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

I have a 16 foot crestliner side console with a 50 hp mercury 2 stroke, I have a 12 gallon Atwood amidships off to the port side, this helps with weight distribution. The most I've ever used is 6 gallons on a full day out on the flats. Rich as to the additional tank I used a 2 gallon urea jug...

Pics of the crestliner? I have a 1995 Crestliner mod-v 16' side console with a 50 hp mercury 2 stroke. I found it to be too stern heavy. I eliminated the 6 gallon fuel tank in the rear and went with a 12 gallon mounted behind the front casting deck. It really brought the rear up and completely...
