    The weight of my boat.

    I fully restored my boat last year from the hull up. Over the weekend I put it on a scale to see what it weighs. It came in at 1350 pounds. And that's without my 2 marine batteries for the trolling motor. So there's probably another 200 pounds. I noticed in the specs in it's original brochure...

    Hey Rotus may I ask. Why the Humminbird Onix over the Helix? Just curious. Both come with a pretty hefty price tag. Does the Onix do something the Helix or Legacy's don't?

    Transducer causing rooster tail behind boat

    All good stuff guys thanks. Didn't think of just wrapping tape around it to see if that fixes it. I have a HumminBird 587 ci. When I did the re-build I removed the trolling motor and everything off the bow. Now all that's up there is the anchor. I did however install a livewell about mid...

    gas/ oil mix.

    The way I understand it you want De-Oxygenated Gas. Period. Anything else will just gum up the mix. However I would wait for guys with much more experience to weigh in.
