I just purchased the B175 and will be replacing the smaller 2005 airmar. So going from 2.5" hole to a 3.75" hole. I am debating epoxying in a 1/2" fiberglass plate to reinforce and make drilling the new hole easier. Did you do install, have any tips or suggestions for mounting? I have no...

Anyone have approx. performance numbers of a kicker on an XL or SL 25 Parker 16 degree deadrise hull. I'm thinking 9.9 or 15hp big foot or high thrust for the boat but want to know what kind of performance to expect, I can't imagine it would push too much, but like the idea for trolling...

I bought it for 39.95 ata a small marine store in Manahawkin NJ. I am not sure of the brand, the package was blue and white. The stainless screws it came wit were also the perfect length to not go through the door, but had to make sure not to hit the groove on the outside of the door. :P I...

I love the sport slams, they work great, I use them for inshore tuna, caught a few nice blue, and yellows last year... The poles are 15' each, and I do not find them to be too flimsy. I use them alot, sometimes I'll drop one to drift an extra line for fluke. I also caught quite a few stripers...

I did all the installations except the Garmin 3010, Garmin Sounder, Dytec thru hull temp gauge and the Icom 602. That is what we put on her before she went in the water, last year, I added everything else over the past year we have had her.
