Well I ended up ordering my same start battery, the D34M Optima. I did order the LiTime 230ah plus Lithium for the house. I think it should work but I’m going to find out.
I posted this in “Electronics” and now moving to projects for help.
I’ve started doing some research on replacing my start and house batteries this spring.
I did the original project and purchased my current set in the spring of 2017. I started getting low voltage shut down on my inverter only...
I had this made about 10 years ago. Has a zip out to get to the rods. It’s a dodger attached to the top with a track. Dodger zips into the small bimini. Very stable, I can run in any seas or winds with it. Can still handle rods in the back if trolling and not in way stepping in on jump seat.
I have a system using shore power and an inverter when not on shore power. It’s a Wabasto FCF 5K BTU marine system. I have a 200AH house battery and a Xantrax pure sign wave hardwired inverter. You outboard power is going to make the biggest difference in runtime based out stater/alt output. My...
Happy Thanksgiving CP crew.

I installed a UFLEX Silversteer SV-28 or close. It was rated up to 300HP. I did it in 2016 and it has given me no issues. Seems to be a quality product. I’m pretty sure Wart recommended it to me back then. Good luck with the fix.
Pelagic is spot on. Mine is currently out as well and I need to check the fuse and or replace the float switch. Manual is also working fine on mine. My fuse is an automotive style and it is mounted right next to the positive terminal of my start battery. I’ve highlighted to fuse location.
A follow up report after a couple of months. I’ve been using the manual down instead of the free fall mode. So far it has functioned without jams or any issues. I think going with a 100’ of chain helps with that. Now that I can see how the set up lays in the locker I wish I had gone to 125’ of...
I’ve never heard of such a thing in NC. 95% of everyone power loads at our ramps. 95% of everyone has bunk trailers. Our tide is about 3 to 4’ depending. I get what you are saying I’ve just never heard anything about not doing it. Do people use roller trailers a lot in NJ? I lived there when I...
Without seeing the dock set up….. I would approach just like you drew it. Timing the last of the forward thrust before neutral in a full left turn to head towards parallel with the dock. After neutral, turn the wheel back to straight to however right you need then put in reverse to pull the...
I had the PVC pole guides on my new trailer and I ended up taking them off after the first year with them. I probably would have done it sooner but I just didn’t get to it. When you are crabbing in on approach they almost do more harm than good after the bow bounces off one and messes up...
