The boat has a 90 hp merc 4 stoke with a 50 amp alternator. Thanks for the info. Learn something everyday. Given how infrequently I use the TM, I will hook it up as suggested by Wart to the TM. Then hook it up to the BEP and shut it off to the TM bank if I am using it heavily for that...

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to shed a little more light on what I am trying to do. I have a 25' Parker that I use to fish saltwater thus my connection to this site . The boat I am working on is my fresh water boat, a 17' Lund I purchased used this season that I use to fish the lakes here...

I am installing a BEP cluster switch on my 17' lund. The forward batteries were never tied into the main electrical system so they received no benefit of charging from the motor. I'm using #2 awg wire to run back to the stern for hookup to the switch. The diagram shows fuse protection going...

:?: We have the standard cab so we don't have the steps. The base is connected directly to the floor. The nice thing is the setup does not effect our ability to go forward. Phil, nice setup and nice tuna. Shows how well the setup will work. We have considered the winch setup but thought...

We have a 2005 2520 mv notched and regularly fish offshore for groundfish and tuna and have no issues whatsoever with water shipping in the notch. Been out in some very snotty weather too. On the other hand, when trying to get a tuna around the back of the boat I have been very glad we didn't...

We did it this past winter after struggling to lift in tuna over the side last summer. Redmond Marine in Eliot, Me made it up for us. The top can be detached but is generally just secured in over the top. Noelle can make the whole unit detachable if desired but we opted not to as it really is...

It's not just up to 2004. My motor was manufactured in 2005 and was totally gone when it was surveyed before purchasing. It was repaired before I purchased the boat and cost considerably more than what is being charged for the repair now.

Search "Tunacious" in the 'Introduce yourself' forum to see how we solved the problem of lifting in tuna. It swings in over the deck so you can lay the tuna down gently onto the deck. Put the crew on the opposite side of the boat with the ropes to counter the weight of that thousand pounder.

Welcome to ME Coastie. You will have some beautiful waters to explore in your 21 SE in the Bar Harbor area.

We'll attach a triple pulley to the pole and be able to lift in all those 1000# tuna we are going to catch this summer. Look out .COM!! :lol:

Hi Guys, Thought it was time to break the ice and introduce our boat, Tunacious, to the group. She is a 2005 2520 SL that my son-in-law and I picked up the spring of 2012. She is shown here at our mooring in Eliot, ME on the Piscataqua River. Don't mind my son-in-law, I know he's a little...
