    Finally upgrading electronics on 21SE, sticking with Garmin

    Mine actually came with under water lights (I never use them) but noticed one is half dead with water in it, and the other I think fully dead. My bottom is painted so I'll need to strip paint for the stern saver, but wise move.

    Finally upgrading electronics on 21SE, sticking with Garmin

    I won't install until early spring, most likely. If you DO have a chance to snap a pic of your transom mount location, it would be much appreciated. Based on at least one other thread I can no longer find, I think someone mounted as far starboard as possible next to drain plug on the stepped in...

    Finally upgrading electronics on 21SE, sticking with Garmin

    Wondering if I can use B60 for depth displayed over chart only, then all bottom and side views use the GT56 on both units. Thanks for feedback, looks like this is PROBABLY the path forward. Now to scale back screen expectations :) and see if 1243 or even 1043 are enough.

    Finally upgrading electronics on 21SE, sticking with Garmin

    You are saying not worth upgrading from B60 at all for my sub 100' use? Clear and SideVu are features I'd like. My option is fairing block with through hull or 56 transom mount. I figured I'd leave B60 for redundancy and to keep bottom at speed if transom mount lost bottom at 30+ mph, which I...

    Finally upgrading electronics on 21SE, sticking with Garmin

    Thanks for the response, very logical on the install. Why this transducer? ClearVu and SideVu sound like nice upgrades sticking with Garmin. This would gain neither? 1243xs and 18 xHD may be my path forward for other devices, networked to existing unit. That should at least get ClearVu on...

    Any pics of transducer mount? Thinking of doing transom for simplicity.

    Finally upgrading electronics on 21SE, sticking with Garmin

    I bought the boat new in 2020, with the factory installed electronics, that consisted of Garmin 942xs and Airmar B60 through hull transducer. I know the unit is capable of more, but factory transducer limits it. I want a larger screen for splitting up nav and fish finder, really want more...

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    Time to play the lottery I guess.

    2024 2100SE Radar mount

    Don't go anywhere... I just responded to your Hull Truth post as well. I'm in the same boat and want to take the same approach as you. Are you fabricating the wedge and board yourself? I'm very interested. Take to DM if you don't want other feedback.

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    I am the original owner and likely forgot and incorrectly reattached one season. I'll test and swap back.

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    It is zip tied along the red battery cable in factory loom. I've had it attached to the positive terminal for years... And haven't seen ill effects yet. How the heck do I test for THIS?

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    Not a glass tube and only 5amp. I think it is too small, but I'll cough up to fluke as it took 4 years to blow. Just performed normally on today's outing.

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    Well... I'm embarrassed. After all that, it WAS a bad 5amp fuse that looked entirely in tact. Unsure why it blew, but in interest of time, respliced the new float switch in and replaced the fuse. I'll probably convert to a breaker over the winter. Thanks for pushing me for the obvious...

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    The problem is I can't see where the splice actually occurs. Tightly wrapped and under the deck within 18". I'll have to cut all zip ties and remove loom and trace, and hope for the best. I have a green wire that goes to battery 2, coming from under the deck, directly behind console and a...

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    How do I test this? Can I jump one side of float to battery? Unfortunately both float leads go into loom and out of sight quickly.

    Thanks, fuse was good, I should have posted that. Looks clean, not blown. I wire brushed battery terminals and they could probably be cleaner, but I'd think good enough. Bad grounds or connections have done funky stuff in the past but nothing obvious here.

    Common failure points for Bilge float switch? 2020 21 SE

    I'll start off by saying I rushed to conclusions and ordered a new Rule switch, swapped it out, and problem not solved. I have a 2020 21 SE, and factory everything. The manual switch works fine, but realized it wasn't pumping automatically when hopping up on plane. The boat is trailered this...

    Under Gunwale fly rod storage / OEM holder?

    Similar setup what I'm thinking of running on the port side. On the CC, there is plenty of room for 9' fly rods, but it only came with one set of holder rings vs two, as in your before pic. I only have a pair of holes to re-use as well on either side, so I'll be adding some no matter what my...

    Under Gunwale fly rod storage / OEM holder?

    I'm looking to add more under Gunwale storage for fly rods and hoping to keep factory look. My 2020 21 SE came with a single set of the holder below on either side but I'm thinking of adding a second pair per side. Does anyone know who makes the factory set or have some take offs they're want...

    What size zinc on 21 SE tabs?

    Thanks. Just ordered R2 size which I hope will just barely clear in an effort to last longer. If not, I'll get more R1 and keep an eye on them. Engine zinc looks good still. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
