Its not as easy to compare group size as it used to be since some of the high performance pure lead thin plate AGM batteries have better then average output and weight. I personally would not run anything larger then a group 27 Northstar for TM's. Especially for an 80lb unit. You have to compare the...

I believe they are a Johnson Control product. All of the JC batteries are the same construct except the spiral cell Optima's.

Drew,
Do you know who makes the Costco batteries?

There are 3-4 manufactures to choose from. The different names are just re-stickered. The best for your application would be the Northstar manufactured group 24 (57lbs, 160min RC) or 27(68lbs, 195min RC). Tackle Warehouse Drakon or Batteries plus X2. Eastpenn Deka Orielly's Carquest (older) + many o...

Good one.

Hard to deny that we have let our country be taken over by idiots.

We let the irrational and lazy make legislation.

The title of the article is wrong. It should read Successful CA Business Uses X Amount of Water to Meet its Customers Demands. I guess their bad people because they supply us with good products, bring money into the country, employ thousands and their philanthropists. Has this turned into a Bernie s...

It is made by Bass Boat Solutions the same company that is responsiable for the Flowrite unit.

I have never seen a dry ARB in a bait caster from the factory. On spinning reels the ARB should not be lubed. Because of the higher load in BC reels since it supports the crank it should be lightly oiled. http://fish.shimano.com/content/sac-fish/en/home/customer-service/reel-maintenance-instructions...

No so true anymore now that there is linking. The OP registered for all three on the first day. Good luck to everyone.

If someone is far out but committed to all three events they could be out if they don't find a link. Its especially a bummer if such person is doing well in the points. This event should draw 110+ boats so I think you will get in. Although it does depend on how many link. Me finding a link isn't goi...

How far out are you on the waiting list? Most of the western Pro's pay the late fee and register late. I have no idea how pro's have signed up at this time but I bet its low and if your close maybe within 20 from being confirmed then you will most likely get in. The linking will hurt some of the co'...

Never imported does not make sense.

The Chronarch E51 is the same reel with different paint, but the frame is out of stock.

I guess they will now allow a co if registered and on the waiting list to link with a Pro that has not registered. Also it has to be after the registration dead line. ? I got a call from them today and they said I am on a waiting list. They said if I found a boater that was going to fish that I woul...

I went away from the inflatables several years ago because I was skeptical of their performance and they provide very little other value. I have been using a Mustang Accel 100 vest since. It does eliminate the inflatable failure possibility but its not ideal. Its also Chinese made which is a real bu...

The pure lead AGM Exides are made by Northstar same as the Diehard PM's. The reg. AGM's are only offered in a group 24 deep cycle. Only a few actual manufacturers. $215 is a good price for the Deka AGM (East Penn), Orielly's sells it for $229. Although Orielly's does run sales occasionally. I know, ...

I have a East Penn Deka regular wet cell group 27 and it has been good. The house deep cycle marine batteries at CarQuest and Orielly's are made by East Penn and are the exact same batteries as the Deka's. You can buy the PM1 equivalent different label same battery from Odyssy, Cables pure lead, Nor...

There are only 3-4 battery manufactures. The labels change but the product is the same. The three main are Johnson controls, East Penn and Northstar. Optima is a Johnson Controls product but they are unique because of the spiral design. Do not pick a battery by its group size. You need to compare th...

Trailers can be worth a lot, especially those Ranger trailers. Maybe $7-10K When you fill out the initial assessment deceleration subtract the trailer amount from the low NADA or purchase price. Usually they will be close to the low side of the value if not you can dispute it. Thanks for the reply T...

There is no CA luxury tax. I think your referring to your counties property tax on your boat. The tax is for your boat, permanent equipment and motor not the trailer. This applies to property that is located in the county on Jan 1st. The county will use a few different methods to evaluate the value ...

If it would not require more regulation I would prefer they did not have weapons.

In most cases the fish does not have to be hooked in the mouth is why. Normally only when sight fishing. This was a case of an obscure Wisconsin law. Also he might have been under the impression that if it was hooked in the mouth initially and comes unbuttoned then it was legal. Hummm why was the fi...

I don't think they do not do that anymore.

Mechanical devices fail. Safeties are not safe. I wear a non inflatable after having issues in the past.

I have a very nice one that was balanced by Phils. Has very little use. I moved up to a 26. Would like to get $375 for it. PM me if your interested.

Peltier and Lutes won the ABA Pyramid tournament on 4/26. So I would say yes. Justin Kerr or Robert Lutes would have his current number.

IMO It will not be anymore competition for Robo then any other piece of plastic that can be hung off a DS. The quality is not as good and they cost more. Besides it is a different shape.

What is your top speed? How about your trim angle? You might try coming up 1/4" to see if it requires less trim to get to max RPM. You can't drive while the boat is walking. It is just not safe. If your hull has a pad and is the type that will walk then you need to learn how to drive the boat t...

I'm guessing but I think your experiencing chine walk. Some boats do it and some don't but usually the faster hulls do. I would start by making sure everything is in good working order. Check your steering for play at the OB. Bushings and/or air in the system if its hydraulic steering etc. If everyt...

I'm sure an invasive species that the people paid for would have such an impact in any other state. Maybe those that vote for Hilary.

IMO it has no affect on the lb/acre of the fishery. If the numbers go down then the average weight goes up.

If there was an alarm it will be recorded in the PCM. Sometimes there can be an RPM related alarm if there is a fuel delivery issue, borderline oil level or water starvation causing an over heat cond.. These can be intermittent. These alarms are not the typical multi or constant beep alarms because ...

drew

Usually an alarm is caused from overheating or low oil in either of the two reservoirs. If you have a smartcraft gauge you can look up the cause of the alarm. If not you need to bring it to a dealer to find out why. Do not use it until you find the cause.

East Penn Deka 27. The Carquest and Orielly batteries are the same. They're made by East Penn. Mine cost about $100 and is working very good.
