Re: battery charging question

first how old is it ,is a maintenance free or do you have to add water? If it is fully charged now have a load test put on it. That will give you an idea if it is going bad or if you might have a batter charger poroblem

If your current mount is a gator mount the holes will match up. It it is a smaller mount they will not.

Re: Motorguide or minnkota

If you decide to buy used make sure it has all the upgrades especially the motorguide. Motorguides built 2003 and before are not Digital and they are not making parts for them anymore unless they have been converted to didgital.

Well I don't know about the rest of you but the start of this season sucks. It seems there are a lot less local ducks then last year and until we get some weather up north it doesn't look like it is going to get any better.
