Re: DE 27.5
I made a load cell setup for my boat. It was pretty sketchy. The cells were bending on the mounts and the boat had to be level and was kinda leaning and moving. Much easier to get a trailer under and take it to a commercial scale. Mine was a different story at 17’ wide. I could send you the stuff, b...

Re: 1988 HydraSports 2500 WA Vector
Please give us a picture of the transom area to help is make sure we are not missing anything. The intersection of the stringers and knees is vital in transferring loads from transom to hull. You cannot slide puttied panels down into a groove, so stringers must be cut back and repaired to replace a ...

Re: 1988 HydraSports 2500 WA Vector
So, your big question is on the glass needed. Always tricky for us to provide you with a soec because we are not composites engineers and someday a person hangs a couple 425hp off the back and blames us for friendly tips when their boat sinks. Tort law makes that possible. Your wood is too light at ...

Re: LB26
Boat looks good and the humor is always fun. I think you ought to ask for a refund and skip the photography class. I have one criticism of the boat which you will ultimately likely agree with…and hate me now for saying. Those hatches on the aft bench area all needed to be on the side. You will const...

Re: New boat from elsewhere
It looks like 3/16" zip ties will be my go to size, spaced and tightened a little as I go. I was also considering the little pieces of PVC pipe to help with alignment. I saw that on a video and that looks like a nice little trick to help things go together. My boat will have fiber glass on the...

Cameras are not related to Cerbo. They are Reolink and I wish they had a zoom feature.

Re: Lithium Retrofit
I installed a Raymarine Axiom 9 and a Furuno tzt12L in the same place. The Raymarine would not pickup GPS with an antenna, so I backfed it with the Furuno data which is flawless thus far, no antenna. The river is too small for me to setup my autopilot full config, but I can run the AP on a small cou...

Re: Lithium Retrofit
It sounds awesome, but I'd have a hard time getting 6 people. I want to do salmon and grayling.
