Under fishbox, in-hull transducer placement.

Transom mount transducer placement.

That is some serious next level coolness, Bob. Cheers! :beer When I realized I was going to have to replace the new house bat if I wanted to add an AGM, I looked at the LFP option too. I compared the Renogy, Battle Born, and Mighty Max LiFePO4 batteries available on Amazon, and even BRIEFLY...

We definitely want a bigger house bank, also solar and some way to monitor usage or at least SoC, as well as considerations for the Honda 2200i. I've been kicking around ideas of putting an AGM shelf in the top of the water heater cabinet and/or the top of the galley cabinet versus adding more...

Bilge view, pump and washdown pick-up.

Splashing in Stuart, FL.

Hi Bill. I was thinking possibly as much chance user error as an actual problem until Bob gave me a chuckle. Yes, I discovered that feature listed for the DF150 on the mfg site while searching for alternator specs and amps. (Which on a sidenote was impressive. At an idle 1000 rpm they can...

Unfortunately, the mfg said they're working on new schematics for all the models but nothing is available yet. Thanks, John. You saved me several extra hours of head scratching. According to the 2 engine/3 battery ACR wiring diagram from Blue Sea: The Engines dual circuit switch connects...

Thanks, Bob, that's pretty much as I figured. Excellent suggestion. Those P-Touch labelers are great for cable management. The boat is kept 3 hours away, and I'll get some "hands-on" time to trace and flag wires tomorrow and Sunday before heading back home. The diagram is just a navigation aid...

Thanks, Joe. I requested a copy from the dealer yesterday and already sent a request via the mfg website as a backup this morning, so hopefully I'll get an answer up or down before the end of business today. If they send me anything I'll definitely upload a copy to the archives.

I'm heading down to the boat today for some electrical troubleshooting and battery/electronic/wire planning. I found the 2008 schematic uploaded to the docs (Thanks, Captains Cat), but was wondering if there are any newer diagrams floating around?

Sound advice for the nation's lightning capitol, and very relevant considering the local used 255 we passed on had already been struck by lightning. :shock: We'd both love to, but it's probably going to be a few months before the house and dock are ready for us to move down and really get some...

We felt the same way the first time we stepped onboard. Beautiful, but the sticker shock set us to searching the used boat market instead. Unfortunately after seeing the 2018, we were spoiled for any other boat and just didn't know it yet. If you find the numbers crunch a little better in the...

Thank you all for the well wishes, and I have to give the credit to the missus for the name. If I can get the letters on straight enough I'll take credit for that. :wink:
