Thanks Bob. I have seen these pics but no one shows the cylinder head anode. The two on the rectifier are easy, its that darn cylinder head that is driving me nuts.

I want to change the anodes in my DF140s. After looking at the schematics on brownspoint.com, I know where the two on the rectifier are. The one on the cylinder head is eluding me. Do I need to disassemble a bunch of stuff to get at it? The schematic is not very helpful. Any info would be great...

I have the aluminum tanks. All the documentation that I have read never mention 68 gal capacities. Thanks for the link Bob, great to read those write-ups from 15 or so years ago. The closest the article came was a 124gal capacity and even mentioned an option for 180gals. I think before I pay...

So here's the question. 2005 tomcat 24 has a fuel capacity of what? Written on the bulkhead by one tank it says 68 gals. So i assume thats 68 gals per side. I took a trip which ended up being 98 nm round trip and the fuel gauge needles pegged on empty. Aside from the pucker factor of making it...

I have Suzuki 140's on my TC. The only time I get those kind of sounds is when the RPMs are out of sync. There is a difference between a marine surveyor and marine mechanic unless you are getting one that takes on both resposibilities. If there is a question about the engines, get a marine...

After a great time at the Friday Harbor GT, Launa and I will definetly be there. I will book space in the morning. Looking forward to meeting more C-Brats and seeing again all who we met in Friday Harbor.

I spot prawn in areas 6 and 7. Gear is expensive (upwards of $2500 for everything) and depending on the puller, not all of it is transferable to another boat. Best to hook up with someone during a low current flow day and go see how it all works. As Red stated, not always a full limit day as...

Since this CBGT will be our first, looking for some advice on what to bring aside from the standard on water camping gear. Are there going to be potlucks or organized meals? Is there an official activity program? Is there going to be an organized cruise through the islands? Sooo many questions...

Definetly sounds like you have a new ducer in your future. At $125 for a P66, its not horribly expensive. Steve

With the boat on the trailer, are you able to hear the transducer clicking when turnrd on? If not or if the clicking is not strong, it's time to replace the transducer. They are wear items and need to be replaced periodically. If you are loosing bottom at a cetain speed, it's generally because...

The boat show is the 12th through the 15th, so hopefully the nice weather this weekend gets folks out there next weekend. Its not a new show, but the last time it was on was 2012 I think. I see that LFS is sponsoring it this year and they are one of my favorite stores. My wife generally has...

The PSBS is on in Tacoma this year. Anyone planning to go? Wondering if NMI will be bringing a C-Dory, hopefully a Tomcat, to this one. I will be there Thursday to Saturday, see you there!

the lcx does accept lowrance radar but not sure about 3g or 4g. The lcx is discontinued and it would be better to talk with a lowrance system designer to see how or if the older models will be compatible with the newer components. Semperfifishing or your local Lowrance rep will be able to...

The way I would run it is to chirp off the gen3 unit and run standard 50/200 on the lcx. This of course will change with your application. If I was in dedicated fishing mode and needed a chart up, then chirp on the gen 3 and chart or 50khz and chart split on the lcx. And even chirp/structure...

The lcx will network with the new unit which would get you the second unit you are looking for. Good advice from Bob in talking with Semperfifishing. He has the tools to help you with your system design. Upgrades are always fun.

If you are looking at Simrad, take a look at lowrance 9" gen 3. It does everything the simrad does PLUS wireless network. That means if you have an Ipad, then you have a second unit. It will do the lowrance autopilot (not from ipad) as well. The lss2 and chirp transducers will cost about 200...

The vent from the toilet goes to a thru hull vent where it should. The tube under the sink is a 'tool' for something. It made sense that it to block the vent tube for the pump out since it has a cap on it, its 2' long and the O.D. Of the tube fits the I.D. Of the vent hose. But now it seems...

Thank you for the quick feedback. My next course of action sounds like i need to fill it up with freshwater and try again. Fortunately there is only liquid in there right now. So keep the vent tube on and unobstructed? Then what the heck is that tube under the sink for??? Lol Steve

I am having a problem getting the pump out function of this toilet to work. The first attempt failed because I could not plug the overboard vent line which prevented me from getting a vacuum. I had my 'ahh moment' when I realized what the tube and cap under the sink is for. I installed the tube...
