I have the same problem as my radar pedestal is blocking my light. Where do you go to get a longer post and can you just get the post, keep the old plug and lamp and just splice a longer wire, or is it not worth the trouble, and just get a longer kit? Thanks Jim

Great, thanks for the info. I'm really impressed with the I-PAD GPS, so I can't wait to see what Navionics looks like. We were talking the on ther day and i think it may not be too soon that raymarine and other vedors start packaging some of thier lower end models around the I-PAD and get out of...

Guys, anyone have an I-Pad with Navionics Charts for Canada that includes, Nova Scotia? I have the Gold version for canada on my RayMarine E80, but i'm not sure what to download for my I-Pad. They have one called Marine&Lakes US&Canada, but i'm not sure this is going to cover all of east coast...

I did this 2 years ago and it was not that big a deal for me. Here is the details from my old post. First you remove the gunwale storage on the side with gas cap. Next there are 3 screws and a bolt. The two (2) ½ inch outside screws bed to the fiberglass deck. The inside screw is actually a 2...

I get my parts at browns Point marine as they are only 20 mins from my home. They seem to have good prices on Engine parts, but maybe not so great on other things. But no tax for you. Here is there link: http://store.brownspoint.com

I did my Impeller this year also on an 115DF. It’s a 2007, but only has 90 hours of salt water use on it. The biggest pain was that I had to take my Permatrim off first, so I could remove all the lower unit bolts. I had used a generous amount of 3M 4200 on the Permatrim install, so it took me an...

Thanks Guys, You have convinced me that this is not a DIY, as I don't have a lift and don't know what issues and or tools I may run into. I'll leave it to the professionals, once I determine, I should have it raised. Have a great weekend. Jim

I have an 115HP Suzuki and was wondering if this raising the Engine Project can be done by a owner without too much trouble and or a lift? Or is this a take it to the Boat Yard project? I have an issue where my Permatrim does not really drive my bow down and I need to use ¾ trim tabs to get her...

Hi and thanks for the bus bar idea. As I don’t have access to my boat right now, I’ll have to check whether there is one currently for the Positive legs. I know there is one for the negative legs. Based on your comments, and not having chart software, let me see if I have it right. 1...

I guess I have somewhat the same question. I would like to install a (3) dedicated house battery, as today I just have two batteries that can both function as a start/house depending on the switch setting. I have installed a dual ARC for the two batteries with an integrated into the switch. My...

I tow my 22’ with a 2006 Nissan Frontier V6 4.0L 4X4 and a 6 speed manual and also a 2003 Ranger V6 4.0L 4X4 and a 5 speed auto. Both have towing packages. I have a dual axle trailer with brakes. I use the Frontier for long hauls, +25 miles and up hills and have gone +400 miles in Maine, New...

Got me. Past my pay grade on this one, unless you can see the switching take place via a ohm/volt meter. Let me know what you find out? I'm using the same two battery types, so I don't see me having the same concerns that you may have. Jim

I just installed the unit and then put the boat away for the season, so I can’t really tell you what I’m seeing. You are asking the same question I had when I went with this product. I contacted Guest who makes both the Switch, VSR and Charger I have. They told me there would not be a problem. I...

Thanks Guys. I will go to a local dealer and see if they have a longer mast, before trying to replace the GPS Puck with the light. If I go that route I may see if I can just get the attachment that adds a second place to install the light along side the GPS Puck. Jim

Anyone know where you can get a longer Mast Head Light? As I just started to travel at night, and I realized that with my Radar on its pedestal the Mast Head Light is too short as the radar blocks it from behind. So I need a longer light rod or have to rewire and or buy the connector were the...

Hi Greg, yes I know I in may case I could just add the relay, but I thought is was worth the cost of not having do do the separate wiring from the old switch to the relay and also i figure I will save some space with the one unit, be it very little. This unit is a dual relay, which will change...

I'm going with this even though I have a blue sea switch. This seems like the easiest install and takes up the least about of room. As you know storage room is at a premium. It's $119 from Defender. http://www.bepmarine.com/home-mainmenu- ... tery-banks

Hi Art. Thanks for the reply. My setup is a little different as I only have one engine, two batteries and don’t plan to add a third right now. The switch and VSR is this model with only one switch and VSR. This is the switch and VSR: www.bepmarine.com/home-mainmenu-8/produ ... tery-banks It’s...

I’m thinking of installing a BEP 714-100A 701 Battery Selector Switch With 100A Dual Sensing VSR and was wondering if I have to worry about how this unit will work with my shore power Guest charging system. In looking at any of the BEP diagrams I can find, they only show the charging system...
