    Location of autopilot components

    The pivot point is that point where you will get no closer and no further from a point on the water (set and drift = 0). On my TC255 it is just behind the helm chair. For example, when entering or leaving port, if I need to make a sharp turn and there is a dock end to the side of the turn, I...

    Location of autopilot components

    I installed one recently on my TC. Best advice I have for you is to put the CCU as far forward as and as close to the waterline and centerline as possible. I put mine under the berth stbd side near centerline. The original location was on the waterline at the pivot point. Big difference in how...

    Transducer location

    Before you drill, have you considered a Stern Saver? I have used them for the past few installs and highly recommend them to save from drilling into your transom. Just keep as far away from ANY source of cavitation that you can. As mentioned by others, your current transducer setting appears...

    Seattle Boat Show

    We went also. Not near the selection of boats compared to pre-COVID boat shows. Fewer vendors and manufacturers. Noticeably missing was the Lowrance and Raymarine booths. With the new boat, I was looking at options to update the electronics. Garmin was the only one present so they ended up...

    Tomcat Electronics dash removal

    Yup, that's the shelf/dash I'm talking about. It houses the stereo and VHF which I would like to replace. I will post a photo when she comes back from the rigger. Getting a couple items installed before the big splash day. The forward part of it butts right up to the bulkhead above the...

    Tomcat Electronics dash removal

    Good evening all! I am trying to figure out how to remove the dash above the helm on a 2009 Tomcat. I have two radios that need to be replaced but cannot get the dash loose. I thought maybe the buttons would unscrew but no luck. Any hints or help would be appreciated.

    Water tank Location Tomcat 24

    Location is port side under the aft storage compartment, fwd of the port fuel tank. I keep mine clean by cycling diluted bleach through it before use after it has sat for any length of time. I winterize with either RV pink antifreeze or with a couple gallons of cheap vodka. Either way you do...

    down vu and side vu transducers?

    I like the side scan when going after salmon so I know where the bait balls are in relation to the boat. With a traditional downview, all you know is that the fish is somewhere in the cone. CHIRP is another thing. I believe it is worth it to get and use. The great thing about chirp is that it...
