Yes, I live on a 200 acre lake in SW Ohio and fish in and around docks, riprap, and shoreline. Most of the waters I fish locally are less than 15’. I ordered the micro remote & will see how this...
I was cautiously hopeful- the trim up/down feature gets used a lot on my boat. One of the reason's I bought my 122v Ulterra. So, with TM in “ulterra mode, I can trim up/down with the micro remote...
Thanks for clarifying, Bob. I will go to my iPilot Link manual and read up on. I’d store my foot control altogether but like being able to raise the motor/prop up when bait is snagged in shallow.
When you say “cruise control”, are you referring to the auto pilot button on the top right of the micro remote?
I have the iPilot. I have not tried the cruise control so will to play around with it this spring. Looks like I will be buying a micro control at my trip to Cabela’s this afternoon. Thanks
OK. I did not know there was a “micro” remote. Looks like this will be my best option and keep the touch screen remote at the helm.
Yep- my balance is not what it use to be. Hopefully, I’ll be trolling for walleye on Lake Erie more this year. Finally have myself set-up with 15 HP EFI Mercury kicker, boards, etc.
My 2019 Ulterra came with a remote but I come from a bass fishing background & MK Fortrex. I have not gotten use to using the remote yet. So, I may need to put the foot control away and learn the...
Is there an adjustment for the Speed Control dial on the foot pedal? I inadvertently move the dial with my foot from a low to high setting (example: 3 to 9) and it darn near knocks me off my feet....
Joe B- if you install VesselView after having your boat & motor for 1 year, will it tell you the engine hours previously logged or just from when you first install VesselView?
Mactlman- that's what I thought. Not sure what a rev limiter is but motor seems to be idling normally at 800 rpms. Let's hook up sometime next week or do you think I need to have compression checked...
Danrude- I thought 6200-6300 was high. When I get a chance, I will have the compression checked and see if holeshot improves. Thanks for info- how do you like your E-Tec?
There is a good population of LM - average size keepers are 1.5 - 2.5 lbs. Just fished last night and took 12lbs to win.
There are but few and far between. I've made some changes (24P, 4 blade Renagade) and lowered the motor to 3.25" PTP. Much improved hole shot with 3/4 full livewells and 250 lb. partner. Tach seems...
OK, now you have peeked my interest; "rumors"?
OK. Let's hook up in late March/early April to get this set up right.
So, would you suggest I run the 24p in colder months and 25p during summer? I hope to report back with smiles :)
I would say the powertech prop has big blades- slight cup. Not sure what water pressure is at WOT. Again, will need to confirm details when I can get back on the water.
TDT91- I'm glad that Mactlman lives close to me, too. Would be very helpful to have someone show an ol' dog how to set this rig up right. 2.5" PTP was a suggested starting point- I will measure soon...
Mactlman- Glad to hear you are close- when I saw you were in Xenia I update "my Profile" & mentioned Lake Shawnee. maybe we can hook-up sometime & help me with my set-up? I had adjusted Jack plate...
Update- mechanic ordered new starter from supplier in La. Motor has started and ran fine ever since.
tdt91 & mactlman- Correction- my original prop was a 25p Renigade- 4 blade. My current prop is 24p PowerTech #TRO4R24PCL150.
Mactlman- No Talons or Poles- 3 batteries. Motor tucked and hot foot to floor on take-off. Motor been running fine since replacing faulty starter. I was told on this forum that a good starting point...
2000 Evinrude Ficht 200HP motor, model #E200FPLSSC, serial #G04778459, on a Triton TR20. The prop I'm currently running is a 4 blade, 25p PowerTech. Running solo with empty livewells it plane out,...
jwilson48- are your 26p tempest and 26p trophy props 3 or 4 blades? Let us know how if the tempest gets you to 70+.
