Ahh okay, so that explains why it would be on both SI and DI. I thought that would be it too, but I can't see that being the case as the transducer is well below the bottom of the jackplate..

Yes sir I did. I tried both in different combinations while scanning a big tree stickup. Once I got it to go away, so did the tree/stickup LOL.
The pics are running the motor. Issue persist with or...
No sir, It started when I picked up the Helix 12, relocated the 7 to the bow, added the transducer extension and network cables. I moved the SI transducer from the starboard over to the port,...
Alright, I've racked my brain, read, re-rigged, troubleshot and still end up in my driveway saying things that'd make a sailor blush. I'm at a loss and need some help. Going to try and give all of...
Haven't been on here in a while, things have been hectic and fighting the bassboat blues. Planned to repower this winter, but Looks like I'll be getting ready to list my fully restored '01 518 in the...
So, about a year ago I picked up a nice 2001 Ranger 518VX that was structurally in good shape, good paint and gel coat and with a crappy, but running motor. Fished it until I sold the motor and then...
Yep. Love it.
BBQ all through the hill country. Cooper's in Mason I believe, Hard 8 in Brady if I'm remembering right.
I'm sort of in the same situation as you. The Skeeter has my boat out of those three for sure. Also, check out the BassCat Margay and Sabre in the Vision series. and for just a bit more, you could...
You can purchase from Ranger over the phone. I got one for my 2001.
Ive lost more sleep than I care to admit battling this same thing. I planned to from day one, but having a real tough time deciding. Be smart but dont overthink it.

As far as your panels go you can get you a small, round momentary switch to hook your horn to, terminate the ends of your Acc. Switches (if you don’t have anything hooked to them) and squeeze all the...
Glad you got some pictures, I memorized mine and couldn’t forget if I tried to haha. I’ll be following along with this thread and your progress. Good luck. You’re gonna love it! I recently finished...
I'm getting ready to repower my 01 518. Having a real hard time biting that bullet though.
Not starting a brand debate or an overall 2 v. 4stroke debate. Just looking for input and/or comparisons between 2 stroke and 4 stroke outboards and how they’ll handle being stored and used in my...
Finally made up my mind and decided to keep the boat and repower with something I can trust.
It feels good to see that anchor on a pallet. Besides, this ol' girl didn't need that kind of negativity...

I'm running a 200hp Ficht motor. If this thing blows and I can't repair it myself, I'm parting it out and repowering. (If I don't sell the boat first)
If and when it comes time to re-power, I'm strongly considering buying a blown motor to have re-built due to budget and it going on a 17 y/o boat..
Going on a Ranger 518VX
150-200 max hp

01 518VX- Currently has a 200hp motor. If/When I repower, I'd like to know how small is 'too small' in regard to HP?
Any input is appreciated.
Getting ready to sell mine for a warranty and that new boat smell. But.. I'm not going to break the rules of the "what's my boat worth" thread, but I could really use unbiased and honest input on...
They're definitely out there. Just be patient. one might come available in that very price range soon. I'm hoping in the next week LOL.
Alright, I've been thinking about this for a few days now. I know nothing about the business and have never bought a brand new boat, but I'll weigh in because I'm currently boat shopping for a brand...
I read somewhere on here that ironing them down works really well.
