Just added the TST 507 to my bass boat trailer. Works great! Having had my share of flats and blow outs over the years, this is good piece of mind going down the highway!

I made a ladder out of 3/4” schedule 40 pvc and keep it within reach from the water (tied to a rear cleat) on the back deck in case i fall my stupid a** out of the boat. I fish solo 90% of the time....
I used an “angle” mount for my spare. With the angle u can mount your spare further back on trailer and still not interfere with loading or extra steps. Yet it is still easy to get to roadside. You...
To make removal easier and faster you may want to use a hair dryer or heat gun (on low) to heat as you peel. Any left over glue can be removed with 99% alcohol or other glue solvent. Goo gone works...
I have a 2002 PT-185. Bought it new. The Coast Guard plate is located on the side panel just ahead of the throttle control. It reads: MAXIMUM CAPACITIES 5 persons or 685 pounds. 1235 pounds...
I have. Site says my photos are too big. Message me a cell # and i be glad to send them to you.
I have the same boat and motor. I have the motor mounted in the 3rd hole (2up from where you are) and it runs/handles great. Actually the idiots at the dealer mounted the motor in the 4th hole when...
Thanks for info. Yes, a new Helix 7 whatever latest generation is. The specs shows it uses 83/200 along with the other freqs so instead of assuming a 9 20 T would work, I figured i better ask first.
Will the HB Helix 7 accept the standard 2D dual beam 83/200 transducer (
XNT 9 20 T)? Not interested in SI or DI just want the bigger Helix 7 screen.
Using a Helix 5 now and want to upgrade to the...
Good advice!
We ditched the motor bar years ago and also went with the MOTORMATE. Hassle free and rock solid.

This a good source. I like the WesBar products.
Lol,,,it only goes 6 miles to the dump so maybe they will!
We have Goodyear Endurance tires on our boat trailers but we needed 2 new tires for my OLD UTILITY TRAILER we use to haul trash (Marathons were 16 years old) so I go on WalMart.com and order 2...
Lots of talk about Tracker boats and all. My experience has been simple:
Bought a new 2002 PT185 w/90 Merc and galvanized tracker trailer. Still have it 18 years later. No issues with the boat or...
I bought a new 2002 PT185 / Merc 90 2 stroke. I used the supplied transom saver bar for years. I have been using the Motormate for the last 3-4 years. Love that thing! After 18 years of use the...
Congrats on your new boat!
Dang, $110 per hour?
I see you put Talquin in your location. Extended warranty a good idea! :thumb up2:
I read somewhere they both fit a 5.0” rim so I am guessing:::yes

Power King 215/14 at 50 psi. Load range C 6 ply. 5 years old. 20 miles from home at 60 mph. No warning at all,,,BANG! They don’t call em “China bombs” for nothing!
Learned my lesson...
I am currently running Power King Chinese tires. They are ok I guess. Load range C, 6 ply. I will also be replacing tires soon and I think I will go with Carlise 8 ply load range D in 185/13. Is...
UPDATE!
I was able to locate a used Solas 4 blade aluminum in 12.5x19 but not the 21”. So i bolted it on and went for test run. 19” ain’t doing it! RPM increased to 5800-5900 WOT with some trim. ...
Interesting. Thanks.
At what RPM? Did it go down much? Stay the same? What the WOT range for a 90 Opti?
Before i order a new prop I would like to know if anybody already running the one I want. So I don’t waste money
guessing! :thumb up2:
I have a 2002 Tracker Pro Team 185 with the Mercury 90...
