Any improvement from the update? My head turn is extremely touchy as well. Makes it hard to keep a fish on the screen if there's any wind at all. I figured I wasn't the only one.

Update: I installed the latest update, and this part is embarrassing, I set the bow offset, and my issues are gone. It's very quiet. That bow offset calibration is critical.
Not yet. I was off Thursday and Friday but I got a tip on a hot crappie bite a mile from the ramp so I fished both days and barely ran the motor. Priorities! :cool:
Thank you for the info!
Thank you for the input. I will make sure I have the latest update, get my warranty in through active captain today, and try it out again later this week. If it still seems too loud I'll make a new...
Figures. Took me 3 years to talk myself into dropping $3k on a TM and I get a dud. :doh:
Took my new Force out for the first time yesterday. Should it be this noisy? I was expecting the steering to be quieter than this. Sorry about the wind noise.

That's a great idea and I haven't thought of it. I'll try to do that this weekend.
We drew 148 and paid $20 to redraw and drew 141, So we were pretty close to you. By the time we blasted off there was a boat (or 2 or 3) on every one of our spots. We just had to go fishing and that...
People will tell you Xpress is as good as glass in rough water. That has not been my experience. And don't believe the "seat time" BS. You will either go slow and get wet or risk breaking welds and...
I have a 2006 HPDI 175 (VZ175TLR) with 78 hours on a 2005 Xpress X19. I bought it 3 years ago with 32 actual hours. The boat was owned by a 74 year old man and he never used it. 2 years ago @ 40...
Thanks for the info guys. I appreciate it!
That is what I needed to hear. I rarely use side imaging on my trolling motor anyway. I will use down imaging and 2D a lot. Thank you.
I have been using the Echomap Plus 93sv for a year or two. My Force just came in and I'm getting ready to install. I thought the Echomap Plus units were fully compatible with the Force, but now I'm...
Thank you sir.
I apologize if this has been discussed. I wasn't sure how to search it. Is there a setting to block one side of the boat when scanning docks with SI? The other side of the boat is of no interest and...
Thanks!
My buddy has a 2005 X19 with a Merc 200 EFI and a rough TR04 25P. I have a 2005 X19 with a HPDI 175. I'm running a 23P Tempest Plus. Would it be logical to try a 25P Tempest Plus on his boat or is...
I don't think anyone makes a 125 anymore but that 115 Pro XS would be awesome. I got 55.3 with my old Johnson 115. It would be a terrible financial decision to tie up all that money in a 2002 model...
I definitely love the "faster" but the X19 is a little overkill for how/where I fish. I wish I could put a 150 on that 176 Magnum. Then I wouldn't hesitate to restore it.
I also had (have) a 176 and went to an X19. I blew the motor up on the 176 Magnum, and it needed carpet and seats, so I opted for a new to me X19. I still have my 176 and have dreams of restoring it...
I might contact Triton just for the heck of it. If they would bump it up to 135 I could go to a Honda. If not I think I will sell it as is and stick with Xpress. I just love the boat and have so much...
No. It's a Triton Magnum. Basically the same hull as an Xpress.
I have a boat (no motor) I am wanting to restore. The problem is it is rated for a 125. Nobody makes a 125 and when I had a 115 on it I could only get low 50s. If I was to put a 150 on it (or a 135...
You were exactly right. Not sure how I missed it but thanks so much!
