My boat is rated for a 175 but I ordered it with a 150. I just couldn't justify the extra $6K for 25 horsepower and 3-4 mph. I figured that if I ever wanted to max out the horsepower I will just get...
Not a problem! I didn't think the 1.5" extension would be enough too. But with my setup I don't see any interference from the sponsons. I just have a line on the left side imaging from the bottom of...
You'll have to get the 1.5" extension for the L bracket so you don't get interference from the sponsons. It's an easy install. You'll have to drill and tap a couple of holes in the side plate on your...
While you're passing through East Tennessee check out Lost Sea Adventures in Sweetwater. Definitely the Tennessee Aquarium and their Tennessee River Gorge Explorer tour. If you have time, get off the...
Amen!
Be careful if you get one of these lock combos. Make sure that the coupler lock will fit trailers up to 3". I got a Reese coupler lock just like the one pictured. It was advertised to fit up to a 2...
The mechanic at my local Yamaha dealer told me to either run 87 octane gas with ringfree or 93 octane without ringfree. He says that the higher octane gas will burn slower & hotter than regular,...
Congrats on the trade! I have a TZX190 with the 150 hpdi. I'm seeing 56-58 mph depending on temperature with absolutely no setup, and great holeshot. I was most impressed with the ride and stability...
I have 3 Quantums (2 Codes and an older KVD) that I still use to flip & pitch with that have the flipping switch. I don't recall ever using the switch.
Thanks! We'll give them a try.
Download the TVA reservoir info app or go online to find out if and when the dams are running the turbines and making current. It's just about as valuable as your electronics on the Tennessee.
I'm not a deep water guy either. That's what makes Douglas a challenge to me. It's definitely not like any of the Tennessee river lakes that I'm used to. I'm just looking at it as an opportunity to...
As far as ledge fishing on Watts Bar, your best area for that will be up the Tennessee river arm of the lake between Kingston & the I-75 bridge. I'm not a deep water expert by any means, but I catch...
We are going on vacation the week of June 22. Instead of hitting the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge tourist traps, we are staying in Dandridge so the wife & daughter can still do their shopping and me & my...
Yes, they have been working on the second reactor for a few years now. They say that it should be online buy the end of the summer, but who knows with government work. TVA was like 15+ years behind...
I live about 45 minutes from the Green Cove motel. I stayed there once back in the late 90s while trout fishing, thinking I could beat the crowd to the river the next morning. It was pretty bad back...
Ladd's is just north of Kingston, just past the Food City grocery store. The boat ramp is on the left.
Like somebody else said, run up the Tennessee river arm of the lake above Kingston toward Loud on. There won't be many of the tournament boats run up there. If TVA is running current through Ft....
There are several good outfitters that do rafting tours on the Ocoee River. I think Ocoee Adventures was who our church uses for youth trips every summer. You can do a search for "Ocoee Rafting...
The first thing I did when I got my boat was put another stainless steel nut on all of the jackplate and engine bolts with some loctite on them to act as a jam nut. Did the same to my last boat and...
When I bought my TZX190, I ordered it with a 70 Maxxum. The dealer was out of the Maxxum and had to order it for me. When I picked the boat up the next week the TM was still on backorder, so they...
Pro-rule and Gator Grip will custom laser etch anything you want onto their bump boards. I don't know if either of them will fit your flush mount, but it's an option for you to check out.
There's a lot of install pics for Skeeter's in the Hummingbird forum up top in install and rigging tips. Like mentioned above, I have a thru hull for 2d and on plane readings and I mounted my SI...
Check with C&O Marine, they're a board sponsor. They sell the flush mount tool holders for Ranger. All you'd have to do is cut the holes in your deck to match up with the tool holder, then screw it...
+1. You can get the SI GPS model for less than $500 if you shop around, and the wider screen is a lot better for side imaging than other small units.
