Just had a jackplate installed and I replaced all the switches in the console..first trip out since.and now the tachometer shows me at 9000 rpm at WOT. Lol. I have a vessel view mobile so actual rpm...
unfortunately that is not a strong point for me.
i replaces switches and now trying to figure out how to wire them. Yes, i took a couple of photos but they are not totally clear. i saw that i have a wiring diagram under the back lid. so i thought...
Is it possible to calibrate the trim gauge? The needle seems to be off by a quite a bit. Everything functions, just annoyed the gauge is wrong.
Haven't run the boat since I added the jackplate. Hope to do that tomorrow. Just wanting to get to recommended max rpm range. And get a bit of bow lift. Since the bow is heavy and the stern is light....
If you had 5800 rpm using a 21 pitch, would you assume the rpms would be less if using a 23 pitch? I thought the larger the pitch the slower the prop spins. Is this correct?
I have a 2016 z518 and it has the round latching switches made by Oslo. They get stuck. I have noticed the switch mechanism is fine, the cap is what gets stuck. Has anyone found a way to get these...
Below is the Mercury recommendation of changing from a Rev4 or Fury prop to a Bravo 1 fs. Was wondering if it is actually true, the RPM should be the same with increasing 2 inch pitch.
Anyone...
Do you run the jackplate low or high to get top speed?
I have just added a jackplate to my 2016 Z518 with a 150 fourstroke (not the proxs version). For those with the same setup, what prop are you using and what is your elevation? I am guessing a...
I saw a walk thru of the z520R and the bins behind the seats and in front of the console look to have mats in them . does anyone know if they will fit older boats?
Thanks. Great info. I odered a jackplate.
I am just trying to get back to the speed before the lithiums and dual graphs.
@jps. What is the exact model of the 21p solas? I am seeing a few versions.
And thanks for the great detailed response! Gives me hope. :)
I don't have the proxs . Just the 4 stroke. And I ordered a jack plate this morning. So we will see if that helps . Next is a tempest plus prop or a Razor prop from Croxton.
21p around 5200 rpms max.
it absolutley came with a rev 4! i purchased a brand new 2014 Z118C which is the exact same boat as the 2016 Z518. And it came with a Rev4 from the factory. I asked the guy I purchased the 2016 from...
I purchased a new to me 2016 Z518 w/150 4stroke. Has a 36v trolling motor, helix 9 and garmin 12" graph with panaoptics at the bow, panoptics mounted to trolling motor. no jack plate. With lithium...
it just seemed like a lot. but it is probably correct.
I recently got lithium batteries. Using a 125ah starting batter. Went out on the water using only 2- humminbird helix 9 graphs. And started the motor a few times. The battery indicates it has 78%...
I would love a ranger cover. Didn't know I could buy one
.
I bought a used 2016 z518 which did not include the travel cover. Anyone recommend an aftermarket travel cover?
do you have pics of the completed panel? And how did it work out?
ah. i googled it (probly my first problem), and it returned an article saying the 24 draw was 30 amp, and the ultrex was 38 amp. And then i just now found this great article which confirm what CatFan...
Got a new to me boat. thinking about lithium batteries. Has a 36 volt Ultrex. was wondering if anyone is using 50ah batteries with a 36v ultrex and how is the performance? previous boat had a 24v...
Well..just found that they don't share map cards.
