That makes sense about the engine hours not part of the display because it's not hooked up yet.

Correct, my mechanic referenced the adapter and the oil tank. Sounds like there's more to the NMEA 2000 that I have to do.
Thanks for the information. You bring up the N2K network with a power node and termination.....I think I have all that as well. My mechanic informed me that the wiring harness does have to be...
I'm in the process of re-powering my 1989 Stratos 201 Pro. It has had a Johnson GT 200 on it since day one, but after 31 years, I'm re-powering with a Evinrude E-Tech 225HO. I have a Garmin unit on...
Crankwv,
I'm interested in how you made your homemade Dock Stix. You have any pics of them?
Looking at purchasing a cooler like a Yeti or Artic cooler for my bass boat. My cooler on my boat doesn't hold ice even for half a day, so I was looking into adding a cooler and wanted to know if...
Guys I have a 1989 Stratos 201 and when it comes to shallow water anchors, the limited space where my batteries are located, leads me to believe I would have to go with Talons instead of PP and their...
I just looked at and all I see is Helix7....no other description; it is about 4 years old
It is a Helix 7
I had my Helix transducer attached to my TM with a stainless steel hose clamp and while getting a lure loose yesterday, I accidentally hit on the bottom and the plastic mounting bracket that the hose...
Boy are you not kidding.....2 screws very easy to reach, but the 3rd one forced me to have to disconnect the plunger cylinder of the trim unit to get it. Got the new on and new fluid and she's...
Well after checking fuses and following Jonestrollingmotor's suggestion above, it appears my trim motor is toast. It's the original motor of 1989, so I now start the search for a new trim motor to...
Found the inline fuse and it was good; I'll be digging into it a little further this weekend.
I looked for a fuse and could not locate one. Where would it be located? I also heard of someone who had a similar issue and they had wire get kinked in the gear shifter and eventually go pinched...
Thanks guys for all the detail help. I'll see what I find out.
It won't trim up or down, so I may be getting 2 new solenoids and try that first.
Thanks guys for the help
I have a 1989 Stratos 201 with a Johnson GT 200. Went out last week to the lake, boat did fine but did notice that the Trim gauge on the dash wasn't working. Went to lake today and gauge still not...
If you don't mind me asking what exactly is helicopter tape? If that picture is from your boat, it looks amazing.
I'm new to the Helix units, but I have a Helix 7 GPS unit on the bow and want to purchase another unit for my console. Is there any Humminbird unit that I can network with this Helix 7 GPS unit?...
Hey Guys,
I'm looking at adding some reverse/ backing LED lights; my 2 options are under the Tacoma or at the back end of the boat trailer. I'm just wondering if they would put off enough light...
The drill bit. Update....I did pick up a Marine Tech product from local dealer and he reassured me it will be fine. Even got the color to match.
Just an FYI on anyone that might be redoing their carpet and using the carpet trim to finish out the edges for a clean look. They provide you with black rivets for the corners. Today I was...
Update on raising seats up.......I went with the rubber disks cut with a hole saw (4.5"). I mounted them and it raised them about 2.75" roughly. After sitting them, even with rubber disks for each...
Great idea
Thanks for the feedback. They are one piece construction, so the spacer approach is what I'll be dealing with. I've heard of this starboard material before but I've never used it. I have left over...
