If I was to buy a new camera I would get a Marcum VS625SD or the VS825SD. these would be a camera for in the fish house. I would get the marcum because they have the best track record with underwater cameras. If I was running and gunning the I would look at getting the new Aqua View micro. the size is why I would get that for running and gunning. one thing I forgot about the marcums is they come with a camera panner now that allows you to rotate the camera 360 degrees at the touch of a button(remote controlled).

I have owned both Aqua Views and the Marcum Camera and have friends who have the C Store brand. Without a doubt, the best clarity is in the Marcum. Not sure what other features you are looking to have as big attributes, but take advantage of the Marcum offer for the panner. a key fab remote and you can have eyes on the back of your head and under the ice!

The one I hope santa brings me is the Aqua-Vu 760cz. Suppose to be one of the best camera on the market. Has a camera with a zoom! Anyone have one yet?

Just picked up a cheap aqua vu scout on a-sales-site. Clarity is near perfection... In my living room at least haha! Looking forward to watching some entertaiing under water world when they aren't biting. Will report back in usability for those that don't have an extra $400-500 laying around. Jealous of those that do...

I gave my scout away after buying a Marcum, takes almost gin clear water to be able to see halfway decent....At sunset or a little before, put it away, those only have a 4.5ah battery to ( or at least mine did) and only good for 4 hours max so carry a spare 7ah....

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
