My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.

As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that. If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh… -

I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything... -
Congrats on the motor! I think you’ll like it. I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers. 160 degrees is more than I expected to hear. Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor. Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this. -
You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away. -

Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.

Question
maxx rpm
My wife's co-worker just plunked down 26K for a new boat. It came with a few round rub marks on the side, down to the hull in a couple spots. No big deal, they are getting paint and he has to bring it in to a paint shop to get it touched up. He took the boat out and saw that the graph worked great until higher speeds, and went blank. Upon looking he saw that the trans was located inline with a rib. He thought maybe lower it, but was bottomed out in the slots already. He is really upset about having to bore two more holes in his new boat. I would have advised him to have a board installed on the transom so that there will always only be two holes back there. Seems like when you get a new graph the mount is not always the same, and more holes have to go in.
My advice is, that anyone looking into a different or new boat, to ask for a second opinion. I am sure that someone here wouldn't mind looking at a boat and giving some opinion before you write a check. I know that my eyes get pretty big when i am shopping, and not always focused on the little but important details. Good Luck!
