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
watersNfairways
I have read all the posts on the flashers with much interest. I have been using a Zercom LCF-40 for years. I love the functionality of it. It reads fish, structure, and lures great. The problem is the interference and no color, so I started thinking about a new unit. I am fortunate enough to live next door to someone in fishing retail. Last week, I sat on the ice with a LX-3, FL-18, Lowrance x67 Ice-machine, and my old unit. They are all good pieces of equipment. My question is what is the fascination with LED flashers? I personally believe the LCD displays are much better. I have fished with my father-in-law for years. He has an FL-8. The resolution and clarity of LCD displays just seem to offer more than traditional LED displays and a lot quieter. I am currently testing the Lowrance for about a month. I really like it. It has zoom, adjustable zoom, multi-color, and other extras. It also has multiple functions for soft water (I also need a new unit for the boat). Unfortunately, it does not have an interference function. This is the only negative I can find with the x67. I did experience some interference this weekend. It would wig out, but it always would seem to relocate itself. I have heard and read a couple of comments on the x67. LCD freezing: I have never had trouble with my LCD in the cold, and I have heard second hand a couple of times that they have tested the x67 in Canada in extreme cold. Size of the screen: it is small, but it is very easy to see and view. I am fortunate enough to have good eyes though. Many of you are saying Marcum is coming and coming fast Are all those watts on the lake going to screw everything up? To follow that up, my neighbor sold around 20 Vexilars, 8-9 Lowrances, and 2 Marcums this weekend at the St. Paul show. I am not sure what that tells me. I did like the Marcum second to the x67. My second question, anyone else testing the Lowrance and experiencing interference. My third question, should I just wait for Lowrance to fix the interference for next year, take another look at the LED flashers, or start looking into a camera?
This $400 bucks must really be burning a hole in my pocket.
