My buddy just bought a boat(2000 Lund 1800 fish, 99 115hp Johnson) and we hooked up his new Lowrance X-27. Got power from one of the accessory switches and tried it out today and works fine. Heres the problem. With the graph on, every time you start the big motor, it kills power to the graph. Did we hook somthing up wrong? Is it some kind of a power surge or drain when you crank that motor? Any help would be appreciated.
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.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
