Mark Jonas yes I have and I gave them to two of my fishing buddies as well to try out. They’re testing them out right now. Sorry I’m lacking on the follow up report. So far I really like them! I’m trying to find something I don’t like about them. My father in law liked it the one so much he wants one for Christmas.

Fish with BLat once then you start catching fish like he catches. Nice one!

For me, I’ll take a plate of homemade stuffing with gravy.

What is everyone’s favorite side and dessert on Thanksgiving?

That’s a great setup! I see a downfall to having a deep V boat vs a bass boat is the battery compartment. I have too for just 1 starting battery in back and 2 trolling batteries up front.

Hey Jayden, this is the one I went with. I don’t have a big battery storage area so I couldn’t go with two regular size in parallel with each other. So I went with the biggest size I could. Even though it melted the regulator, I had plenty of power to run graphs and livewll all day long.

Brian Latimer as long as your using a modern Mercury 4 stroke you will be fine. Mercury upgraded the regulator in recent years and now prefer the AGM battery for the 4 stroke. I didn’t know any of this either, but my mechanic guy gave me a master class the other day.

So hopefully I can help someone else from making the same mistake. I added a couple graphs to my bow and wanted a bigger starting battery to handle it all. Current one wasn’t cutting it. I went with a bigger AGM battery which I didn’t know, older 2 stroke Mercurys can’t handle it. Mine is a 2004. It ended up melting the altinator regulator. The new Mercury 4 strokes don’t have this issue. Found this out while my boat was getting winterized.
