Sorry if this has been asked before, I've got a Hummingbird Piranhamax 4 on my 20ft pontoon. I loose depth readings above 10mph. Any thoughts or advice? Would a better depthfinder work?
I know this has been discussed before, so please forgive me. I'm thinking hard about installing an electric bimini. Between up and down for a bridge and my boat lift, seems like I'm constantly going up or down. My question is do's and don'ts, installation pointers, and experience with SureShade...

Here's an update to my prop issue. I went with the recommendation of the guys from The Prop Shop in Soddy Daisy, TN. They sent me a Solas Amita 3, 13.5X15 prop. Put it on Saturday and run it. Keep in mind, it was just my wife and I, plus the big parachute up. WOT 5800rpm, top speed, 25mph...
I spoke with 2 prop shops yesterday and one of the guys is sending me a new prop, same pitch and diameter, just better quality. I will update once I try it out.
