    trolling motor battery placement

    I fish on candlewood lake I'm CT. they killed all the weeds and introduced grass carp. the fishing has deteriorated badly, I fish miles of shoreline and have mostly played the wind drift game, but constantly starting and stopping the outboard all summer is not ideal. I'd love it if a single 12v...

    Pontoon Hydrofoil

    my friends ranger 200c with 90 merc. does 23 with 1 or 2 people, any more than that and your doing 17 mph at 5800, a hydrofoil would help his situation tremendously. not so much with my 23l with 250. ive been researching about getting a foil or possibly getting it flashed for 335hp for some...

    Pontoon Hydrofoil

    on 2 log boats i think the benefits can be tremendous. i see very little real world experience with any of the hydrofoils on tri-toons. very little actual owner experience and feedback. when i originally heard the possiblity of 30% increase i was in, after checking out hydrofins website and...

    Pontoon Hydrofoil

    i would imagine very little benefit in speed with the hydrofin on a tri-toon w/ lifting strakes. The strakes on my 23l are quite large, cutting out sections of lifting strakes to install the hydrofins doesnt seem like a great idea, in one of hydrofins videos it looke like they cut out the last...

    Prop test data

    i would try a 4 blade solas, they are good performers and wont break the bank, you will lose 2-3 on top, but it shouldreduce your slip % greatly.

    Prop test data

    Thanks for the thoughts, Toons are squeeky clean. trial was on a reservoir and ran same speed both directions. I always run the bilge and will check for water. The lexor has a huge amount of cup and was a great performer initially. Wonder why im getting cavitation burn ?
