Problem: Trim Gauge Flucuating: At times the trim gauge will read accurately from all the way down trim to full up trim (on the gauge this would be like a fuel gauge reading empty to 3/4 full) The gauge has never read all the way up (or full, if you will). This excludes being or going to the...

Can I use a 24 volt 50 amp circuit breaker on a 36 volt system? Installing an MK Uterra 112 ft lb. I read that the voltage diff wont matter, others say that it does. MK recommends a 60 amp CB. I previously had a 24 volt terrova and haven't had any problems with the CB tripping. Also the 36 volt...
Sony cdx m20. At higher volumes, unit will shut down then power back up, and unless volume turned downed, it will shut down again and repeat. This only happens when it is hot outside or played at a higher volume. Is this a normal safety feature? because the back of the unit is SUPER HOT...

Sometimes gauge reads accurately...meaning when drive is down, the gauge reads in the "down" position. Other times the gauge will read at the "quarter mark" when the drive is in the down position...only utilizing a portion of the gauge. Its almost like it reads two different settings when...
Is it normal to have oil pressure readings of 80 while running at or near WOT (4K +)? Midrange cruising speeds reads 60ish. Engine runs smooth, temp reading is 170-175ish, which imo normal. Oil dipstick is within the OK range.

I'm requesting from someone with same boat, if they could make out of paper or trace a pattern with dimensions of their aft sundeck cushion/foam and cover so I could get my local canvas/cushion shop to make one. More than willing to prepay for the pattern materials and shipping costs that are...
IBoaters's......had some spare time and typed up a template for recording prop testing results. I realize it gives general info, and could be edited, (the portion about the tabs is for my use for I have smart tabs). May save some writing time and would imagine could be copied and tailored to...
