    Replacing Transducer bracket

    I have a Trophy 1802 walkaround. The transducer bracket to my Garmin 160 fishfinder broke. I have a new bracket but my boat is in the water. Can I get a way with swapping the bracket with it in the water or am I going to have to get the boat out of the water? The next time the boat comes out...

    Transducer guard

    I boat in the Delaware and broke my second transom mount transducer bracket. I'm using a Garmin 160 and a 160c. I saw this on the net but didn't know if it would affect the performance of the transducer. I also wondered why there weren't more people selling similar products. Thanks Tom...

    Premium vs High performance

    I am changing the lower gear oil in my 2002 125hp outboard. The book calls for premium oil but the marina only carried High Performance. They said as long as I was draining the old out I could use the High Performance. They said that it might even run better. That part I wasn't buying but...
