Just remember that it does not use actual GPS but rather cell tower signals so it will not be as accurate. For the price how can you beat it. Barry I don't think this is correct. At least with my iphone version it uses the GPS reciever in the cell phone. I've been 10 miles out in the middle of lake...

Just thought i would add one thing i found in my boat this week. If the sentry system is turned on "for dual power" my generator will not start, have to have this turned off to start the generator.

Not sure if its the same on your end but maybe a quick check.

Anti-siphon valves are right at the tank where your hose is fastened to. It will look like a regular fitting. If you suspect the vent, simply remove the gas fill cap and it will vent the tank. Before going with another carb, the good thing about having twins is that you have 2 of everything. Swap t...

Antenna selection has a lot to do with how you use your boat. The taller the antenna the farther the radio can transmit. If you stay in the bay you would not need a real tall antenna, 5'-8'. I'm in Lake Erie OH, and I have an 18' antenna which should allow for a 10 mile transmission. Here is a good ...
