I found some HDS 10 Gen 1’s new in the box for $1400.00.
Is this a good deal or should i hold out for a Gen
Can you use down scan on a Gen 1?
That’s a good deal, and yes you can have down scan on the Gen 1. I have 2 10’s and a 8 with down/side scan in my boat and I have no complaints. This “old” technology is still better than what 95% of guys have in their boat.

I have had several types…richter, bell, navy…best for any water is the water spike. Comes loose easily and can be taken apart.
I agree,the water spike is the best all around anchor.

So the cost of basement thread got we wondering. How is a new build cost effective? Considering I had to insure my house for $130/sq finished (which equals $347,000) yet I just had it appraised and sold for $237,200. It seems to me a person could easily be at least $50,000 – $100,000 under water the second a person takes possession of the new build.
Not sure what insurance costs have to do with building costs. I built my home in 2010,small house , just over 1000 square ft and my insurance is just over $300.00 a year,good deal I think. As far as being in the red or the black when building,I am a carpenter and did the bulk of the work myself,minus the usual subs.When I closed the construction loan I had $60,000.00 in equity, day one! So I guess that’s how its cost effective,sweat equity.

The larger the number the larger the battery is, and the longer the run time will be. Go with the biggest battery that will fit.

morally wrong … disrespectful … ya I’d agree in MOST cases; but in MN it is NOT “unlawful trespass”
the one time when I think it’s not wrong is when wading and fishing in say knee deep to hip deep water
then to climb over the dock where you best are able AND continue on your way is certainly reasonable
much more reasonable than it would be for the property owner to expect the fisherman to SWIM out around the end of the dock
I agree. 
I guess I cant speak for Minnesota but it is Criminal Trespass in SD and I think even if there is no law against it in Mn,to be on another persons dock is wrong,just plain dissrespectful. I think many lakeshore property owners are incorrect by having huge docks just as I think many fishermen are incorrect by thinking all property owners are bad. I happen to be both a fisherman and a property owner and if someone ask to use my dock to fish I have and will say yes. I think respect is the key from all parties.
Quote:
yes, you can step (or climb) from the water onto any portion of a dock that is above the surface of public water.
a lot of dock owners aren’t gonna like this, but it’s legal to step out of a boat onto the dock and stand there too
no different than climbing into a deerstand that’s on public land
Incorrect. A dock is private property just like a boat.

Hmmmm. That’s an interesting one.
Since the 24 volt system is two 12 volt batteries wired together in series to achieve 24 volts, you can’t just connect your starter wires to the terminals of your 24 volt array or you’d be pushing 24 volts to a 12 volt starter.
Maybe someone has an elegant pre-packaged solution that allows you to isolate 12 volts just to the starter? I’ve never heard of this, but like everything else, it may have already been thought of.
For 12 volts in a 24 volt system use the positive and negative from the same battery to get 12 volts it does not matter how they are wired.
You should always use the battery that has the negative lead of the trolling motor going to it. If you use the other battery and you have one of your 12 volt accessories accidently ground out to the boat (tin boats) you will now get 24 volts to your 12 volt accessory and you better hope your fuse is quick enough to pop.
This is correct and it does not matter if the boat is tin or glass you will get 24 volts out of the battery that has its negative terminal connected to the other batteries positive terminal.
Wusthof. Best knives period.Spendy but worth it.
when pitching jigs I always tie direct with fireline. I’m pitching rocky shorelines for early walleyes, typicaly 1/8 or less and the fireline gives me more feel,having said that I lose a bunch of jigs due to the rocks.
most winchs come with the in/out switch that is usually mounted on the handle, they also come with that outlet with a remote on a 6-8 ft cord.
without a pic I am guessing Its an outlet for the winch remote. Is it about the size of a 12 volt cig lighter? If so thats what it most likely is.

I read that story and said to myself, “I probably have some money to throw towards some new batteries”. I’m not saying I have 120 bucks but I know I have $5 or $10 to help this guy get his mobility back! Anybody else want to get on board? We could get some money together or just mail it individually.
If enough join in, “ICENUTZ” can let us know where to send it. I’m in for $10.00.
I’m in for $10.00 also,lets do something positive for a change!
My friends dad has a set, and no its not even close to guide wear, I think he got his for free when he bought his boat. If thats the case its decent raingear but if you have to buy it I would go with guide wear.
I would get the 60″, I’ve had the 60″ shaft on all my boats from a 1990 16′ Competitor to my current 2005 620.
If you qualify for it check out USAA, I’ve been with them for over 10 years,had other companies offer quotes and none have come close.

1st part of every month the balance is added and the spending is mostly used up early in the month. That is why you are seeing it so common today.
You really should think twice about getting upset about someone having the EBT card. When you need some help you will cry that you deserve it. I know plenty of working people who just plain do not earn enough money.
I would bet money there are a number of people reading this that do use EBT.
I sure hope there isnt anyone reading this who is on assistance because if you can afford to have internet access you dont deserve assistance.
Not true – you are eligible for a minimum amount of text and cell phone usage under a plan that I heard about on the radio today.
I am sure there is a plan for internet and computers. There has to be –

I agree with helping people who need it,but, In my opinion, help includes; food water and shelter, not extras such as cell phones and internet,but thats just my opinion
