No regrets. Once you have fly-by-wire you will understand that the difference is night and day.

Sorry I can't help you with the length. But I know that once you have a TM, you will not have a fishing boat without one. It will be a great addition for fishing the Kennebec, especially if you fish the deeper spots. I've had mine for 3 years and I haven't touched my anchor in that time. I'm...

Are you looking for specifics for your boat or general observations regarding make /model?

Nice area! I finally got to fish in Casco Bay this summer with a friend. Do you fish or just like to cruise?

Welcome! Where abouts will you be boating?

I agree with Wart. I have a 2022 Suzuki 140BG on my 97 1800. It came with the 3 X 14 X 21 aluminum prop and the SMG4 gauge. I trailer my boat so no bottom paint, and I don’t have a T-top. Other than a trolling motor my boat is mostly original. I just touch 40 MPH at 6100 RPM and my comfy speed...

No shim needed for mine, direct mount with a SS backing plate.

Your never too old! Welcome to the party!:cool:

Its probably not "what" you were telling him. Its probably the crass attitude in your message and telling him nobody wants his boat. Just comes across as demeaning, rather than constructive. :unsure:

Pin striping and a label maker, measured from the battery box. Its on both sides of the boat and has held up great for over 2 years. Measuring is super quick and easy and the big girls get back in the water quickly.
