Mr Speeder, little late but just saw your post. I have a 1801 and my batteries (2) were in the back corner compartments and just too much weight in back. Three years ago moved my 2 to CC and also have 2 in there for the trolling motor ( 2 on left and 2 on right, balanced perfectly) . Left my...

just a thought....mine all sudden quit working and behind the horn button is a wire that had become loose...tightened and all is fine. Make sure all connections are corrosion free...had same problem with sending unit in gas tank...corroded connection and once cleaned and no crud on all...

Yesterday hooked the water up to my Yamaha 115 4s and let it run a few minutes, and afterwards noticed oil running down from prop when I cut it off....not but a few drops, but not ever happened before. A 2004 on my 1801...only 338 hours...and never had any problems. Changed lower unit oil this...

Need of a West Marine VHF 580 (model #) mounting bracket for my radio. Believe this radio is made by Uniden I believe. Bracket is 6" wide. If anyone has one willing to part with will pay ....found it on Uniden site but about 16 bucks, seems little high, but may have to pay to get one. Thanks.

Warthog5, the perko battery switch located in transom box now would have to be moved to console when relocating batteries to console?

Think an 05 Tundra has a 26 gal. tank, maby 26.5 (in manual) and mine has a 4.7 motor ( 270 something H.P.) and pulls 1801 at 60 mph and get around 12.

Got a good set up there Mike S, I just did my bottom paint this summer...makes a difference. Don't have the trim tabs. Son also has a 1800 Parker...we fish the Ches. Bay in Virgina in summer months for flounder...fall North Car. reds and speck. trout. The 18 is perfect for that type and trolling...

Mike S, also have the Riptide auto pilot with the battery charger under console and two trolling batteries. Moving the batteries up front will help because with 2 behind steering wheel and sitting still, water comes in scuppers. One person can move out behind steering wheel and step couple steps...

Warthog5, have Perko battery switch in compartment with one of the batteries now....would like to leave it where it is ...if possible.

Have a 1801 and want to move batteries from transom to console, 2 batteries. Reason being, the scuppers are under water when 2 are at or near console and water constantly coming in. Have the storage room under console and question is...can the batteries just be moved to console and then take the...

Brent, don't know the answer to these questions...but he is replacing the water/fuel separator filter and he is reading these posts you guys are sending in...he will hit on something and will let you know when we find problem...you know it must be related to one or more of the items that is...

My son has a 1800 with a Johnson/Suzuki ( understand Suzuki now owns Johnson) and on getting on plane and also while running after getting on plane, the motor skips few times and if you pull it down to idle it will run. Once you cut it off it cannot be started again for several minutes. Upon...

Twistedfish...my motor is Minn kota Riptide 70 thrust with I pilot and for the shallows and back waters it gets it done...just set it and spend your time fishing...not having to worry about which direction you are going. What is so great about the I pilot is it will put you on a spot and hold...

Just about the perfect boat for fishing shallow for drum/specks and the CBBT if you pick your days and be careful drifting between the pilings....they can mess up a good day on the bay real fast. I have a 1801 2004 model with a Yam. 115 and it is all you need IMO...anything bigger and you burn...
