    Hello Gary! I like that.....break out another thousand. My definition is this...Boat, a hole in the water surrounded by wood, plastic, or metal into which one pours money. Love your videos

      Hey Glenn great to hear from you. Unfortunately we had the worst blueberry harvest ever lol Now that it’s over it’s so darn hot it’s hard to get motivated to go fishing lol Especially when thing’s always need fixing.

      You will have to look up the part number that goes with that particular engine. I think most of the older engines have something similar. Thank you for the comment 👍

    I charge my battery every time i head out, but on the water it was shows 11.4-12v. The battery is 4yrs old. Could it be the same issue with urs? Cheers.

    • @CATCHAHAWG
      @CATCHAHAWG  6 місяців тому +1

      @@Cparker8 might just be the age of the battery. I used to never have to charge my cranking battery but it seems like the newer ones just don’t last as long as they used to. I rarely get much more than a year out of mine these days.

      @Cparker8 6 місяців тому +1

      @CATCHAHAWG Wow 1 year? That's crazy. The battery indicator on mine is showing 'recharge battery' even though I already have. Also I don't recharge it straight after use but instead the next time right before i head out again. Probably not good right?

    • @CATCHAHAWG
      @CATCHAHAWG  6 місяців тому +1

      @@Cparker8 I’m guessing it’s the age of your battery that’s causing the voltage to be low. If you check the voltage while the engine is running it will tell you if it’s charging. Mine is around 14v when running.
