We are all about South Texas Outdoors. We fish for fresh water fish in the San Antonio area, lakes such as Canyon Lake and Calaveras Lake. We also fish the saltwater down in Rockport, Port Aransas, Corpus Christi areas as well and Padre Island National Seashore. We like to fish for everything from Catfish and Crappie, to Speckled Trout and Red fish.
We also enjoy cooking on smokers, grills and our griddle. We enjoy cooking what we catch. We also enjoy hunting in Texas for deer and we hope to get in some hunts for turkey and small game.
If you enjoy the water, fishing, hunting and cooking, you'll find something on our channel that you will enjoy. Please check out the videos, give us a thumbs up, and subscribe. If there are any videos you really like, feel free to share them. If you have any ideas for videos you would like to see just let me know.
I'm really impressed. This is a project I am dredging. 32ft carver. Tabs aren't moving at all. I did puck up couple tips, thanks brother, Also a word that I use all the time but hear almost never, had a giggle, Dinero, 😆
That's a really convenient after market part. You being super mechanic could jump up on the tailgate but you're making us feel better about us being old and you being in the same shape as we are, although super mechanic being a superhero doesn't need assistance. We'll done young man.
Awesome Video I have the EIC 5000 Bennett with light indicator controller that’s been giving me fits blinking and not calibrating etc. after seeing your setup I’m sure I can grab the correct harness and replace my helm control with just a standard port/stbd switch like yours . Thanks for taking the time to make this video very educational.
First, to comment? No way! Good info here! A good addition. I have a step on my Sierra, and it's super handy! Nice that you can add an after-market one.
finally, the video I’ve been wanting to see. Thank you so much now I have an idea what I need to do for my boat. God bless you. The Amazon link for the bleeder kit is not working. Do you have the name of the brand that you bought?
Such great info... and I appreciate that you include the "ooops" moment as well as the montage! I envy your skills sir, thank you for taking the time to share it!
The best mechanic in Texas showing there's nothing he can't fix. When those wires learned who was gonna be working on them they were so scared they fixed themselves. 😂 You are the man
You don't need cell service to use an iPad or other tablet type device. Whatever device you do use does need to have GPS. I use an iPad and a Samsung tablet. The tablet only has GPS. It cost me $126 at Best Buy. It doesn't need a data plan just GPS. I use my iPad for my wireless Faruno radar and the Samsung tablet for Navionics.
Yes you could, but the motor will not be charging both batteries, only the one selected. Let say you have it on battery one, go out fishing, maybe anchor up, have radio on, graph, possibly lights. Time to leave and the battery is too drained to start the motor. At the least you have to go back and manually change the switch, and at worst you find that the second battery is dead because it has not been getting any charge. Once installed, this system is basically plug and play, if for some reason the start battery is low, it will automatically use the house battery.
@AJOutdoors1 ok, I ask because I was under the impression that with the motor on and the switch on 1&2, it will charge both batteries. Then, when the motor is off, put the switch on the house battery only. Then, even starting battery, can't die. Also, in the worst case, both are dead or very weak. You can put switch on 1&2 in hopes both batteries together will start engine. On a side note, do you have a video or know how to find schematics to wire two engines with two starting batteries and a house battery?
@@matthewkahrs8164 So this was on my previous boat with 1 motor. But now I have a 28ft Grady White with twin 225s. It uses three batteries, one only starts the port side engine, the other two are wired in parallel and start the starboard motor and power the house (everything else). This setup uses 2 battery switches (one for each set) but you can still put them both in 1&2 if power is too low in one side. So, what exactly would you like to see? I can get you pictures.
@AJOutdoors1 What you have, twin 200s, two 4 position switches, three batteries total. Wire it so each engine is charging their own start battery but also both engines are charging the same large house battery.
This is bad information. A glass full of ice and water gets down to about 40 degrees. If you freeze the prob in the ice and come back to it the next day, that will be 32 degrees. Traeger needs to get their numbers right.
i installed this yester day and i get electricity to both house and engine but i dont get any led signal on the acr, i have the small ground to a fuse box that is on the house side is that not correct? should i pull the ground with fuse to the start battery instead?
I have about 10 pairs of these glasses, different styles I liked. I did not know they have different sizes. When I found out, I reached out, just on a whim to see about exchanging my standard sizes for smaller ones. 138mm front bridge compared to 145mm. Longer temple length also. I sent 3 standard size back and got the small. Absolutely fantastic customer service. No questions. I will support them over anyone else. Simply the best.
Never mind. Just figured out you can use a punch to gently push in the fitting until they lock open and drain. After drained, you press open the fitting rings as if to install onto bleeder and it will close back up the fittings.
Awesome video! I will install this in summer. Didn’t get one thing, do you have to put the ignition on to start the lamps? I thought that was the whole thing when I turn the motor of that I can use the hose battery
Thanks for this video! I bought and used this kit on my baystar. I didn't know when the motor stopped all the way the steering stopped. Before I could keep spinning the wheel after the motor stops. Also, my steering is tighter and more responsive!
