A guy I know bought an NV 86, 24 volt trolling motor. It was 2.5 years old and wore the brushes out. I took it apart for him, figured what it needed and found out that if you need replacement brushes they come in a lower unit / replacement shaft kit for $79.95! All I needed was brushes that were listed as part #19 in the parts list. Newport Vessels includes them in a kit that covers every part from #14 through part #22 in numerical order and I complained. To get a few o-rings / seals, brushes, a set of shaft prop seals, a new bearing, and a new bronze bushing, it was gonna be $129, without shipping costs and without my labor to the customer! He was at over half the cost of a new motor which costs $300. He decided to buy a new one and he’s going back with Minn Kota although more expensive at time of purchase, we can replace just the brushes individually and buy parts individually from actual Minn Kota reps or there is a ton of parts available from multiple suppliers on the internet. Newport Vessels parts can only be sourced through the NV website and yes, Amazon only carries handles and propellers. I cannot find any mechanical or electrical parts anywhere else! I complained via email to NV directly and I’m waiting to see if they will sell the brushes individually outside of the ridiculous kit. Brushes for a Minn Kota run like $15(ish) and replacement parts are way cheap in comparison. I’ve also never had a set of Minn Kota brushes wear out after having some for 20 years and fishing a lot lot with them. Maybe an anomaly for the NV to go bad so quick, but the brushes were worn out on a hard angle and very uneven from front to back. My best friend just put the NV86 on our electric series tournament boat and it’s good so far, but we’ve only fished 6 tournaments with it.
@@jeffwhelanproperties I am a lifeguard and Makàpuu was not useful to me. I suppose that for bodyboarding they are perfect because of their diagonal cut.
You need tell your viewers about functionality a lot more. Also you need to edit your captions a bit better with wrong blades. You need more than 1 cleaver at the end of the day.
You'll have several types of boots from boot that protect up to the knee cap to chest waiters that protect from pounding waves on the ocean depending on what type fishing you are doing from fresh water to saltwater the type and style of boot comes to play. So as i stated in the beginning you'll have three types of boots rain boots that protect just under the knee, Hip waiters that fasten to your belt on the waist for venturing to not so deep waters and the chest waiter for that fisherman that wants better protection against the waves and then there is the professional fishermen that hunt for fish with spears and love to venture to rocks that protrude from the ocean depths to catch a fish of a lifetime using Wetsuits that protects from top to bottom.
Surprised a pair of Maui Jim’s didn’t make the list. MJs and Costas are my go to for fishing glasses. Oakley lenses have too much distortion for me. In terms of clarity, Revo is great but I just couldn’t find a pair that fit me.
