Good information, thanks. I have Raymarine and would like to install the dash-T unit, but I have questions if you don't mind. If you're manually steering is there any added force over the OEM steering required to steer? When the pilot is engaged is it noisy? When on autopilot and you need to grab the wheel is it instant enough to take control back? Thanks...

Very good illustration of assembling these plugs

Need to do this to my boat. Thanks for the how too.

Good info. I have the S drive at the helm of my houseboat so I added the Garmin reactor 40. It's awesome for cruising long distances

Have you ever been on a Gill net boat before? Do you understand what mesh size is and why there’s regulations on it? You can only catch mature fish in 3.5”-4” mesh gill nets. That’s 4-5 year old fish that have spawned at least 4 times. I feel bad you’re uneducated enough not to understand something that “you don’t like”. Another closed minded old man. Where is your sources for the new decent decree. If you’re holding in your hand talking about it you’re supposed to source it somewhere on this video. I don’t see it anywhere

POOR audio, buried in NOISE. AMATEUR production.

Having real difficulty with securing the caps they don’t seem to want to fit

Just wondering if you are going to put out a video of updates on your Starcraft boat builds, or Mercuiser 165s. Hadn't seen anything for a while. Working on an early '70s Islander myself.

You obviously do not know how many dollars we put into the trout planting program

Wish i had you as a neighbor and friend.

Picked up the same boat in a 1976. Very similar.

doing a 1976 chieftain 25 mark4 this winter.

Thanks that was good

That was excellent….thank you

Thanks, Captain Karl! I can't wait to get out on the bay fishing with you guys.

Seems like a lot of trap nets out there this year

Thanks so much for your video, I installed mine in the ground and lifted it on w 4 friends then did my final drilling. Your way is better, oh well. Was also going to run my wiring through the tubing but your point about future accessability is a perfect reason to run them in plastic expandable conduit. I’d rather conceal them but you have a great point. Thanks again.

MR Cal ., Can u please let me know how to remove antenna with rotary joint of RD 218?

thank you so much for this Video, very informative. I have a twin mercruiser bravo 2 power assited, dual helm boat. It would be very hard to use the octopus type r due to lack of room. but i do have room on the upper helm for the type s stlye. Do you think this style would work on my boat? thank you again

You are a historian and gentleman Manager Karl.

From the wheel real one who isn't incompetent👇🖕👎🖕

Native Americans did not introduce any Salmon into the great lakes. This was all on the game fisherman buying licenses for the money to do so. Before Salmon all that was gill netted was White fish a few others. I want to know who and what destroyed the great lakes fishery?

One things for certain I want Our Native Sons to have first Grab at these type of resources for they have shown a better respect for its value

amazing technique I'm waiting for the next video

So glad to see this

What's this? A sharp new shirt!

Came across from AuGres on July2. Straight off Sand Pt. in 19 to 21 feet of water. Used anti-freeze, HiC orange color and Wonder Bread crawler harnesses blades. Landed 20 fish with 5 guys on my boat in about 4 hours. Had a triple and two doubles. Many nice walleyes. Only 3 fish we had to measure. Next day only 4 walleyes and a giant sheephead. Best of of luck and thanks for the fishing reports Capt. Karl.

Question 25 years ago I was doing alot of shipwreck diving out of grindstone city on the way out I would always run past a large group of boats fishing somewhere between 6 or 8 miles out. Is there a reef out that way in lake huron

Why wasn’t the bow cap stripped of the paint too?!

We did really well Wednesday, the best weather I've seen in a while.. 2 person limit, few 22-23 inchers, rest was 15-20..

Can't wait to go fishing with you guys in a few weeks

Thanks again for a great trip Karl!!!

Great video man!! Some interesting information there!! I also like making fishing videos and really liked your content!! Liked and subscribed!! 🤝🤝

I wanna go fishing!

Whoop whoop!!! We’ve been going outside Linwood smoking them they moved out about a mile from our 2 mile marker

Glad to see your back

Put the same arch but the jr uni on my proline 210 wa couple weeks back with a furuno drs4w radar. I like the jr better it’s a little shorter and easier for a normal height guy like me 5’9” to reach the rods

Ready for some more of your videos

Wow, I did a quick search because I have to fix my rollers... Nice to see you, nice boat! Beautiful garage sir!! haha

Won't be long and we will have or boats on the bay

Nothing like saving money 💰!!!

You better get out there and get that boat ready 😊

Great video, keep ' em coming Capt Karl!

Jack of all trades you maybe, a toolmaker you ain't! Lol

Your making good progress

Good stuff. Thank you!!

You need to use longer bolts when mounting the arch to the gunnel. Lol

Put the same arch on my islander. Radar,all around light and 2 flood lights. I did run the wires in the tube tho. Good video

Looking forward to the radar arch video. Just installed one on my islander

Great work!
