lfgray started the topic 23 bobcat location for in hull transducer in the forum Bass Cat Boats

Looking to put a in- hull transducer in and was needing a place with the smoothest water. I’m thinking in front of and in line with the drain plug. that area on the underside is the concave area of the pad. Is this going to be the best place for smooth water(no bubbles as you are running on pad.) Thanks for any information, Lyle

I’m wanting to add a battery tray in front of the starting battery tray. I noticed that there is some kind of sealant under each of the screws in the tray (silicone i guess). Anyway it got me thinking of how deep i can drill some screw holes without, (will you know what i’m thinking.) My luck would be to go too deep and end up, (you know the an…Read more

Bass Cat Boats:

We would suggest borrowing a 22” Fury and trying that. The Tempest is not our preferred propeller and there is a significant difference in how various styles work. If the 22” Fury works well, then we would buy a 22” FUR from PowerTech, as its features are a little more beneficial for the way your hull works, or so we have found…

As the ptp was 3 1/4″ and heeding the advise to move it slowly i moved it down 1/4″ making it(ptp) 3 1/2″. I thought that is where i would start to work this out.

i might have used a term (plow through the water) which is not a true picture of what it is doing. Its more like it won’t release from the drag without trimming it way high.

Today i took approx. 40 pounds of tackle bags, clothing (diddy ) bag, fire extinguisher, the front seat etc. and moved it all to the cockpit area and the rear hatch.Basically…Read more
