    Gas Prices 1947

    I can remember thinking that my Dad was really cheap. We would drive to my Grandmothers house and he would drive miles out of the way to get gas at a couple of stations in Missouri at 18 or 19 cents a gallon. That was in 1960. How soon I forget and how wrong I was. Once at my Grandmothers...

    lug crimper needed

    I guess I have always believed solder connections made a solid metal on metal connection and had to be the best. Looks like you learn something everyday! Just read about twenty different views on crimping vs soldering. Looks like the consensus is crimping wins out hands down. Now if I...

    For a few large wires solder is the way to go and is by far the best connection.

    securing batteries in compartments and other ?'s

    Thanks for the pictures. Now I no what that little white plug was that I found in the port battery lazerette. The battery holder hid the hole and I did not know it was there. I believe running on both works well for me but it is more important that you understand how the switch works so you...

    Third battery Diagram

    Thanks Matt, That is sort of my problem. I do not fully understand the operation of the switch that you recommended. I will gladly take your advice. I would like to know how you would normally run with the switch you recommend and when I install it which switch should I replace. The one in...

    Third battery Diagram

    Thanks for making it larger. I tried without success to paste this in the post. I guess I am wondering why people use so many electronic components when this is so simple and appears to work as long as you don't mind switching manually.

    Third battery Diagram

    I am trying to get some feedback before I blow up my batteries. The only sketch I found that looks like what I am trying to do I found in the first picture under electrical pictures. I have two four position battery switches but in all the reading I have done I do not read anywhere where...

    Came Across a Couple of Interesting Boats...

    Looks like boats that I have been in many times. They are cold in the winter, hot in the summer and generally only good in smooth water. Head height is for very short people or just sitting down. In general not very comfortable and only good for a day on the water. Never a night.

    Battery Charger

    Thanks Charlie, What I cant seem to grasp is why the installation manual says I need a #2 wire for a round trip run of 30 feet for the output of the charger. It also shows a breaker on each positive lead that is to be matched to the wire size. Before I buy this wire I wanted to get some input...

    Battery Charger

    I was really disappointed that no one offered any reply to my questions but it did make me search for the answers on my own. You learn something everyday.

    Battery Charger

    Hello guys, I hope you are not to busy today and don't mind talking about batteries on more time. I am just now replacing a guest 5/5 charger. I recently got a great deal on a Xantrex 2 40 amp charger. Now that I have had time to reflect I think this is a little to much overkill. I am still...
