From the ECM. Warren

Actually, my Yamaha calculates distance using the GPS, and it is NMEA 2000. I installed a paddlewheel sensor separately to get speed through the water, and that information is displayed on my Raymarine E-80 but is not interfaced to the Yamaha Command Link system. The paddlewheel is not very...

Good suggestions, thanks! The currents here will make setting up a repeatable test tricky, but it would be worth doing. Warren

That sounds like what I was getting a couple of years ago. Now I am getting about 14.x GPH. :crook Warren

It's from the integrated Yamaha Command Link system. AFAIK there is no calibration, as it measures the fuel being squirted into the cylinders. Maybe Matt or Marc can comment further? Warren

Brent, what kind of mileage do you get on plane? When I first got my TC I was regularly getting 1.8 to 2.1 mpg which did not seem to vary much from 14 to 25 mph, as measured by my Yamaha electronics. Now I am lucky to get 1.7, even with all the cruising crap off the boat. I don't know if it is...

Some of these issues were already discussed at the end of the Bellingham CBGT thread...Tom was going to look into it. Warren

I vote for LaConner for various reasons, but the primary one is that we have not had a CBGT there and until we do we will not really know how it compares to Bellingham. Is the factory going to be involved in this, or any other, CBGT? Warren

Why did you stick the circuit board & LEDs to the lens? What I meant was to fasten it to the metal of the fixture. Right now it is resting on the lens and works fine. I just thought by fastening it away from the lens the light might be slightly more diffuse and you would not be able to see the...

The ones I bought from Fisheries work fine. No interference. I just plugged mine in but I am wondering if the double-sided stickies in the package are intended to stick the circuit board up against the inside of the fixture? I threw my stickies away by mistake so need to find out if there is a...

Do you have a link? thanks. Warren

Tom, it was gratifying to see the Yamaha 150 on top of your list as that is what I have on my Tom Cat. However, I noticed that you did not rate Suzuki -- is that because there is no local dealer for you? Warren

Don't keep us in suspense! Warren

I'll be sure to try a cookie sheet next time. :wink: Warren

I tried out my Sleek in Canada and no joy. Wondering if I was using it incorrectly. Jim said something about putting the antenna on a pie plate? Maybe there was no signal to be had. Warren

A general comment about this topic: I installed a Xantrex LinkLike battery monitor on the Tom Cat before going to the Broughtons earlier this "summer" and it was freaking awesome. I run a big WAECO freezer off an inverter (the DC input died) and with the LinkLite I learned when I could run the...

I would still rather be here than dealing with the heat everywhere else! Warren (who picked the wrong summer to go to the Broughtons!)

Tom, is there a venue for the potluck at the marina, such as a yacht club? It would be nice to not have to worry about whether it rains. Warren

Tom, great news. Let me know how we can help put on a killer CBGT in LaConner! Warren

Tom, on the way home Lori and I were talking about Anacortes as a possible new venue for the Bellingham CBGT. However, we would be more than happy to help you put the event on, whether in LaConner or Anacortes. Does the LaConner marina take transient boats? Would they put us all together? One...
