Anything New

[GLF]

I wanted to add an autopilot to my boat this winter. Unfortunately, this is not going to happen this year. I still have to reupholster the seats, vinyl panels, and redo the teak before spring. I need to get busy on this.

Sure would be nice if I hit the lotto. I guess I have to play it to win it.

What are you adding anything to your boat this winter?

I'm going to add an autopilot. I want to add a speed & temp probe too but I'm not sure it is going to happen. And maybe a copper setup. Other than that, nothing planned.

I've been busy this winter rethinking, and adding to the rod collection.

As it stands the spread is;

2, wire/low divers

2, braid/high divers

3, rigger rods

1, 2 color/swr

2, 5 color core

2, 10 color core

2, 120 copper

1, 175 copper

1, 300 copper

Also the rod tree's that Jon is making.

This should give me good coverage.

I may have to move the rods out of the garage because, it's driving me nuts seeing, but not being able to use them.

Nothing besides the 1 tekota i need to complete my 8 rod rigger and diver spread. I finally have the boat where i always wanted it and i sure am looking forward to not spending thousands of $$ this year:grin:

Save your money Mike. The cabin boys will soon be able to handle the back of the boat. You can be the full time helmsman.

I have two new Big Jon Multiset Rod holders, mounted on my out and down swivel bases. A couple of Okuma MA15DX reels and Diawa rods, for the inside riggers. A new wiper motor. Possibly a chart plotter sonar combo. My LMS 350 Lowrance is older than dirt.

I was going to add an autopilot and kicker this year, but after looking into my options I need hydraulic steering if I want the autopilot to work for the main engine and the kicker:( I'm going to just add two new seats and reupholster my boat as well. Maybe add the hydraulic steering this year as well.
