Just a tip when screwing anything into anything stainless. Always run a tap down the threads and then use anti seize on the threads. Garmins will share everything from front to rear with a cheep phone cable thinking they call them cat5 or 6 cables from Walmart. Great work on the installs.

We all understand the financial strain. I'll still be here when you upload. Love the vids. 👊

The financial struggle is real... I didn't even renew my fishing license this year because I couldn't justify spending the $50 on myself

Glad to see you back! Missed the uploads

Simply AWESOME! Do what you have to do. We are blessed to receive your content. Stay safe. God bless!

Glad to see the boat videos again. Keep up the good work.

Good to see you again! I was one of the guys saying HEY, WHERE YOU AT!!! You inspire me to start recording... i got something to say too, and sell.

Great video! Just wanted to say that when you call one of the largest boat manufacturers and start asking for free stuff, they are gonna instantly turn you down! You have to remember how many people call and ask for free stuff or breaks on things, regardless of how many views they get on KZread!! Not trying to be mean or rude, just wanted to say that!! I remember Basscat helped you with tons of information and knowledge in your earlier videos!!

Looks awesome man can’t wait to see it all on the water running . I’m working on a 86 skeeter myself

My 4 yr old son was pumped to see the upload! He loves this stuff. Nice work brother

New sub here and I have been bingeing all your vids over the last few days. Your production quality is great and your pure honesty of what you know and what you dont is incredibly refreshing. One thing that may be missing from simple editing is the use of anti seize, pure silicone grease, and a high quality corrosion inhibitor like CRC Marine corrosion inhibitor. Even if using high quality stainless steel hardware, you will still experience galling and galvanic corrosion in a marine environment that will make things wear faster, or be very difficult to remove as required. Anti seize is your primary marine environment go to. It is made of graphite along with other fine metal powders in a petroleum grease base. The fine metal powders resist galvanic corrosion by sacrificing itself far easier than the solid metal it is protecting. The graphite is rust's dream partner, it conducts a bit of free ions and readily becomes part of any rust that forms, but the graphite is weak and easily fractures in the same rust matrix later on when you trying to take things apart. The grease base helps slow water intrusion. The problem with Anti seize is you just open the container and 3 seconds later you will look like a Blue Man Group reject. its gets everywhere and hard to remove. It is also petroleum oil based so it shouldn't be used with plastics. Anything visible, or plastic that anti seize may contaminate, use pure silicone grease. It resists electric currents reducing galvanic corrosion, water resistant, and safe for plastics or rubber. A dab of silicone grease on connectors will stop water intrusion and make them come apart easier. Use on terminals and wires to help seal out the marine environment and prevent stray voltage or signal loss. Finally CRC marine corrosion inhibitor is an easy spray on anything metal protectant that forms a soft waxy but easy to remove coating. Use it on anything electrical exposed to water, any metal, battery terminals, you name it. Engine coils and trailer connectors, the trailer frame, anything. It dries to an amber color and is easy to remove with mineral spirits, brake clean, etc.

😂 about time you dropped another video.

Essentially made a bevel square and fit your graph!! You’re the man!!

Congratulations on the wedding bro boat looks great I still have my boat I finished 3 tournaments and upgraded my GPS units

you always make me itch to keep doin stuff to my boat

Crazy to hear that about Bass Cat!? I rarely ever hear bad about the company. I can remember back in the old bass boat forum days, the owner himself would post almost daily with detailed answers to any Bass Cat question,regardless of the boats age. That guy knew every screw size, tube diameter, paint color, every wire on those boats. He took a TON of his time to help everyone.

Good to see ya! Thxs

The oem steering wheel was higher quality and looked better IMO. Good to see you back! 👏

Great Video Man. You should buy some power poles,power poles will make things 10x easier to anchor

Great video, wish you luck

Not sure if you did or didn't, but always use stainless hardware. The other stuff will rust out bad... even just from humidity. Great video and keep them going!

I get you got mad at BassCat but they put a ton back into the sport overall. More than any non tracker marine brand. All this work on the new boat seems like a ton of time and cost to spend on just a stratos but at least its a post omc one and doesn't have a johnson or evenrude on it.

What happens with the ipad when your fishing and it pours down rain? Is the case its in waterproof or just removable?

FYI 93sv is compatible with livescope! My son bought one for his boat and he swares that the 93sv is the best unit by far for the price

So that head unit plays video. Let’s see that!

It's all looking good. Congratulations. The smaller screen is not much of an issue for me. You'll have a better front view when you're at the helm. And... it's cheaper ;-)

Do you fish offshore? I think the Garmin 74 series are for offshore fishing and 73 series are for inland lakes.

Wouldn’t be a tiny boat nation sponsored boat with out some short cuts taken

Seeing how you're KZread rich I'm bringing you my 2002 to re-do my carpet and switches and wet sand and buff😂 let me know I'm in AR.

Only 10 mins in. Puts anti lock iPad on dash. Has quick ram mount…
