    MFI Trailer Issue

    I cleaned the ground real well and the switch does not make a clicking noise so it must be a bad reverse solenoid. It looks like a knuckle buster. Has anyone have any ticks to the easiest way to replace it?

    MFI Trailer Issue

    The trailer brakes have started going on in reverse on any small incline. There is electricity getting to the reverse solenoid. I used a test light. It was always very sensitive in reverse but has gotten worse. Anyone have any advice?

For me, I declare that my primary use is in the Delaware waters. As long as you do not keep the boat...

    Atlantic City Air Show

    I went for the last 2 years. It was a great show. The Thunderbirds flying between the casinos were awesome. I will not be able to make it this year, but I guarantee you it will be a memorable experience you will not forget.

    If you are in an area without your boat and have some free time, go to the local boat ramp and watch the action. I have often road away on my bike laughing like crazy.

    Installation of DSC VHF radio to the stock GPS antenna

    You should be good if you ran it to the main switch back at the battery. I believe many people just hook it up to the wiring under the dash since the radio only requires low power. If fuse on the dash pops, the radio becomes useless. Overloaded wires could cause the wires close by to short out...

    Installation of DSC VHF radio to the stock GPS antenna

    I ran the wires from the compartment back of the dash under the floor by lifting the floor lid over the gas tank and hooked it directly to the battery. A Coast Guard course I took many years ago recommended that the VHF radio be tied directly to the battery in case there would ever be an...
