@swatski my Connext screen will shut down when I press and hold the light button. You have to press it once to go to the light screen, then press and hold and it shuts down.

I've wondered about the tongue weight on my boat....going to have to check it! Gonna need a big scale!

Or, use @captras trick: press the Sys button in Connext. It also works w/everything off but House Battery switch on.

(there is not way to turn it off though, just need to turn the House Bat switch off or go through the whole start sequence)

Or you could use my push button start mod. With my mod (that I need to get added to my signature) you just press one button and both engines shut off but the tunes keep playing. Another alternative is to shit off one eninge with the key then turn that key back to on before shutting off the other engine.

If am glad that someone chimed in about the tongue weight formula. This is very important. I have never liked 10 percent and prefer 12-15 percent. If your vehicle won't handlenthat then you are already on the ragged edge of what you should be towing. Keeping the trailer level is quite important too.

If someone gets their hands on a very accurate scale to measure this please do post and note the distance from the end of the hitch to the bow roller mount arm, total weight, and tonuge weight. With that we can use math to figure out where the bow roller arm needs to be for different percentages as we can measure the distance to the axles.

Yup that's how I shut it down too. You can also set the auto blower not to come on with connext as that bothers me when I'm anchored out. Just need to remember to run blower before you start engines tho.
