Update.
Moved battery switch to outside of seat storage, much easier to get too. The blue color in picture is boat shrink wrap.

The total scan transducer does not cause any issue with steering or speed!
This is the plug for charging

@wango tango

Mods look good!!!

What trailer guides did you install?
 
Special note!!!!
The nema 2000 network I installed on 2017 scarab from yacht devices came with wrong pin rewire information, contacted them and they sent updated instructions. I would strongly suggest purchasing the adapter plug so all you need is plug and play and no need to rewire anyway.
 
Ce Smith 60" trailer guide with lights $92.

TY!!! I’ve been wondering about a set for our 215 ID.

Did you just paint the lower part of the guides? Our trailer had the gatorhyde finish, so I’m was considering getting them sprayed with line x. They could probably spray each one when cleaning the gun out after a bed install.

TY again!!!
 
Yes I did, but you can buy a can of it, I didn't like seeing the galvanized metal on guides.

Looking at a pic of our trailer again (delivery is May 10), not sure those guides will work... The step pad goes all the way back from the fender since we have the tandem axle trailer.

Guess once we take delivery I’ll look into it a little closer.

How's the new boat?

Awesome!!!

We were only out for a short time Fri. Wanted to head out Sat but both of us felt kind of crappy....

Then Mon after work we dropped it off for the tunes upgrade!!! Probably be ready to pick up Fri.

I haven’t even looked at whether the pole guides will work with the tandem trailer or not yet... Maybe this w/e.

TY for asking!!!
