Who's steering system are you using?

[spiker]

Latham I believe

[Ratickle]

Let me look into theirs. I'm surprised you have 2 power steering pumps. That would be some special valving....

I've had a couple boats that ran a ps pump on each motor. Easy to remember as those were the ones that never died when docking or caught fire and lost PS in a crosswind during a bass tournament or..,.. Shall I keep going

[Ratickle]

Caught fire ? Doesn't sound too good.....

First off, I wish I had that boat back. Very clean. Second, had a coil blow up and start a small fire while coming into the loto marina during a bass tournament. That was the ps motor also. Little smoke turned into big flame when we put up the hatch!!! Oh yea, it was my demo ride in the boat after I bought it sight unseen. Lol

[Coolerman]

The funny part of it is (well, not so funny), is the fire happened 15mins after you got it insured as well, right?

[BDARCHER]

Chris Did the crew have to abandon ship when you opened the hatch? Where is the boat now?

We thought about it but I ripped a fire extinguisher off the wall and put it out. That crap corrodes everything come to find out. Boat resides in Acworth Georgia and the owner has only had issues with a couple lowers but not much else. bmax drives. Had 100 hours on it when I bought it and was super clean

[Ratickle]

What kind of coil was it?

[endeavor1]

What kind of coil was it?

Naughty motor!! It had a crane on it with a msd distributor if I remember correctly. Sax would prob know.

[Coolerman]

I thought I remember you saying crane as well, but it looks like an msd 6 box on the back.

[endeavor1]

Looks like it says fireball to me when you zoom in and your msd should be blue like what I run now. Jeeze sax, you eat a dumbass sandwich for lunch while you were cold and calling?

[Coolerman]

I'm blind.... But for fox sake Chris, didn't you can get a blue, red, or black msd6?

[Ratickle]

Well, yes you can. But the Marine one is blue!!!

[endeavor1]

So, what BT will I buy next.... Lol
