Re: Replacing the drain plug
 

Transducer does not work well above 20mph.
Have moved it up and down, as well as several other places.
Had an old thread here when I mounted it about a year ago.

But, it might just be the hummingbird matrix 17 sucks.

EDIT: Just read above link again, and looked at photo.
We moved it.
It now is located on farthest outside step, (below the vents coming out the back), which is why it probably doesn't work above 20mph.

Re: Replacing the drain plug
 

Any thoughts on scuppers for the '72 Center Console?
Stick with brass tubes (same as drain?) and rubber flap (hope not).

CPES is going in tomorrow (Sunday), then next weekend the Layup & Laminating Resin, with cap rebuild perhaps 4 days later. Hope to be in the water for fireworks weekend. (Transom was always rock solid, and surprised to see like new under old cap, but a few drilled holes along bottom were soft. Boat was pickled in warehouse for 15 years).
