Thanks again Kelly for being such a good camera man.

The only way that I know of to have Dual stations with outboards, without going "fly by wire", is the Kobelt system.I have rigged several boats with this system and it is way more reliable than an electrical system. Both systems are expensive, but the manual Kobelt system is solid but big. Make sure to request short handles and the instalation hardware.Get ready to spend $4k plus with all the cables, but well worth it. Stryker Electronics in Port Hardy are all over this setup.

what kind of dual throtle and gear change do you use on the second helm station? I assume it is wireless???thanks--I have a second steering helm,but am unsure of the way to shift and throttle at the rear station.

Nice boat summer, hopefully she brings you a slab or two today....
 
Hey Scott: How's it going? lots of good stuff here. You will have to come visit the west side.

looks nice CPM....... Get a good deal on her down south? Better get going on getting her rigged up!
 
Congrats on the new ride! Love the big windows and walkaround..
 
@ Gear'n'bear Yep it was definitely worth while going to states, saved a bunch, and it's next to impossible to find the hardtop for sale here in canada. The rigging has already begun, I need to fix a few issues, with the kicker and the gauges, unfortunately it doesn't look like I will have funds to go with electric downriggers this year so I am going to have to stick to my manuals

@ MRACER NO it's the 135hp finding a 2002 rigged with 150 or even a 175 is next to impossible. I am happy it doesn't have the 125 which most Trophy's in the states have. The engine is essentially brand new it only has 16 hours as confirmed by a computer check done by the surveyor

@FB Ya I really like the windows and the hard top, really gives a great view all around

Got this boat last summer. 1998 double eagle 176, 2007 150hp etec, 2000 8hp Johnson kicker.
It's kind of fishy. Sorry for the sideway pics I'm learning
