    Duck Tape is your friend. for your next cable running project, Wrap the end of any cable (connected to your fish tape/wire/rope) with duck tape to make a smooth transition so there is nothing to hang up in the tube. pull slow and you have it. Great content, great videos. Good job.

      I used to be a field technician doing a lot of ethernet cabling. Electrical tape works amazing for doing the same thing and not nearly as thick as duct tape.

    Been restoring a fiberglass boat for 3 summers now. Tore it down to skin and bones. Every step I did gave me that “I give” feeling at first. Then going along anyway, mess something up and have to backtrack will bring out some demons for sure. Just need to know when to take a step back and a deep breath. Good work

    You need a cable puller from homedepot or amazon. It’s a coated wire you can run through the conduit and hook it up to wire and pull it through. Makes life sooo much easier.

    I rebuilt my Pontoon, took off everything, the engine, furniture, everything put new deck on it woven vinyl, and re did all wiring, added some new deck lights and docking lights, re did the console. Worked on the engine. I know my pontoon inside and out.

    I really enjoyed this video more than any other one I’ve ever seen of yours. I worked at Boris Marine electronics off and on and I worked for Texas boat works, and done a lot of installs on the side on electronics for people including Rick at Anglers pro tackle, on his boat so I enjoyed watching you work on yours, I wish I could’ve been there to help you buddy. I’ve got all the stuff you needed to run all those cables. You did a good job.for not having a fish tape puller!

    Rackley the dangling fool I absolutely loved it for sure!!! I remember putting my garmin on my 18’ wide body flat bottom and I definitely thought it was a nightmare trying to run wires for an older boat being a 1969 and didn’t even have a title for it when it came out they had told me when I tried getting it listened up but they made a new one for me!! With the boat not ever even having a trolling motor on it well she is definitely setup now but now I have been having some issues with the boat motor not wanting to idle up when putting in the forward gear!! She just wants to fall on her face every time!!! I have checked out the fuel system that I had herd from a couple people but everything in the fuel system is new and I’m still having issues with it!!! It definitely has me wondering what it might be and definitely stumped!!! I have even went through and completely rewired the entire engine because I had noticed quite a few wires that had gotten a little steamy maybe and was worried that maybe some had shorted out??? I no every thing was working up until winter and my first time out after winter it started doing this!!! No changes so I’m guessing it has to be something easy that I’m not seeing!! It is just a very low hour 35HP Johnson that definitely ran very smoothly I have ever seen an older engine that ran!!! It had been baught by a guy for a backup motor for his duck boat and had sat in his garage most of its life Incase he had issues with his other boat motor and he had said he never needed to use it other than put on a couple other boats that didn’t have a motor on and a buddy was looking to buy and they wanted to take the boats out to make sure they still floated and didn’t have any unforeseen holes or damage and then it was taken back off and back to his garage!! If any boat guys out there have any ideas on my issue I’m having with my engine please let me know!!! Thanks!!! And Rackley I definitely cannot wait to see you pull in some magnum crappies in your next video buddy!!! I was definitely hart Brocken when I didn’t get to see you ripping the lips off them in this video!!! I’m definitely itching to see that big 3lb magnum next video for sure!! Awesome video!!!!

    Wiring in boats is always a pain lol I have an avid and it’s pretty much identical to the Vexus boats. I made my harness for my 4 graphs on my boat in like 30 min for less than 200 bucks, the sea clear harnesses are ridiculously priced imo lol but looks good great job!

  • @robert_blackmon_fishon
    @robert_blackmon_fishon 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I have mine running down the outside rail inside a pvc tube. The great thing about that is I can route the wires easily and change it easily if desired. You are suppose to mount the transducer on the other side of the motor. You could see turbulence on the side you chose. Also get a block of plastic delrin from Bass Pro Shop and mount and glue it to the transom so you can drill into the plastic not the boat every time. I use to be your neighbor down the street in Double Oak and could show you my install but now I am fishing down south.

    • @bonesdc1
      @bonesdc1 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I have the same exact boat. And the spot where he put the transducer is exactly where the factory mounted it.

  • @bassfishingobsession
    @bassfishingobsession 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    What if you turn the bracket around on the back unit. Looks like it would angle front and it would give you a little more room. I did that on mine.

  • @caseysaunders2137

  • @matty2timez708
    @matty2timez708 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    A bit late for me to chime it...But I would have just run the transducer wire separately. You might have been able to mount and run your own 2-3" conduit (plastic not EMT) for future upgrades...But anything more than 3/4 full (in the "tube") is too much...BUT, if you have to run it through the "tube" use copious about of wire pull lube....TONS!

    Just a thought if I was a smaller company, let’s call it fun and son and I was using someone to market my goods and giving them an extreme deal and then felt like the deal was a little too one-sided! It sure comes to light when you decide to never use them In all of the things you said they did so well in your own application

  • @XclusiveDesigns1
    @XclusiveDesigns1 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Vexus messed up when they turned the electrical conduit 90 degrees like that. I used to work at Ranger and Triton. With those boats, all the electrical wires come out on the gunnel and everything runs flush behind the throttle panel. I live here in east texas. If you ever need some help with your boat you can hit me up sometime.

    Great job dude! I was sweating just watching you struggle in the heat. One quick comment. Has Googan ever questioned their customers/users whether they prefer those pain in the a$$ clamshell "protectants" in the soft bait bags? I live in Canada, so I don't get on the water much more than 100 times per year, but I don't know anyone who "appreciates" the added baitkeepers. Stay safe, love your content.

    Pro tip, anytime you run a cable tie on a pull string to go with it. Next time you need to run a wire that string is there to pull it!

    Not wanting to be critical, but putting a towel on the edge of the boat and using better form while lifting will save both you and your boat from injuries.

    Are the Long sleeve Shirts good at protecting you from the sun?
    I’ve had some before from an outdoors store but they really didn’t work. 😏
    But here’s my problem I’ve had some nasty back surgeries along with having psoriatic arthritis and so the medicine which is methotrexate that they have me on says to stay out of the sun. 😡 And I’m an outdoor freak and then some and I’m about to go flipping crazy because I have to stay out of the sun and trust me if I don’t it makes me a puppy big time, So right now life really sucks without being able to do what I love and that’s been on the water and in the woods all the time.😢
    So I need help and reliable feedback on some clothing that protects from the sun so I can get back out and fish. Please.
    Thank you for your channel and others like it, at least I can watch a good contact on what I love to do.
    Thank you
