    1986 Brougham Bridger Yukon Delta Fishing boat renovation

    So far it seems to be running ok. I'll know more when it warms up a bit more than 45 degrees. We finally got it off of the trailer and moved into the garage. Had to wait a day for it to defrost, dry off, and warm up. Started to prep for the wiring by installing the tubing for the wire ways...

    Garmin 93SV Installation questions

    Wouldn't the only signal that would be recognized would come from the transducer? As well as the only signals that the 93SV could use would be from the transducer? Thus making the extra pigtail irrelevant?

    Garmin 93SV Installation questions

    Why couldn't I just make basically a "Y" cord? I'll only have one input (Transducer) and only one leg would be used since I only have one 93SV? I'm thinking that the transducer won't care which leg uses the information, it will be getting power from only one leg. Just tossing it out there.

    Garmin 93SV Installation questions

    Ok, so the NMEA shares data, not the accessory transducer. i'm understanding this a bit better. My soldering skills are pretty good. Repaired several hundred furnace boards when I taught HVAC at a trade school and a couple of corvette control boards. 12 pins x 3 shouldn't be too bad. Just...

    Garmin 93SV Installation questions

    With the NMEA 2000 setup, would I be able to just move the unit to the back and connect it to a "T" in the NMEA 2000? The splice box sounds doable as well, probably cheaper.

    Garmin 93SV Installation questions

    Scott, I don't know for sure. It's been a while since I've had it out of the box. I do know it's about 17-18 feet to the helm from the back of the boat. Either Friday or Saturday, the boat goes into the garage for wiring, engine, lower install. I have the wheels to mount onto the cradle for...

    Garmin 93SV Installation questions

    I will be installing a Garmin 93SV, the last model for a non-touch screen on my boat. Since the boat is 25 feet long, the Garmin will be mounted on the helm. Which is about 3 to 4 feet above the back lower deck. However, while drift fishing, I would like to have the Garmin unit mounted lower...

    Tackle boxes

    This is what I use. Cheap, effective. Most all of my fishing is for catfish or bait fish. One small and one large holds all I need.

    Alpha gen 2 trim cyls on alpha one?

    Seem that when I picked up this big box of parts that went with the 1983 Mercruiser engine and outdruve assembly, I got some extra parts. From what I've been able to figure out is that I have a 1983 pre-alpha one lower, it has the pre-load pin in the top of the vertical shaft. And its...

    Hydraulic steering?

    Just starting to restore/renovate an 86 YDH fishing boat. It will be getting a mercruiser drive package with an Alpha 1 out drive. I know there are certain hp restrictions for certain steering types. I have a power steering pump and cooler on the mercruiser engine that will be going into this...

    1986 Brougham Bridger Yukon Delta Fishing boat renovation

    This is the area directly under the long seats on either side of the boat. Plenty of room to run the controls and the necessary wiring. Looking from the stern to the bow.

    1986 Brougham Bridger Yukon Delta Fishing boat renovation

    Found this peculiar critter in the brush at an old marina. It's an ugly that grows on you. I've been trying to find out more about this boat but haven't been too successful at it. All I know is it's an XT with a data plate on it from Brougham Bridger, Elkhart, Indiana, and it was made by Yukon...

    Yukon Delta Boat Trailer??

    Looking at picking up a Yukon Delta Fishing boat. Current owner doesn't have a trailer that goes with it. Does anyone have a picture of a Yukon Delta trailer? Thanks for looking.
