(Laughs), you may have a point! :sign0151: Tracking Sandy now off the East coast. I'm about 27 miles in on the West coast (Suncoast) of Florida & 69 miles north of Tampa. The lake I live on an island in is called Lake Rousseau & my 1 stoplight town is Floral City. If you blink once while driving through and the light's green, you'll miss it!, he, he, he. We've a cold front moving over us this evening, and another in a day or so that should keep Sandy well away (I hope!:maxshoot3:) but the wind is up and if it holds will make for lousy fishing so my boating plans may get put on hold.:hook Anyway, my buddy loaned me his 14 1/4 x 26"p. Chopper to try next time out a long with a 25"p Renegade, an SRX (can't remember pitch off hand), and a 24"p Raker, a long with of course my original two props. I also have one of his shop tachs to be sure of RPM.:first: As you've suggested I've left motor height alone now that the transducer is out of the way (I still haven't re-mounted it) and I'll watch the weather for now - an post results once I get the opening (he, he) to launch and make some runs.:party0045:
