    Does the Knob Cut carry a load well?

    I've got a 28p Alli-Cut Chopper II that carries my boat better than anything else I've run. (XB2003 / 225PM) My boat is loaded heavy and I'm a big guy. I need something to carry the bow a little. How would a Knob Cut Chopper do? I'm looking for one in a 26P.

    Has anyone installed a Minn Kota Fortrex or Ultrex on an XB2003? I really want an Ultrex with spot lock, but they stow so high I'm afraid I couldn't even see to the left while driving lol. Any pics would be awesome. Google images has failed me.

    225pm Poppet valve plumbing

    My understanding of a poppet valve is that when the water pressure reaches a certain point, the poppet valve opens and allows excess pressure to vent through the hose that goes to the top of the block. This port at the top of the block dumps into the exhaust and is dumped out the motor. My...

    What's this called?

    They're the bolts with a concave head that attatch to the motor bracket The trim rams on a 225 Promax push against them. One of mine fell off the other night when I tilted the motor up for travel. After looking at it, it cracked on the back side of the head and loosened up, allowing the nut to...

    WTT My Hydro Quad IV OT for your Knob Cut

    I've got a 28p Hydromotive Quad IV OT that's been worked and labbed by Todd. I bought it from "GotMyAlly" last year. In full disclosure, he told me it had a small crack that was also repaired and by Todd. He gave it his blessing. I've run it very little mainly because I always run with a pretty...

    Fuel filler issues XB2003

    Is it just me or is filling the tank on all XB03's a pain in the butt? It seems it swedges down a few inches in and the angle of the nozzle shoved all the way in (difficult with today's rubber vapor shields) is very critical just to be able to fill at half speed or it'll back up and shut off...

    Removable Foot Control Trolling Motor

    I couldn't figure out where to put this, but you guys that have removable trolling motors, how do you handle the issue of the foot control?
