Attached are a couple pics of 2022 Shorelander Single axle trailer with hydraulic surge brakes. I'm not sure the weight of your Alumacraft 175 and whether it requires brakes in New York. I'd check to see if you have a master cylinder under that plastic plug on the tongue and if you have a rubber hose brake line in the joint of the swing tongue. If your trailer came with brakes and someone pulled them off, it could be a problem if you ever have your trailer checked. Where I live, police have been checking trailers as it is an easy ticket for them. You could also check a parts list for your trailer and see if two tongues were offered. You shouldn't have brake components like breakaway and master cylinder if trailer has no brakes. Worth the time to check out before you have an issue. As far as the s hook that could be straightened or replaced with one from a bungie.

Post a picture of the tongue of your trailer so we can see if you have brakes or not. Usually a “breakaway” is to pull brakes on if trailer detaches. The common S hooks on those likely found at a hardware or a trailer store - used on surge brake systems. Some safety chains use S hooks too- kind of important to know what you have and not just not hook up.

Sure, remember you from the Oak. If you put the #3394002 number into fish307 site you will see a review from a customer that used the later board in his 10HS. I looked into your issue as I have a couple 10HS that I put boards in due to moisture. I sealed top and drilled a small drain hole in bottom-haven’t had an issue since. It might be worth a few calls to see if anybody has done that swap. Pretty simple wiring on Cannons so I don’t believe the boards are much different.

Check with Fish 307 about using a Mag 10STX board #3394006 ilo of the obsolete Mag 10HS board #3394002. Sounds like the #3394006 will substitute by changing a spade terminal on one wire and using the 10STX wiring diagram. Looks like that board is in stock and little cheaper than the original one. Hope this works for you.

I have a Simrad autopilot with Seastar steering and the install took less than a quart of fluid to bleed and fill. IMO with the small amount of oil used there is little savings or reasons to use anything other than a manufacturer oil or a manufacturer accepted spec oil. Not worth risking a pump or system failure.

Jann’s Netcraft is also a good source of single replacement guides. I’ve matched up replacements from them. Double footed replacements can be a bit more limited in choice. The old Ugly Sticks are worth keeping going.

I think the 1st Spring ESLO I fished was 1979 with my 16’ StarCraft and 3 buddies. We pretty much had no clue what we were doing. Sent two of the guys up to weigh a fish while me and the other guy held the boat off the concrete wall on the Genesee River. The guy who caught the fish comes back PO’d that they kept his fish. I go up to see what was going on and come to find out the guy was in 2nd place. A fair amount of beer had lead to the confusion and by the end of the Derby he finished 1 place out of the money. A lot of good times and stories from those days.

Your diagram is fine- but you would want your set back and weight the same for all three rods per side. That way as you reset you just slide down then put a rod in. That is a typical big board Lake Erie walleye setup with leadcore. We’ll use three 3 color on one side and three 5 color on the other. Now if your target is steelhead you might want to only do two per side- a hot steelhead can wad up a bunch of lines in a hurry.

Not exactly sure what the question is here. Can you use in line boards from a 26’ boat- yes as GF describes above. Can you run three lines per side from a mast and planer board system - yes with distance limited by the height of your tow line. Once tow line hits water that is about how far out you can go. Can you mix an in line board in with a mast and planer board system- that is not a good idea- would be pretty hard to reset lines. So pretty much an either or situation. All in lines or mast and planer boards. Either is effective and depends on preference, boat layout and experience of your crew.
