  1. I have previously owned a 2001 Sportcraft 272. I had a few of the sliding windows that had disintegrated gaskets. Could never find them anywhere. After I sold it I ran across a company that had the exact right thing. Try an outfit called Pompanette LLC. They specialize in marine window gaskets in seals. As for the kicker, i had a Yamaha T 9.9 XPA on it. The 25 in shaft worked great and it was quiet and smooth. Worked well up to 3 ft waves than it struggled after that. Burned almost no fuel. If I would do it today, I would go with the 15 hp merc with EFI. Low noise and low vibration makes a 5 hr trolling morning much more enjoyable. If I want to hear engine noise and vibration I will stand by the highway and wait for a Harley to go by. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. It's become a matter of this board or me !!!! Going to make it work one way or another ! Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. Tried to de-solder the relays from the board. The 3 tabs from the contacts came out fine. The 2 tabs from the relay coil did not work so well. Their "trace" was on the opposite side of the board and did not completely release. The traces pulled away from the board and broke away staying on the relay solder tab. I was able to solder a small piece of wire on each of the remaining trace and I hope to save the board. Before I try to remove the second relay, I will get a hotter soldering iron and a different method to suck up the molten solder from the trace. I was using a small vacuum bulb and never had any luck with those. I need to get some of the solder wicking flat cable which works better. The relays are available from Digi-key for $1.94 each. They have cut down tabs to go into the holes on the board. It may be more appropriate to leave the relays intact and solder wires to the back side. There are relay sockets with wires available. The relay is a A21CSP from CIT Relay and Switch Co. An A21CSQ would have the full 1/4 tab to go in a socket. This would work well as long as the old relays continue to move even if the the contacts are burned. It would also be possible to cut the relay case apart , remove the contacts and coil to gain access to the soldered tabs. Then solder the wires from a socket to them. This may work better. Still working to improve solder removal and technique. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  5. Retired and fish every possible day. Plenty of Mark's no decent takers for about a week and a half. Out in 125 off dunes right now. Just put em down. Again,lots of Mark's. Got to bite sometime. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. Did not try any painted ones. It did not remove any tape on those types. I would say it probably would not degrade the paint. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  7. Put in the new board and it worked fine. Will remove relays when I get home. May be able to solder in a socket so plug in relays can be used. Will check it all out. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  8. Slow morning off the dunes. A few lakers. Did not see anybody doing anything. Lots of Mark's and again no takers. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  9. Fished the last few days morn and evening in front of the dunes 110 to 150 ft. Plenty of Mark's. Not much active fish. A few shakers but mostly browns on spoons. Took today off. Hope the bite improves tomorrow. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. New control board arrived today. No encapsulation on the wave solder joints on the bottom of the board. Can easily de-solder and replace relays. I will be ordering some relays on line to repair the old control board. Everyone with this problem should save their old board since they can be repaired.

  11. I have only 1/4 dia rivets. 1/8 to 3/16 and 1/4 to 5/16 grip ranges. If you decide to open the hole to 1/4, I can send a few Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. I bought a min $75 order a few years ago. Mostly 1/4 but I may have some 3/16. I will be at camp tomorrow and will check what I have. If I have em I will send 4 or 5. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. If you hold the switch in the up position and it continues to stop after 10 ft or so, it is highly likely it is the internal thermal breaker on the motor. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. Update! Was finally able to get thru to Cannon customer service. Control board 3394006 is in stock, $61.79. Total with tax and shipping $75. Ordered it. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. Familiar problem. I am helping a neighbor with a 5ST. Same inside as a 10 STX. Wont run after the winter in the garage. I noticed the relays clicking when pushing the switch up and down. Pulled the cover, could feel the relays pulsing when switched. Thought it may be the motor. Pulled wires off the board and jumped to 12v directly. Motor worked fine. Interesting. Checked voltage at the board on the motor terminals with a meter. +12 in one direction and -12 volts in the other. Now very interesting! All looks good. STILL WONT RUN. Drawing on 42 years of experience with machine controls I am betting one or both of the relays are cooked. The contacts allow enough current flow to be useful for the meter check but any large current draw to run the motor will not happen. I have seen this before. This is a common problem on relays used on winches. I haven't taken the board out yet but I am betting the relays are soldered and encapsulated in epoxy on the back side. I have carefully replaced them on an old Mag 10 years ago. This time the neighbor will be buying a new board. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Back in 2008 I sold a similar boat but a 230. Sorry I sold it. Was a very good , reliable and stable rig. Good luck with the sale. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. A few boats up there but widely spread out. Have not seen anybody else with any on. No nets moving. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Currently in 153 ft off dunes. Slow, slow morning. Few Mark's since 6am. No takers Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. Oops, I misunderstood your question. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. If you are going out of sandy pond, 100 ft is about 4 mi out Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. Had 4 of them years ago. May have manual kicking around. I will look for it. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Decided to try a technique I saw online for cleaning silverware on NK's. Consists of putting aluminum foil in a glass bowl with baking soda, salt and water. The results were amazing. Looks better than new. The 28 in the picture was a mess to start. I let it stand overnite. You can find that technique online. Keep in mind the NK body must have good contact with the foil.

  23. Just returned from Reiters. No watermelon type diamond kings. Plenty of plain and taped #4 & 5. I couldn't resist and picked up a few more. Lures are like drugs. Note the prices. I asked if there could be more hidden in the back, no luck. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. Yes, Reiters in Sandy Creek. I can stop over there on thurs and check what is available. I bought some about 6 months ago. None that u are looking for though. Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  25. Going to need to go out about 10 miles to hit 400 ft from the little salmon river toward the high rocks Sent from my SM-J737V using Lake Ontario United mobile app
