You can't pull it up with a rope if it is stuck deployed. I bent my bracket trying to do that, the only way is to do what Dino said, cutting or disconnection one hydraulic hose. Believe me, i tried everything, even moving forward onto a sandbar jumped out of boat and tried levering it up.. wrong!! Hence bent bracket. I have also had trouble with the grounding of the PP Motor, which sounds exactly like your problem Good Luck, keep us posted what happened

Mine is power tech 22, i never get near those speeds. Max I see is 58mph at 5800 rpms. I must say the whole shot is great, and it runs square from planing to WOT. Not as fast as others with Merc prop, burt fine for me I have tried the 19P PT 23p PT and I bought a 22, but I was thinking the 20 could be just right

Ya don't hit things:-) Seriously, welcome you gonna luv it!!

I love it too, it has opened up a whole new world to me.. FMT is the best

I too run the squirrel cage type blower on a timer.. Last year an extended power outage on the dock caused it to be off for almost 2 months and no ill effects.. IT MUST be 200F under that cover. The cover itself has 3 chimneys built in, and has a flow thru venting around transom..

I have seen all of the brands do this, It isn't just MK,MG It sux you cant speak to anyone at the factory.. Bought one made and serviced in FLA, and they are phone call away.. Sorry for your frustration, been there.....

On Mine there is 2 MB's One for Remote and GPS (comms), and the other is for everything else. Explained to me by Manufacturer ( not MinnKota) But all the same issues. So far, both have been replaced under warranty, it was the comm's board that fixed it.. Call them and tell them what you've tried and ask for a new Comms board or both.. Good Luck

Are you going to do the big loop?

I use the two step approach and never winch the boat for more than a few inches.. It takes a little longer, but on my 2300HPS it centers perfectly.. I thought about the loop method.. Sometimes I use bow and stern line just to float it the trailer, then tie off and pull it. I don't dunk the trailer more than the top of the tires.. Easy breezy.. I don't wanna be THAT guy at the ramp!!

OMG That is terrible News.. I can't imagine!! I was booking a trip there for next year.. And Ambergris Cay is one place I was going to hit.. My friend was robbed at gunpoint in St Marten. Going out for an ice cream.. 75 YO too.. I wish I was with him!!

I use RAM mount screwed to deck

MY RHODAN IS 60" I WISH I HAD THE 72"

Diamond braid, Blue is for me

We love Simrad NSS series, I have had them all. Using FMT it is a game changer
