    TBH, it doesn't matter what "We" think. What matters is the manufacturers recommendation. And if I were you I'd be getting the vessel with the largest manufacturer recommended engine. This doesn't always equate to the highest fuel burn, because more HP means less revs so less fuel and less engine stress. 

    Bigger is always better...

    I wont be leg dropping anything for a while.

    just before xmas I stood on a glass bauble thing whilst  putting up lights in the conservatory, and sliced the heel of my left foot. Lots of blood and cursing, but up until this week it was still painful to walk on an just would not heal. So I got an appointment with the hospital podiatrist and she proceeded to dig this out from deep in the wound. It is better to walk on and should now heal.🙄

    Good effort. Must have been painful having that in there.

    Yes thats how I have posted videos in the past but I just didn't want poorly filmed phone video on my YT account. You get to many protesting vegans having their little tantrums if you kill, release, use fuel, own something not made out of hemp etc etc!!!!!

    When uploading the video to YT, set the visibility to "unlisted". You can still share a link on here but the video won't be searchable/viewable on YT.

    After the demise of my 5 year old Gopro 7 Black, which, like most other Gopro's had been unreliable from the start, but produced excellent video, I have replaced it with a DJI Action 4, which is the main competitor to the Gopro 12.

    So a short test Video that was shot in 4K30, processed over bluetooth on my phone using 'Light Cut' and the output to Youtube at 1080p. Doing this retains the sharpness a colour depth of 4K video. It was shot in Rock Steady mode, which retains the motion of the boat.

    I am sat there looking like a spare part as my rods are on the A frame slightly behind the camera, and we have 60 secs of Kyle landing a Whiting whilst we are at anchor.

     

    Lovely conditions to be afloat. Video seems good quality. 👍

    Back to talking transducers….

    I don’t suppose you got any photos of their drifting over fish? It looks like a great unit but don’t want to spend the money without having an idea that it’s going to cover my needs….

    No pics.

    Well done on the dogfish Mike 👍.

    If it were me I'd have been tempted to move the dinghy myself then gently squeeze past the floating pontoon . Does the Harbour master get funny if you do that sort of thing in Weymouth?

    @jonnyswamp, the heading sensor will likely be plugged into one of your old MFD's, which then shares the heading data with the network, so turning off that MFD will also cut the flow of heading data.

    Solution will be to either connect the heading sensor directly to the network, or simply don't turn off the MFD.
