At the top right hand of the page is a small tool bar under the heading of Thread Tools.
If you go into this menu you can select a yellow exclamation point with the label, "Ignore Thread". I believe this option may help you enjoy the forum more. Certainly don't feel as if you have to contribute simply because others do.
Best Wishes.
lol..... I was gonna write something also but after reading your post is no need.

Too friggn funny!!!I think Tobnpr has a slight case of jealously going on there. Your post was extremely diplomatic to say the least. "enjoy the forum more" LMAO!
Yawn.
Somehow I knew this thread would come back to page 1.
You Yellowfin guys are something else.
If a build thread of a 42' Yellowfin (heck, insert any brand for that matter) doesn't get your blood flowing as a boat guy, then why do you even come to this forum?

Check - Mate.......next.
Anyone know if it will work on any motor as long as they are NEMA 200?
"Economy Screen" Do yo even care? I am just joking.
BTW, engine hours. The discrepancy in the hours between the 2 outside engine vs the 2 inside? Is there a scenario where you regularly are using just the 2 (like trolling or something)? or was it just that way from the various testing you have done?

It is right there on mine, under the "subscribe to this thread" setting, on this and other threads that I go to. Not sure if it is an Admiral's Club thing or what??

The input to the Merc Monitor uses Mercury's proprietary code. It then converts the data to NMEA 2000. Most other motor/engine brands already transmit in NMEA. It can go straight to the Garmin or others without the monitor. So no it won't work on other motors.

I think you hit the nail on the head:
Admirals Club

Ability to post classifieds in the Trading Dock Forum!

Customize your experience with a comprehensive ignore system!
Cover your tracks with a "Panic" button that hides the site!
Look at the 2nd to last "bullet"
No big deal, maybe one day I will join, just have no need to right now.
More importantly (well, just to satisfy my curiosity) what about the engine hours? Do you troll on just 2?
Sorry bout that, yup, trolling accts for engine hours. That difference is prep and fishing the Sailfish Open. about 6 days of fishing, we kite fished and drifted primarily, but when slow trolling cut the inside two and used the outers. I need to start using the inside two for power anchoring to even them back out.
I just found this thread and wow what a beautiful boat. It hurts to see you going out at tenth street in Sarasota the ramp I use and comparing it to my boat. Once again that boat is incredible.

Nothing to be "sorry" about - I am just a nosey PIA. Thanks for the answer though. If you ever need/want any crew to share the work and expense - let me. I will set the speed record for crossing Alligator Alley!
Had a chance to take her out today for some fishing. I really wanted to play with the Merc Monitor and get a feel for it. I will do a more extensive write up on it once I get back from a short trip. The short version is, WOW, look at all the info this gives me, and in a way that makes it simple to use for what you want.
The Economy screen is pretty amazing, though I may have some tweaking to do to get exactly what I want out of it. It directs you as to where to set the trim and throttle(RPM) to achieve best burn. Very cool stuff really, and easy to use because of the graphical nature it is presented in.
Just wanted to give everyone going to the Miami Boat show an update, and let them know that "The Office" will be on display at the Yellowfin booth for the show. I plan on coming over Friday, and think it would be great to meet up with any fellow THT'ers who are there that day. Might be a good time to check out the Merc Monitor if you haven't had a chance to see one in person.
