CONTINUOUSWAVE

I was wondering if there is something that may make the test useless.

And if the same after that?

How does the battery affects the test?

The depth finder bracket was empty, no transducer.

Thanks

Well, I went out to look at the boat again, put an Ohmmeter between a drain hole in the transom and a depth finder bracket and got a reading. Did the same between two drains on transom [and got] the same [reading].

[What is your comment about these unspecified resistance readings]?

Many thanks for your time and your knowledge.

Hello. I plan to buy a MONTAUK 17. I came across 1984 boat that I really like—except it has keel damage depicted in Figure 1. The owner said that the DIY-repair was done to prevent further damage until professionally done, and that it was mostly sandbar rash from years of beaching the boat. I have n...
