carb and tilt cylinders both need rebuilding or replaced
no gas leaks any where in a boat are ever OK no matter how minor they might seem
-
you will need to upgrade to a hyd helm with a slave steering cylinder in back
and because you have not power assist you will need a 2.1L or larger auto pilot pump to steer the boat while up on plane
you can get by with a smaller pump for trolling but if you want to use it running out to a spot a smaller pump will work but die a early death
with a hyd. steering up grade your options to good auto pilots greatly increases
all auto pilots have limitations what they can or can not do hyd units greatly improve trolling speed limitations

this is a 22' prototype
not approved for sale in the usa
certified for Canadian sale
there safety certification process is a little different than ours
there is a demand for this boat in Canada for commercial fishing not sure if we be applicable to a American market
if there is enough interest in it here we can get it certified
I rode in my self quite extensively the ride is amazing

Its easy to follow or copy
Its Not easy to Lead the way fish out side of the pack
But the results are often amazing remarkable and different
This ALL NEW boat sure looks weird but the ride was amazing
Also its ability to carry in the bow 2000.00 lbs of commercially harvested fish to the launch on the trailer and then to the fish market
fast easy efficient and safe
and great ride
may some day be available for recreational use if any one wanted to look a little different
but at calumet marine we are more worried about results than production capacity
Hewes craft has completely redone the sea runner this year not available in a production model until next year
some great improvements in the pacific cruiser

it is supposed to be yellow
it makes it easy to see any thing in line
if it ever has fluid in line you are supposed to replace pump and hose
this hose is only there for a safety device it needs to be clean and unobstructed
-
let there be light!
rigid lights are hard to beat
if you use in lines fuses or fuse panels all circuits need to be protected by some sort of appropriate size fuse or breaker
the main fuse panel should also have a maxi fuse or breaker with in 24" of the battery

on average 30% les than a lund of comparable size
the boat is not the expensive part
our average customer travels 450 miles too buy a boat
These boats are probably not for every one but people that use their boats appreciate there rugged roomy design no plastic on the dash no carpet on the floor
"built like a tank" is the most common comment when we ask some one what they think after seeing one for the first time
I hope to have the one in the picture above at the Berrien country fair in southern Michigan in a couple weeks we are sold out of 2013 boats and the 2014s wont be shipped for at least another month
no one has money to waste these days and all good new or used boats are expensive initially but in the long run these Hewes craft boats my be a much better choice for a lot of people
before you decide to buy any boat these deserve a look see
don't be the guy "dang I wish a would have looked at these before I bought brand X"
I hear it all the time
better yet let me get you out in a demo ride it makes a lot more sense than spending all this coin on a boat that you never got a test drive in
some day if I can ever sell my property in Chicago "really just on the Illinois Indiana state lie" = you don't have to go into Chicago to visit us from the east
I hope to open a new place in south west Michigan
I buy a few lotto tickets my self to help the moving expenses
Frank
I do really appreciate your picture and your setups' date=' they are beautiful...just glad you are in Chicago where you might sell some of them because I know very few people in Michigan that have the coin to spend on those rigs....ah, if only I won the lotto.[/quote'] -
any one want a demo ride time is now !
while the weather is nice

some thing to consider
1987 sportcraft 270 coastal fisherman

tuning can make a huge difference
when we install all auto pilots we do the compass calibration
this has to be done on a relatively calm day little or no wind
this is the first and most important part of the tuning process
BUT NOT THE END
at this pint the auto pilot will work
but gain and filters have to set and adjusted to get the most out of any auto pilot this has to be done a number of times in MANNY different weather/wind/wave conditions to get the most out a auto pilot regardless of brand or model
this will insure auto pilot will perform to the best of its ability
and as many have said
be the best money spent on fishing gear
-
rod holders mounted at this angle also double as rod storage under way
its a trade off
the best way to mount them for trolling rod holders is rite in line with the back of the hard top but this wont work for rod storage
-

3 man crew left the dock in Hammond marina around 3pm
headed straight out to 120 fow east in Michigan waters
a little bumpy at times but The word cat was just the boat for these conditions and a 20 mile ride out AND wow what a great time fish are getting bigger and bigger
we stopped in 90 fow and found water temp on top72 but only 69 on bottom
so we kept heading north east when we hit 110 a thermalcline developed about 65 feet down with temps on the bottom in the low 40s
most of out hit came on 300 copper dipseys out 300 al the way to the top
fun was had by all
