Mine knocks you back in your seat. Plenty of power.

Rudder angle indicator

I talked to my Cobalt dealer and asked if he could install a rudder angle indicator on my R3. He told me they do not make them anymore and I'm out of luck. Any input?

Re: No depth on Garmin721

I just have one cable going to the Garmin. No others hanging around. On settings it says no NMEA 2000 devices. Port 2 is empty. I guess I'm out of luck. While I was under there I found a switch for accent lights I didn't know I had!

Re: No depth on Garmin721

Depth and temp are showing up on the boat's gauges. Go into settings on the Garmin? Sorry, this is my first experience with this setup.

No depth on Garmin721

How come the depth and temp don't show up on my Garmin 721? They are just blank.

Re: R3 On Trailer Length?

It is a Venture Commander 6000. I bought this trailer because of the price, weight and availability. I needed it right away. It's not the fancy custom trailers that a lot of people have but it gets me to the marina and I like the bunks in front. It launches and loads easily. I am not at the lake hou...

Re: R3 overheating.

First time I couldn't fix something myself. The dealer had it for two weeks and was baffled as well and finally found a small crack in the raw water pump. It was pumping but not enough. New pump all better. Thanks for all your suggestions. I may need you again.

Re: R3 overheating.

I can see the big hose from the transom to the unit and it is fine. It's the inside that I can't get at that I'm worried about. I don't want to start taking things apart that I may not get back together again.

Re: R3 overheating.

Flushed intake hose from raw water pump. Water came out intake holes. Flushed other hose and water came out where it should at transom. Still runs fine with flush hose. Hoses look fine all the way to the transom. I conclude the hose in with the trim pump was disturbed and water is coming out but not...
