Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: BRP/OMC Instrumentation Poll

On the bottom of the left sidebar, you can select the type of BRP/OMC Instruments that you are using on the boat.

Because only members can vote in the poll, you will need to be logged in to be able to view and vote in the survey.

I am just curious as to what type of BRP/OMC instruments people are using.

Just click on the radial dot of the type of BRP/OMC instruments you are using.
I plan on creating more polls (surveys) for different items in the future....

For those of you that aren't sure which series of BRP gauges they have, take a look at this article.
http://www.whalercentral.com/readarti...icle_id=43

Also, for those of you who check the "Other" category, can you let us know here what series of gauges you are running on your BRP or older OMC motor?
Example:
"Concept Series"
"Classic Series"
etc....

I know there are a lot more of you members that have a Johnson or Evirnrude engines.

Now is the time to put in your 2 cents for this poll.... The poll isn't going to go on forever....

Well, so far we have a tie (6 to 6) between the older Traditional series which is no longer available and the newer Tech series.

I just switched over from the Traditional series to the Tech series because I could no longer get new gauges. Yes, once and awhile they show up on eBay but I got tired of waiting and my gauges needing replacing.

Anyone else????
Only 19 votes out of 6,500 + members....

I was thinking about having other polls for other things but if this is the best response we are going to get, then it might not be worth the trouble.

Any other polls you would like to see?
I was thinking about posting a new poll on the 1st of every month and letting it run for the full month...

What do you think?
Ideas?

Hi Joe,

What about moving the poll up in the left colum so it's visible right away and scrolling down isn't necessary? Just a thought...

Dave,
I hate to disrupt the rest of the page.

The poll keeps getting better and is back to a tie again between the Traditional series and the Tech series.
9 Traditional
9 Tech
1 Commader
2 I-Command
5 Other

I didn't realize there were so many people holding on to the Traditional series. I thought I was one of the last to hold out and thought I was holding out too long.

What are you going to do when you need to replace a gauge as the Traditional series is almost impossible to find in good condition?
That's why I finally decided to give it up and go with the newer series.

Well the Traditional series has taken the lead over the Tech series by 1 vote.

This poll is getting ready to end.

Would any of you like to see some other variety of poll?
I would like to start a new poll on the first of every month for something.
If you would like to see a certain poll, please submit an idea.

1. Obviously there needs to be a question. As short as possible
2. There should be no more than 5 choices about the question. The less choices the better.

Hope some of you submit some ideas for the poll section....

I'd like to learn what VHF radios WC members are using. :)
I don't know enough about them to pic the 5 most common choices though.
