I've got a 19 L5P with 40K miles, mine has been doing this for about 5k miles. I've read on various L5P groups/forums that it is a bad tank sensor.

The sensor is located within the tank, so the entire tank must be replaced. Apparently this is a common issue as multiple people in these groups are discussing it.

Didn't make it up here for morning hunt, just climbed up for the afternoon. All deer this season have been taken in the afternoon. Trying to get my first one ever.

Eta: those lines are fine. Much like a yellowfin

Enough for Yellowfin (in their opinion) to sue Barker over it.

I followed the steps I mentioned above, although my gel coat was in pretty good shape to begin with, I only compounded in bad spots. Then it was polish and hand waxed. I used the 3M Finesse It polish and Collinite paste wax.

I was very pleased with the outcome. This was done during a haul out two years ago and the sides are still holding up pretty well. Will probably do it again next haul out in the spring..

Port side polished, no wax

FWIW, I have never used an electric smoker, but will say as another possible option, look into a UDS (ugly drum smoker). They require minimal effort, and turn out some really good bbq. I built one, and used it for about 5 years, ended up building one for my BIL and father, both of them love theirs.

There is a thread on BBQ Brethren (link below) with an easy to follow photo by photo instruction on how to build one. All you do is control air flow to maintain temps and it is surprisingly easy to use, and does not need a lot of attention once "dialed in"

I really enjoyed my UDS, and its relatively small footprint. I wanted to expand my cooking abilities and just recently got into a custom built offset / stick burner, but I love "tending the pit" and nothing tastes better to me than all wood smokin'

Either way you go, enjoy it. :cheers:

My daughter is 10 months, and around 18 lbs. I am considering the infant one from Mustang Survival. I like their adult products. We have a mid sized sailboat, with all the things to trip over as she gets more mobile, I want something good. Safety is number 1, price doesn't really matter.

We are small business in SWLA and an OEM of pressure control equipment. We've taken it on the chin starting in November of 14. Its been a struggle to hold on to the small number of employees we have. The other side is trying to get inventory dwindled down to a manageable level, and keep a supply chain that allows us the keep some of our ability to ramp up production if need be.

Its like going 80 mph on the interstate and hitting a dead stop. We always knew it was possible, but its a one foot on the gas, one foot on the brake business as a small manufacturer.

That is a site for sailboats, but that is a very thorough guide on compounding / polishing / waxing. I don't know how much work you are wanting to do, but that will certainly make her look like she just rolled out the factory.

I did my boat following these steps recently and it came out great. I used:

3M Rubbing Compound
3M Finesse It Polish
Collinite #885 Fleetwax

Have fun!
