    Considering a big switch for repower!

    I moved to Ponte Vedra (North Florida). I had lived in Kentucky my whole life and always imagined running a twin engine boat when I would watch the fishing shows on Saturday’s as a kid. When I go here I jumped on that one fast. Back to the main subject, In Wisconsin every year the ski teams...

    '93 244 Explorer Repower

    I repowered with the G2’s on my F26. Pay close attention to the 3” setback of these engines and how it will ad to the transom. It makes a difference. I am happy with everything about this switch and performance is outstanding.

    1990 Seafarer with 4 cycle Yamaha 225 sits low in the water

    Re: 1990 Seafarer with 4 cycle Yamaha 225 sits low in the wa Moving he batteries forward would seem to be the easiest move. The 225’s most likely have 15-20ft of cable tucked in the back of that boat when installed. It will also give you a chance to inspect the rest of the wiring. If you...

    F-26 Tigercat Repower with G2’s

    I thought this would be interesting to talk about since it involves the new G2’s and a Grady cat. I ran the cat for four years with Yammie 250 HPDIs which ran like champs. The extra weight did actually help as you read on post about the F26. I had been cleared for either a new boat or new...
