    Cabin cushion covers in the washer

    If you do go that route, take them to a laundromat with a LARGE tumbler machine. I just did that to my 2 piece boat cover this week, and there was no stress on the fabric. Do not use a machine with a center agitator.

    Average discounts in today’s market? 235 Freedom

    Just a quick read shows that labor got charged twice on job #5. And on job #6, 24 feet of red battery cable was $74.40, and 24 feet of black was $4,783.92. I would be giving that invoice a close inspection.

    Pulling the trigger on a pilot house on the 228

    To wipe the entire window with a vertical blade, you need two arms for each blade, and a pivoting blade. Look at #6 in the link. Your windows are narrow enough that you could get away with one per window. https://www.a1-windscreens.co.uk/news/windscreen-wiper-movements/...

    Pulling the trigger on a pilot house on the 228

    That was a nice day's work! On the sliders, does the front half slide back, or the back half forward?

    My next project!!

    You probably only need one good ground for the light circuit, but if I were replacing that bunch of grounds sprouting off of the single wire, I would replace that connection with a ground bus. Do you still have your old panel intact, so that you can at least see what color of wire comes off of...

    Hard Top vs Bimini for Freedom 235

    So, sticking with the Freedom 235, how much is the hardtop option from Grady?

    My next project!!

    Would be helpful to have a multi meter with an audible beep for continuity. One probe on the switch, the other to verify the wire at the end of the bundle.

    Hard Top vs Bimini for Freedom 235

    And get a rocket launcher with at least six tubes straight up 15*, and maybe two out to the side. Four is just lost opportunity.

    Steering wheel removal

    If it is original equipment, the nut should match the shaft, and it will be a heavy duty one piece threaded nut. If it is a replacement wheel, it may have an insert, which could be either threaded into the nut, or fit into a star shaped cut out on the back in the nut. YouTube is your friend, try...

    Starting

    I missed that you were reconnecting the battery. As said, probably left off a ground wire, since there are usually more black than red. If you can’t wire tie your cables together when they are on the battery, at least run a wire tie through the terminal loops when you disconnect them for the...

    Steering wheel removal

    Is that an Edson wheel? If it was just a cover nut for the “real nut“ it would pop off rather than unscrew. I believe it has an insert to match the threads on the shaft, so they will both come off together, and the wheel should then come off the shaft.

    Is the tilt trim also dead? Check the fuse under the engine cowling. There is usually a spare.

    12V Feed For 2000 Seafarer E-Box?

    I had assumed that the power for the fuse panel in my E box, came up through the pipe from the top of the dash to the side of the box, but it does not. It (wrapped in black tape)goes straight out the front of the box, through the enclosure track above the windshield, and appears to go into the...
