Ive had this problem several times. Always ends up being a bilge pump that stays on because something is keeping the float open

soak the rode in downy fabric softener overnight. Its its new its stiff and might have a hard time

We have a 2012 GW 335 Freedom. The boat has two 350s and the transom is rated for 700hp. The newer ones have 3 x 300 and are rated for 900. Either way its a stronger transom which I would prefer. I would imagine in your case the newer Express has a stronger transom and hence the ability to have...

Hi Folks, This is for a 2012 337 Freedom which has a fold down table on the rear seat. Magnets are pretty oxidized - not sure if anyone knows who MFG these items? Thanks Alex

Hi Folks, Trying to troubleshoot something...... Maybe this has happened to someone here and they can provide advice. About 6 months ago I was cleaning out the Cedar Lined storage closet in the cabin of our 2012 Freedom, and it was soaked (wet floor and wet cedar wood). I took everything out...

Update - I replaced the switch as it happened again. All good now (except I ordered the wrong color light - now it looks yellow not red - oh well)

That is great advice - thank you!

So the 335 Freedom has a panel switch. Interestingly - after I played with the switch yesterday to confirm it was working (the voltage part), I had to go back to the boat today and check on a radio wire, the lights (and the switch) now work. Huh? Im guessing by taking the connectors off and on...
