Thanks . I'll have to remove the finish trim from the ceiling hatch, but I guess it's doable. Have you done yourself yours?

Hi. The ceiling cover(upholstery) of my Islander is sagging. Does anyone know how much could be to re do it? It's not vinyl, looks like fabric w/foam backing. Also can it be done DIY? Thanks

Hi Guys. I would like to know from owners of Islanders if any of you have twin 150s/175s, and if so, how your boat performs. The maximum HP for the Islander is 400hp ( 2x 200hp w/ twins), but I would like if someone has twin 150s or even twins 175's give me some information on those HPs...

Thanks. I will take a very serious look into this and see if I will do it.

Thanks. I will try it. About the conversion to fixed windows, How did you did it? did you kept the frames? The front ones I have doubt I would do it since it would be lots of glassing involved, but it's a good idea. Thanks very much

My windows don't look like that. and I still trying to learn how to remove it before removing the headliner.

How you did to remove the window? I want to remove mine in order to replace the headliner and side cover( goes under the trim).

Hi. How did you remove the window?

I want to replace the "headliner" and side upholstery of my 1998 Islander. To make a good finish the windows must be removed (I guess, since the carpet goes under the trim) and also it's time to replace the sliding channels> Does anybody has done it? If so, how it's done? Photos or videos would...

Thanks guys: Yes money is short. The F350 I'm looking for is a 2008/9 model. I would prefer twins, but the labor to install would be costly, I know many concerns w/ E-tecs due to no more available, but in my opinion, they are very good motors and would work fine. I had a chance to get twin 150s...

My 1998 Islander says it can go 400 hp., mine has (now) an Yamaha F250, I feel it is underpowered, but had the idea of getting twin HPDIs or E-tecs (200 hp each) due to weight concerns. The other day a friend asked me:" Why not use an 350hp instead of 2 200's? I would be missing only 50hp and...

Hi. Since I have the same year and model I want to ask you: Have you ever got the yacht certification plate? and if so, where did you got it? Thanks.

My Islander (1998) has a head w/ Jabsco pump (it's in bad shape), so, instead of buying a kit to fix it I'm In doubt of getting a new pump (Seaflow or Jabsco)or installing an electric pump. I have seen some 12- and 24-volt pumps for a not too bad price, My question is: Have any of you done that...

I have a 2006 F250 TUR. It has about 1100 hours and as far as i know no signs of corrosion and the problem I had was one valve and that was fixed by my mechanic (cost was high !), but still working fine , when i can uise it.

Thanks . I will look at Victron and see where i go.
