Thanks guys. Anyone use RainX on their windshield? Is there a particular type?

Hi all, The water supply line to my windshield washer broke and I am not sure how to get at the fixture from inside the console. First pic is of the broken water line. Second pic is a panel inside the console and I am not sure how it is attached to the inside of the console. I don't want to...

Not really, couldnt see why they were so close

Back to the Boat Show, the biggest head scratcher to me was the 271 Canyon at $300K+ while the 306 Canyon was $345K. Not much of a difference in price for much more boat.

I have the 2017 GW 306 and use it on the South Shore of MA and off Cape Cod. Previously had the GW Sailfish 282 and before the Sportsman 180 CC. The 306 is a beast. Not just me saying it, but everyone I bring out is amazed at the ride. We have wind blown waves here that can build quickly. I...

Before and after pics of new 5 rod rocket launcher on my 306 Canyon. Wrong color inserts, but I can change that!

I had a 282 and had no problems. I do not fish commercially and try and target 60-73" as much as possible although you never can predict what you may hook up to. We fish standup with Talica 25s and Terez rods with a harness. we position the angler in the starboard, aft corner by the door for...

Congrats! Beautiful boat, enjoy!

Thanks all. Seems this is common. Aft bilge is bone dry!

Hi all, I have a 2017 Canyon 306. It hs both forward and aft bilge pumps. After it rains, my forward bilge needs pumping, substantial water accumulates there. I know it is not salt water and thus a leak, it is only after a rain. Anyone else have this? I can't find any obvious source, its a...

Agree on radar and autopilot.

Sounds like solid logic to me on the triple 300s. I love mine, they are proven. However, the T425 will likely be much more maneuverable given how far apart they are on the transom. As I am having a hydraulic leak on my steering now, having the electric steering sounds enticing, eliminates...

Wow, I am jealous!! Where I am, a bow thruster is more helpful than helm master in docking as wind and current blowing the bow sideways is an issue when backing in. Rod holders in the bow, maybe? My kids would love a Lilipad diving board mounted to the bow, but it won't fit on my 306! I...

Thanks for the info, interesting. My Yamaha digital gauge does have fuel flow, both real time and cumulative. This is how I manage my fuel, by knowing how much I put in and how much I use. This was the first time, due to a conscious decision to go further, that we knew we were getting below...

My 2017 Canyon 306 (Yam 300s) has a 290gal tank according to GW specs. After taking a much longer trip than anticipated I got to the harbor with the lowest bar on the gas gauge flashing as a low fuel alarm. The four of us were curious how much was left in reserve at that point as I have never...
