I also have a 330 and went the DIY route with an electronic pump. IMO this sort of system really is designed for boats with constant power and there's no need to overcomplicate. I think I run mine 3 minutes every 6 hours. It pumps a *small* amount of water out each time, but is enough to...

There is almost no way the math works out in your favor on this. Even if the Sharrow props worked INCREDIBLY well (a big if) - and gave you a 25-30% improvement in fuel burn... you'd have to spend $50,000 on fuel to get your money back. That's filling up your boat once a month for 3 years...

It probably won't matter for your needs, but you may want to double check your mount points - the older 330s had more of a rounded profile on both sides, whereas on the newer ones I think they flattened it out a bit for the fridge and grill options.

Boatoutfitters.com has a couple of footrest options...

You won't be able to replace the generator "with solar." You can definitely replace the generator with a bank of lithium batteries and an inverter - where you'll be looking at anywhere from $3k-10k depending on how much capacity you want. And once you do that, yes, the 330 does have enough...

If you have air horns, they are not factory. If you have the two "canister" horns side by side on the starboard side beneath the windshield, they are 12v horns. I just replaced mine with Ongaro Twin Horns and am happy with the output. You should have a few inches of wire to work with when you...

Jigsaw, rotozip, or oscillating saw are the tools for this job. Definitely mask the area well with painters tape. Rotozip is the least invasive but also pretty hard to control. Oscillating saw is easy to control but makes a ton of dust and your cut won't be super circular. Any of the above...

As above, Walmart has a replacement that is pretty close, or if you want stainless - Williams Sonoma for a hundred bucks. Here's my thread on it from a few years back: https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/microwave-for-a-2002-330-express.29072/ Spoiler alert - I never did replace the cracked...

Appreciate all the replies. I do have those taco holders on the starboard side of my cabin headliner, but am reluctant to put a set on the port side because then I'll be poking myself in the face with rods every time I stand near the fridge. Despite sleeping on the boat exactly once, I like to...

I read the THT thread and the BBB complaints and they both look pretty minor, you can't fault the vendor for parts delays in 2021-2022, but hey maybe they do suck at returns. I think everyone posting positive things here is just reiterating that generally they are a legitimate business. I've...

The other thread got me thinking. I have 4 rod holders mounted in the headliner of the cabin, and typically leave another 4 regularly used rods lying on the bed for storage. However, most of my setups are 6' in length, so there is technically room for them standing inside the cabin. Has...

I have F300s, so for me there was no problem putting a 5 rod holder across the back and I troll from the center holder between the motors. (I cannot, however, tilt my motors up with rods in them or they would hit the reels) However, you still have plenty of room for 3 or even 5 rod holders -...

It really depends on the boat and how far offshore you're going. As above, in a 330 you can pretty much take an entire toolbox and everything you need for most repairs and not miss the space one bit. (hell I keep a shop vac in my cabin just to save me trips inside the house when I'm doing...

I'm on my second set of F300s on my 2001 330. When I bought the boat used, the props were Quicksilver Thunderbolt 15.5x17p. Cruise low 30s, WOT 42-44, generally 1.0-1.2 mpg on plane. When I repowered, I kept those props for a bit and then moved to a set of Powertech L3 15 3/4 x 15. Boat...

When I took everything apart, mine clearly had 2" of water sitting in the blower assembly for some time. I suspect the very first time was after a hurricane we had where I took off the eisenglass - outside of that, it oculd have been my detailer one year, could have been some other mishap, who...
