    2009 Yamaha F250 bogging down, stalled out underway

    Ok - thank you for the tip. I’m glad it was a simple fix. We changed the same fuel line in Port engine and it looked tired. I would imagine a lot of outboards 10+ years old have some tired fuel lines in the harness and should be addressed. Thanks again.

    2009 Yamaha F250 bogging down, stalled out underway

    UPDATE ON MY FUEL ISSUE. Turns out I had a slice in my fuel line right where it enters the engine in the harness. I figure over time with the engine tilting up or the times when the engines are not turned to the side, it pinched the fuel line enough times to split it.

    2009 Yamaha F250 bogging down, stalled out underway

    I’m putting 4 new DEKA 27 batteries in tomorrow. My mechanic will hopefully come out on boat for test run on Weds. I’m starting to lean toward some kind of fuel pump problem. Went out this morning and noticed both voltage meters read 14 to 14.2 volts. I thought everything was going to be fine...

    2020 Grady white 330 express sloped roof light mount

    What year 330? When you say roof, I assume you mean hardtop? And for the light, do you mean anchor light? how are you snaking the low voltage wire up there? That also might dictate where that light can go. Depending on what year your boat is, will depend on how much slope ur hardtop has.

    Hairline cracks in forward bilge

    I have some of the same cracks in my bilge in the same area right near the drip tubes through the bulk head. I found in my boat that this was grey gelcoat spray, on top of some foam overspray. I bet if u take a flat head screw driver u can chip up a couple pieces of gel coat. That water is...

    2012 Freedom 255 forward bilge pump

    I get rain water in my bilge from the retractable cleats and the anchor locker. I never understood why Grady does not seal off the anchor locker and put a bow drain in with a little scoop cover..... , than you can rinse ur anchor line. I never liked the idea of getting salt water from the...

    Rocker Switch Fuse - 2009 307

    (I am no longer using the dome light to power the rear spreader lights because I have the new LED dome light) I ran a wire down the hard top support pipe, to one of the two auxiliary rocker switches on the right side of the dash board for the spreader lights. I put in an “in-line” 10 amp fuse...

    Fresh Water Pressure Low

    I use the treatment. At this point the 2009 boat was new to me last year. Unfortunately I know the prior owner did no maintenance. Boat had only 48 hours on a fresh water lake. I kinda have a feeling that filter has been clogged for a while. Anyway I’ll keep an eye on it. If the filter clogs up...
