    272 Sailfish re power

    Thanks for the info. Correct on the current motors s200 txru @ 420 lbs x 2. Attached is the hull/ transom view. Would definitely like to go with the zukes df200, if I can find a good used pair. Can’t justify 45k for new ones.

    272 Sailfish re power

    I have a ‘96 272 Sailfish with twin 200 2 stroke yamahas that I’m needing to re power. Manual says max 450hp. Does anyone know if that’s for weight reason or transom stability? Also, if anyone has put 250 4 stroke yamahas, did you need new mounting holes drilled and what spacing between...

    96’ 272 Sailfish

    I know I’ve seen something on this but can’t find. Looking to replace a fuel selector valve. They have the 3x 3/8 barbs facing down. Anyone know part #/manufacturer or where to find them? Thanks

    Fuel line

    Sounds like it might be easier to remove the sending unit and look and see if the pickup tube is still attached. Thanks

    Fuel line

    Thanks for your insight. I guess the red is the anti-siphon valve. Does the blue elbow fitting just unscrew from the tank to check the pickup tube?

    Fuel line

    I appreciate your response. I took the decks off and found it’s the one pointed to in yellow. The valve was working so I’m going to pull the line and see if it’s blocked and check the pick up tube.

    Fuel line

    I have a ‘96 272 Sailfish and the starboard engine is not getting gas when the selector is switched to auxiliary tank ( port does). My question is if anyone with similar boat know which hose at the auxiliary tank goes to the starboard selector? Is it the one stern side or bow side?

    272 Sailfish Aux Fuel tank

    Haven’t tested or removed the existing unit so that’s why I haven’t measured. Boat is 3 hrs away and wanted to order one to bring with me next time down. Figured there was someone with the same boat that had already replaced it
