Looks great. Couple questions, though its hard to tell from the pic. It looks like the bang cap where I circled is tweaked a little bit? Also is that a crack on the SB side, also where I circled? Also I didnt circle it, but looks like a crack around the trim tab pocked on the SB side as...

As you can see from the manual, there is a box that list the other oils if FC-W is not available.

Yeah, its not the cheapest by any means. My aluminum northriver was probably close to what you were paying, but I was with Allstate for that boat. As mentioned, the main reason for the change with how far I was allowed to go offshore with Allstate. I think I even checked with Progressive, and...

I pay $136 a month on a declared value of 80K. That is their Masterpiece "Select" policy.

This was his post on here on his transom replacement. https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/transom-on-2007-marlin.33206/ When I insured mine with Chubb last year, even the agent was familiar with the Grady transom issues, and the coverage they provided for them. From the Chubb brochure "Loss...

I have mine through Chubb. While its probably a bit more than the ones listed above, the coverage is some of the best, imo. I have my 265 insured for a stated value of 80k, which also includes the trailer. They also have coverage for manufacturer design defects. I know someone who had their...

Did Yamaha make a 6 cylinder 200 4 stroke in 2001? I don't think ive seen a 2001 265 with original 200s on it. It's always been 225s or 250s 2 strokes on the 00-01 years. The issue is going to be the weight. Grady did a slight redesign in 2003 I believe, where they raised the scupper height...

I was able to reuse my ram when I went from OX66 250's to the zuke 200's. I sold my OX66's to a guy in Alaska that was building a gold dredging barge. He thought I was selling them for cheap, said everything up there is more expensive. Though I did have to haul them up to Seattle to get put on...

I would suspect that when he is weighted down with people in the back, the water is getting into the motor well area from the motor well drains. May need to replace the flaps on those as well or make sure they "close" flush.

This was earlier this year. The guy stole the boat and could have easily lost his life. Check out some of the other CG training videos from the Columbia, pretty crazy.

Should have let me know you were coming. Im about an hour east of Astoria. We get over that way every couple of weeks or so for dinner. I cross the Columbia river bar fairly often, and yes, it is no joke. Considering its almost 6 miles wide at the mouth, it has an enormous current. It can...

Not to be the devils advocate here but try calling an automotive dealer of any manufacturer and try to find any sort of interior trim pieces on an 18-year-old vehicle. Whether its door panels, seat covers, etc., I can almost guarantee they won't have it or be able to supply you with any...

Good price, should sell quickly.

How much are you wanting for it?

I bought my 2000 265 for 32k last year. Spent just under 40k for the repower. Sold the OX66 250s i pulled off for 6500, sold the 9.9 kicker for 1500, so I recouped some of that cost. Then all the electronics upgrades I've done, but also sold the old stuff and recouped some of that cost as...
