So you are saying there is no Temp displayed or the Temp looks like --.- ° ? B75 has XID Does it identify and display the B75H as the transducer at the bottom of the sonar screen? You can find pinouts and diagrams here https://www.airmar.com/xref I would definitely suspect a "green" pin...

Thanks for the pix. Thinking of very similar mount on my 265. Any difficulty deploying/stowing with it out there? Your location lets you keep the cleat AND the light in place. Excellent!

I like daydreaming and spending other peoples money...so.. :p Honestly, I look at that dash layout and think "that could not have been more poorly laid out". They should have put the switches to the right and left a big space for a 12" MFD. There is nothing on your dash that can't be moved...

As Denis said, get installation template on Garmin site. Here are screen shots of 7" + 9" but on their site you can Print in actual size to get your real template. https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?partNumber=010-02365-61&tab=manuals If you can fit a 9 get a 9. This is an "oppurtunity" to...

You can just have the marina do it and pay them what they want. its going to be $$$ for labor. You can get an exact replacement or something nicer. Thats going to be $$$. After thats done, it will turn green and look crappy in only a couple of years. You can do it yourself and save $$$. If...

Would have liked to see a set of the new lightweight v6 mercs on a 265. Several have talked about it but haven't seen it yet. They were first year when I was looking so no history. And it was covid and yu couldn't get them. Merc is brunswick corp so I imagine the Navico/Lawrence/Simrad stuff...

Great video. Thanks for taking the time. Replacing the existing Groco stuff is the simplest way for a DIY. IDK if I missed it but there is usually a switch and breaker for the macerator on the dash panel or DC panel. Or there is a fuse. There are many posts here on Great Grady regarding...

It exists somewhere. Its not in their brouchures, that I could find, so it must be in an installation or owner's manual. You can't make assuptions based on your Yamahas. Also, read through my Suzuki DF200AP post and pay attention to the Steering cylinder and Tie bar placement issues that I ran...

Do you have this diagram but for 3.4L V6 mercury?

I can't imagine any motor having problems with the fold down tailgate. Somewhere there is a manual that will show all of the dimensions and the swing of the v6 motor

Aussie, we are all anxiously awaiting more from your project!

I have not got around to it but I'm planning to put a flat step where the wiper was. If you ever try to work on your hardtop you will understand how slippery that slope is... Also, kicking around a plan to have "washer" hose aimed from hardtop to front isenglass. To rinse with fresh water when...

That looks different than mine, but my tanks were replaced so they probably took that piece out and replaced it with something. I’ll have to look around for a picture. My boat is covered up for the winter right now. Question. Did you check the dates on the tanks to see if they have been replaced...

Paying for a new 120 gallon tank just to keep it filled, so it doesn't go bad, seems kinda silly... :rolleyes: If they seem to be good, wait a year or two, spread out the pain... If you are repowering and fixing a transom, you are committing to 10 years or more? You will eventually need the...

Its nothing special to Grady. Just a 12v dc wiper. Try to source an Aussie one that fits. Brands like Marinco, AFI, Seadog. Once you install it you will realize that you can't see anything through the windshield on a 265 anyways... The electronics bubble blocks the view out windshield. I...
