    What am I looking at? Gulfstream 232

    Those are fuel burn sending units. Don't get rid of those! The readout is on your yamaha gauges

    What am I looking at? Gulfstream 232

    The valve controls waste outlet. Center hose is the pickup from the shi_tank. one hose goes to a deck fitting for dockside pumpout. the other goes to a macerator pump. from there it uses a smaller hose to an underwater thruhull that also has a valve. You also have another valve for water inlet...

    2001 Grady 265 scupper reposition height

    Looks like you went with smaller diameter fittings and hoses. What type of new fittings in the deck? Oh! you took out the "wall" in the battery compartment. Like that you got rid of the original recessed tabs. FYI, if you are going to back down, you better have more than the OEM tailgate...

    2001 Grady 265 scupper reposition height

    Looking good. I have a 2000 with the 200 zukes. I did not raise the scuppers. They are only low when full of gas and ice. I've replaced the scuppers and hoses. Its a bitch. I think you could move them up so the new bottom of the hole is where the top of the hole is currently. So ya 1.5 inches

    Battery replacement

    Walmart. Now, I absolutely hate Walmart. But I always buy batteries at Walmart. They have Marine/RV Grp27. They will last 5 years. You'll save $100

    Wrong Way Corrigan

    Its at the top of the screen :p I see so many people trying to run a boat with the chart on Heading'Up. Chart spins around when trying to find a wreck. Just stupid.... I change their setting and they say wow what did you do? So if you are on East coast, the left side of the screen is home, the...

    video for trimming outboard engine. Put tabs up and don't touch them. Learn to run with motor. Then learn tabs if you need them.

    IDK the specs on a '95 272. Add the motors, fuel , ice, gear and hardtop and the 265 is close to 10k in the water. 9'7" beam. its a heavy boat. Motors are on the transom. no set-back, no bracket. My 2000 has a 22 degree deadrise(another reason it doesn't like to go slow) They clear the water...

    1995 Sailfish 272 Repower. Suzuki 200 or 225??

    Once we got the props right, there is no problem out of hole or in a crazy inlet against the tide. The 4 blade props were a must. The zuke i4s are geared differently than any motor you are used to. Running at 5k is normal. You are swinging a bigger prop and have the torque to do it. The 265...

    My 265 is wide and heavy. It carries 250 gal of gas and 300 lbs of ice...often....on 3 hr runs to canyons. I am very happy with the DF200APs. Would DF250APs be faster and get even better fuel economy, yes. But the weight and price are a problem. IMO get the fly by wire. Would you buy a...
