    Must have been a Monday

    It's a 83 seafarer but this is factory wiring. There is no way anyone would run wiring like this in there own boat. If they do they don't need a boat not only dangerous but pure stupid

    Must have been a Monday

    Started my total rewire and to be honest Grady has disappointed me. Look at this wiring . This runs in the port side windshield to the anchor light. Sad sad sad can't wait to see what's next.

    Should I addTrim tabs

    Well its the older hull design and was built as a inboard so with adding 4' 5' to the back seems like it would get a bit unstable in certain sea conditions that trim tabs could repair

    Should I purchase this 2012 Yamaha F250

    Ok here is my dilemma, I'm refurbishing a 1983 seafarer and converting it from I/O to a outboard with a bracket. I'm on a tight budget and have a opportunity to purchase a 2012 f250X yamaha for 3k. Reason it's this cheap is it's fouling spark plugs at around 10 hrs. This guy has been nothing...
