I don’t remember, I would try 800 grit if that doesn’t work then come down to 600 then 400. I recall trying a few different grits before finding the one that worked.

I wet sanded them follow by compound then wax. The top one is the before and the 2 bottom ones are the after .

Had the same issue with Yamlube some of it made it into the oil tank and clogged my inline oil filter the next time I was out on the water. That day of fishing I had to manually fill the engine oil reservoir. I was planning on switching to Pennzoil but now you are making me rethink the idea. So...

I removed the pvc pipe when replacing the tank then reinstalled it with silicon it was pretty easy. The wires in it are for the freshwater washdown pump that you can access from the round plate located under the passenger helm chair.

I did this on my 1999 seafarer 228. No need to cut the bulkhead just cut the top cap that’s on the bulkhead. You have to also grind the lip where the fuel tank hatch sits on to get the tank to slide out( my tank was larger then the opening). I’m assuming your boat is similar to mine. Feel free...

Here is what I did a removable L shape threaded rod works well very responsive in making turns. If you can, post a picture of your setup. In reference to the pilot house. I fish with Luckydude and yep the visibility in his pilot house is amazing.

Can you post a link to where you found it. I need the same exact part.

Thank you, I appreciate all your comments I decided to keep the AGM batteries and give them a try.

I recently replaced my wet cell batteries with AGM batteries (I haven’t used the boat yet). I came across this Yamaha Q&A site that states only to use wet cell batteries. Anyone using AGM batteries on their Yamaha 2 stroke ox 66 with success? Is this Yamaha Q&A ( from 2017) outdated...

New never used, material black Phifertex Vinyl Mesh. I included a photo of what it would look like underneath the hardtop. Location california. Ask $130 will ship on your dime.

Im currently in the middle of testing an ip camera with good night vision. So far I have less then $200 invested in it. I tested the camera in the lake in daylight at different speeds and the lag time is about 1 sec. I was very happy how it performed. Next will be to test it at night that will...

Here is an install on a very similar boat. https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/2023-adventure-218.36491/page-2
