    Access panel removal behind electronics

    email GW. they'll tell you exactly what's there. i had to remove the cabin side covers on my wipers and they sent this pic of the fasteners. probably same for you. didn't give easily so i had to reconfirm with them that they required some leverage to pop them off. good luck, ron

    Deal gone south

    agree on cross border. but a bank check should clear almost immediately. that said, i personally wouldn't transact with a private seller/buyer for anything more than a few hundred dollars. i don't rust anyone anymore.

    30’ Marlin height.

    not sure where you are located, but bridge clearances are normally charted at MHW. we have about a 5 foot tide around me so a Marlin would make it under a bridge of that clearance by me at low water. 2cents. good luck, ron

    sealed batteries???

    Yamaha service bulletin couple years ago "approved" AGM. so most likely a "not recommended" prior to that. if you know a Yamaha tech you could probably get a copy. not sure where mine is.

    Upgrade to hydraulic or electric steering systems

    you might want to check out the Optimus electrics and see what works with what autopilots. you will just run with steering control for autopilot, not full engine control like the Helm Master. can't hurt to do the research. good luck, ron

    Voltage Question

    cannot specifically remember the voltage, but i believe my '09 F350s maxed at 13.6v. the more load the lower the voltage. discussion with tech indicated the F350's were built that way. they don't spin up. maybe one of yours also received an updated alternator. Current F300's are pumping...

    Yamaha F350 flywheel?

    it's actually a lot longer than it sounds. and if memory is good, i think it's 3800 to 4000. it's clocked with the new ECM. traded mine in with about 800 or so hours. ran fine. ron
