    300 with 2 mfd

    Is the boat a Marlin 300? If so, what year? Based on what I have seen for newish years of Marlins, two 12 inch screens will fit. I don't think 2- 16s would

    Does the 300 model have a drain in the anchor locker

    I would expect a drain. Typically there is either a hull drain out the side or direct drain to bilge. If the former, you should see a small clamshell fitting on the hull near the locker above the water line. Some models drain the locker by routing water into the bilge. In that case it may be...

    Transom thru hole

    Save the old gaskets and use them with the new ones to add some space between the flop and the tube edge.

    Battery Conditioner Recommendations?

    Here is a NOCO receptacle, that accepts a plug from the charger(no cutting the plug off). The unit is basically water proof on the outside and is less expensive than Marinco. I Believe it comes in black or white...

    Seaport Blue

    Is the hull gel coat or is it paint?. I suggest you call Grady support and tell them your problem. The whitish stains are odd but may be amine blush which would be an issue with hull prep prior to painting, color,gel coating or during hull layup. The issue may be covered by the hull warranty...

    Gel coat repair 228G 1994

    You didn't say if the areas were smooth or if they are non skid. The later is more difficult to repair but it is possible to replicate the pattern. You can get patch paste from Spectrum Color for your hull but after all these years, it will not match. You can go nuts matching the color using gel...

    Circuit Breaker

    It looks like your accessory feed that supplies power to just about everything except always hot loads like auto bilge pumps. You can't easily trip it using the button. That is for reset if it pops. If you shorted out the positive and negative feeds to your fuse block, it should pop but I don't...

    Battery Conditioner Recommendations?

    The NOCO Genius is a good product. Regarding location, although the unit is rated for 'wet' environments, a dry location should be selected. The cable lengths of the charger leads is six feet I f I remember correctly so keep that in mind. Finally you also need to plan on the AC connection...

    Battery Configuration and Size

    It could be the tilt motor. If you unbolt the two from the pump at the relay you can connect them to a good ground and a good 12V feed. The polarity doesn't mater. One way will run the motor one way and the other way will run the motor in the opposite direction. Do this after you verify that the...

    Spark Plug Maintenance on Yamaha 2 Strokes

    I do have an electronic copy of the Yamaha generic service manual for SX motors including your 200. The file is about 10 Mb and may or may not be emailable. It depends on your email sizing limits. Send me your email either on this forum ( everybody will know it!) or PM me with it.

    Spark Plug Maintenance on Yamaha 2 Strokes

    I find the Seloc manuals to be decent and in some cases more detailed than the OEM manual. It probably not realistic to expect to find a 'new' 1998 service manual. That said, I may have an electronic version of the manual. If I find it, I will private message you to get your email address.

    2008 305 Express for sale

    I think that brokers may not agree with your 'asking' price. It is in the range for that model and year but there are a few potential negatives. If a broker mentions these, I would have a better feeling that the broker knows what he or she is doing. To me without seeing the boat would be...

    Battery Configuration and Size

    If the motor does not 'intermittently' crank over when started, I would think that the cables from the battery and switch are fine since the starter draws a lot more current than the trim pump. You could have a defective pump motor and The problem 2 years ago does not seem related to your...

    600HP Sailfish #’s

    Without knowing the prop specs, can't say what is likely. What motors are on the boat now? You should of least have information on current config and performance. In addition, what are you looking for e.g. speed hole shot, fuel economy etc?

    Bow Roller for a 1992 Seafarer 22

    A pivoting style bow roller makes it more likely that line will deploy when needed but that is for windlass applications. It doesn't really mater for manual deployment. The question about storage of the anchor when not used is important, If it will be left on the roller, you will need to provide...

    ODB Iscan

    Does anyone have any feedback on the ODB IScan diagnostic product? I am looking for something to work with 2020 F200 XCA . Apparently the Yamaha YDS software is not compatible with that model year. I would prefer something laptop based but haven't found anything that is reasonably priced both...

    Spark Plug Maintenance on Yamaha 2 Strokes

    I think your mechanic needs to read the manual:) There is a difference between installing a new plug as opposed to reusing a plug. In the first case the washer does need to be crushed. The Yamaha manual states that the plugs should be hand tightened and then tightened 1/4 to 1/2 turn. The 1/2...
