    Cabin Cushion Set Recover

    Put the cushion in a trash bag, with the bag opening opposite side from the zipper. Stick the shop vac hose in the end of the bag, and suck it down. Hold the bag closed until you get the cushion in, and pull the bag out of the zipper opening.

    Thru-Hull Intake Strainers

    Chances are about 99% that those two valves shown are NPT threads on both ends, judging by the amount of thread showing on the thru hull. They screw on about two turns and jam, and make a very poor connection. You need a seacock with NPS straight threads, that will screw down a couple of inches...

    New digs for my Seafarer!!

    Since you have the house garage for your truck, I assume that you will park the boat just inside the door, and use the back half for work space. Hope everything else works out.

    blacl oak low profile light bar on a 257

    If you must use a light bar, you want it low enough, and far enough back from the front edge, that the top shields the front of the boat from any direct light, which will kill your night vision.

    Google Ads

    The big blue "Click Here to Continue" box locks up my computer, and directs me to call Apple support to unlock. Only a shutdown and a re-start clears it, so I predict that things like that, along with the ads, will be the death of this site, at least as far as new recruitment is concerned.

    8 original hours on 2008 GW and Yamaha 200 questions

    If the owner was like most of us, those 8 hours would have happened in the first 2 days. Unless a read-out tells you differently, the boat has likely sat for about 16 years. I would still be interested.

    Seat Bracket

    It may be, but I can’t see where it is actually broken. The plastic bushing is definitely worn out, and the bracket has been tightened to the max to compensate. Would a new plastic bushing solve your problem?

    Yamaha wire bundle won’t go in rigging tube

    That sort of what I was thinking, except maybe tie the battery bundle in behind the new plug, and pull both at the same time. Cut a small hole in an old sock, run your pull cord through it, put the sock over the end of the bundle, soak it with lube and pull it through.
