    Yamaha wire bundle won’t go in rigging tube

    Disconnect the battery one running in the rigging tube, hook pull rope to it, pull it out. Pull new harness through tube, re-pull battery cable back and hook back up.

    I agree with Fishtales. I went with Coastal Night Lights LED. Been doing business with them for awhile.

    Grady 228G bump rail replacement

    Take some acetone and a bunch of rags and start wiping it down, keep changing rags because it will be nasty. After it's cleaned up, use some 303 protectant on it, might surprise you how it turns out.

    1997 vintage 16-903 panel switch needed - where to find?

    Like Hookup1 suggested, might want to consider an updated panel. I found that some of my original breakers were undersized for the newer accessories hooked to them, namely my bilge pump. I had New Wire Marine build me a new panel and very pleased with the final product.

    Another thing I did was change out my engine decals to the raised chrome ones. Blends well with the logos.

    When is it time to change fuel tanks?

    I went back to the original manufacturer, Florida Marine Tanks. I road tripped to Henderson NC and picked them up. Made a trip out of it and hit A&J Canvas and Grady-White factory while I was in North Carolina.

    When is it time to change fuel tanks?

    Don't know if I'm 100% watertight, but I did change out all my inspection ports to screw-in instead of the pop in. Had to help mitigate some of the water from hitting the top of the tank and the sending unit areas.

    When is it time to change fuel tanks?

    Time-line for my 2004 Seafarer. Bought in April of 2017, no issues, no fuel smell through the rest of '17. First part of '18 was ok, late '18 started smelling fuel in bilge. Investigation revealed the sending unit flange on auxiliary tank was severely corroded and leaking with a full tank...

    Same as what I did. Removed 2004 stripes and replaced with 2022 stripes at the time. Much cleaner look with the updated stripe package.

    Can anyone help me find Grady White decals

    Kind of a gunmetal blue, ties in to the Yamaha blue of the motor nicely. It's also just plastic, not stainless, with a chrome finish. I don't have any good close up pics of the color.
