    Finally wet!

    Congrats! Make sure you clean the intake screen on the pickup inside the tank. Also, on the backside bottom of the reservoir, there is an inline filter that can get clogged as well. Good Luck

    Airmar 175 HW similar

    Get in touch with Semperfi on "The Hull Truth" he is very knowledgeable and has good pricing. I purchased a 175hw for my 228 and it is a fantastic transducer for seeing what's in the water column.

    Dodge Ram ecodiesel for towing a 228?

    I tow my 228 all over with a 2014 f150 ecoboost with the tow package. It does not bat an eye at the 7k lbs and stops with out any issues. I would not hesitate to use the eco diesel as a tow rig for your 228.

    New style cockpit drains

    If the old hose is stuck on the brass thru hull fitting, use a dremel with a round blade (carefully) to cut the hose off the fitting. Make sure you really pay attention as not to damage the thru hull fitting, it worked great.

    Decal Question

    I was hoping you would reply, thanks. What did you use to buff out the hull and top side of your boat? Also, I am guessing you removed all the wax where the decals go prior to installing them? Did you wax over them after installation, any other tips you could share before I install them? Thanks

    Decal Question

    I am doing this at the moment on my 228. The erasure wheel works well, but be ADVISED that you can easily burn your gel coat. I used the erasure wheel for about 3 feet and it works, but now I have to wet sand out some burn marks that will not buff out. I ended up using a heat gun (carefully)...
