When I bought my boat last summer Yamaha was offering 5 years included in the purchase. I'm glad to hear that the 200s are a good reliable motor.

I dropped by my local GW showroom today where they had a 235, 255, and 285 on the floor. Single 300 on the 235, dual 200's on the 255, and dual 300s on the 285. The price difference in the new 235 and the 285 would be over +$200K. It's $100K more than I paid for my well equipped 275 so I'm...

I had the entire boat detailed and waxed topside and hull. I bought the boat new last summer and it had had nothing but routine rinsing and wipe downs since new. I had the detail and wax done when I unwrapped it. I'm near Annapolis on the Chesapeake.

The boat looks great but I guess I’ll see how it holds up over this year.

Has anyone here tried this product and if so what are your thoughts? I had my boat detailed today and this is the product they used.

What's the wisdom on here about ceramic coatings on boats? I'm very happy with the result on our car which we had done when brand new. My Freedom 275 has had one season on it with just normal wash downs. I'm wondering if the expense results in a more maintenance free and easy cleaning result.

I haven't spent any time on a 235 but I did compare the 255 and 275 which are not significantly noticeable in cockpit space.

The 255 is just about the same size as my 275 (inside the cockpit of the boat) and I looked at it but my criteria was two engines. With a pair of 200s on the back of a 255 it just made sense to go ahead and buy the 275 w/the 200s on it. It jumps up on plane pretty quick and still has a very...

I winterized and shrink-wrapped the boat on our lift in mid-December and have left it on shore power charge all winter. My previous boating experience years ago was to put our Sea Ray on the hard in December and being one of the last boats in, was one of the first out at April 1. As previously...

I get that for the wet systems on the boat. I went looking for the temperature range for my Garmin 8616 and other nav electronics and can't find anything in the manuals that states a range. I'm not sure what the internal battery technology is on some of these things or if they have batteries...

I've got my 2024 Freedom 275 shrink wrapped and winterized on a lift at my home on the Chesapeake. All my water related systems have been flushed with the pink antifreeze. It's been plugged in to shore power for about a month and my plan was to leave it plugged in until I commissioned it in...

I've got a friend with a 10 year old Freedom 335 that's in need of some stitching repair and looking for someone to do the job. He keeps finding that they just want to replace the entire cushion and he'd like to see if it can be repaired. Anyone know of someone that is skilled in these kinds...

My apologies, I should have been more specific. This is a new 2024 boat with about 35 hours on it (only 10 hours since the first oil change). I think I'm going to add a double dose of StaBil360 to the tank, run it for a few minutes, and call it good. I've already winterized the fresh water...

My GW Freedom 275 is on a lift off the Chesapeake Bay where it gets pretty cold here for a few months starting in December. I've been using the boat up until this week and have winterized the fresh water systems on the boat but haven't yet done anything to the engines before my scheduled shrink...

Thieves are smarter than that. Air Tags require any apple phone to be nearby to communicate its position. They'll make sure that no one on their crew has an iPhone and they'll make sure that wherever they take it there is no one around with an apple device that can communicate where the air...

<*crickets*> It's a new boat and I've never used the head on it or the raw water systems for the wash down hose or the live well. So really it was just the fresh water system that I emptied and put a couple of gallons of the pink stuff in in the reservoir followed by running the fresh water...

Email sent with offer and questions. Wes

I'm interested. Can I get a few more photos of it from the rear? How well does it keep debris from blowing in to the cockpit area? I'm in Annapolis MD.

Anyone have a review they can offer on Diversified Marine?

I'm a new boat owner having purchased my Freedom 275 from Tri-State Marine this past summer. I keep the boat on my home dock lift and I'm looking in to scheduling my end of season services to include detailing/waxing, winterization, and shrink-wrapping it on my lift. I'd love to hear any...
