Continuing on this Saga; talking to Yamaha rep at boat show he told me to make sure other tanks than the one in use need to be marked unused. Ok that I have had all the time. Then he said the calibration need to be made (remember I flipped between ABYC and Yamaha type senders) since I may have...

Update; went to boat show and spoke to Grady folks. So I opened the livewell pump top, pulled it out and could look down the valve and see it operating properly and pouring some water in it drained out of pump. So not a valve or lack of water issue. then I looked at impeller and ran pump...

I assume the Livewell on my boat has never been used. Tried it out and pump ran when seacock open but no water showing up. Put boat in wash rack and set up hose to clamshell under boat and opened seacock, ran pump, NO water. Opened plastic "NUT" on pump lower side tried again with water and...

Remember to reconnect ALL wires and cables as one ground missing can make a hell of a difference .........How do I know?? A thin ground for Helm master was left loose, could not even see it and NOTHING worked properly. And yes all battery issues are a pain regardless of boat. Reading all about...

Used boats have gremlins taken care of. If they are well cared for they are a good deal. If they show poor maintenance (look for rust spots etc ) walk away right away. Electronics will cost say close to 10k for a set. All of that said 2018 vs 2023 is a 5yr difference. On the warranty side that...

I Have two 16 in Raymarine Axiom Pro and can say it is an upgrade from 12 in screens at age 72 etc..... I also have Autopilot and Radar (Qantum) that helps with following weather development as well. The Autopilot is connected to the Axiom but I also have a separate Autpilot control that I...

I have no idea about the conversion requirements so I'm really just asking questions to be able to assess the possibility to switch when I need to replace the current set of 4 batteries. 1. Do the motors alternators satisfy the charging requirements? 2. Do the standard pro mariner 50A support...

I have a 335 and the grill is Kenyon and my 5kw Panda is more than sufficient for the grill. I looked at my consumption chart and concluded that I can run many of the appliances at the same time, maybe not all but ex microwave and grill I would not use simultaneously out of caution. On...

No, the charger is direct wired to batteries.

I've been reading with interest and the only thing that would make sense is that the prop hubs are slipping. Both of them is plausible after all they have been through the same time/process. It is hard to test yourself for incremental slip so take them to a prop shop and test them. Good luck...

Stored in marina with cat 5 closed door rack storage with no history of any theft???? I would love to see statistics over boat thefts and common denominators for them. Maybe a cross reference to cars with more wheels!! Would work, all have just one engine except electric cars with one or more...

There are two kinds, electronic over hydraulic (hybrid) and all electric. On my 2019 I have the el/hydraulic and it is sensitive to low battery voltage and with triples I have three separate hydraulic pumps so when one goes out there is a complicated (not only because the units being almost...

Call them up, they are very helpful and the tech team is now in Atlanta area after Yamaha bought the company. Great group is my experience.

I can tell you for sure that the insurers are not friendly for triples. I got quoted an insane amount for my 2019 335 with 3x300 and ended up with an agreed value rather than replacement. I don't understand why that would be except for speed which these boats are not doing. The 350's of later...

The odor can travel under the gunvale, it is I assume open all the way. When I peeked into locker there is a drain at bottom leading to forward bilge, otherwise the entire area is open through the gunvales. I let all my rode out and was surprised to find it all dry and flexible but I really...

Just ordered both 6in and 8in sets. Taking a risk but asssume they will work as my current gaskets turned out to be kind of dried out, probably never lubed. h

Right about condensation issues. I wake up in the morning with all house windows covered in condensate on the outside as the indoor temp is so low compared to outdoor and dew point. AC vents are blowing towards windows as well!!! On the boat yes no E10 around marina either and temp variations...

Since it is only one motor it is in that motors fuel line. Since bulb is quashed the blockage is between tank and bulb or in bulb itself. If there is only one feed that splits to three (two?) filters then problem would seem to be between inlet to filter and end of bulb. So either filter or bulb...

I try to always rinse with fresh water when I lift anchor. I have a hose attached to fresh water just at the anchor compartment door. That does anyway leave it wet but my boat is kept in rack indoors (in humid FL) and this thread reminds me to pull it all out and let it dry in sun. Would it...

How do you use the bladder? DO you have a transfer pump or do you have a direct connection/valve to fuel supply line? h
