I'm still playing with engine height but I'm WOT 42.5mph, fast cruise 4900 @35mph at 1mpg, slow cruise (slow for me) 4500 @31mph, 1.2/1.3mpg. I have verados with 1.85 lower units. I'm running 17p enertia ecos, engines mounted at the very highest position. oceandansar gets better numbers with...

having it "lean" back like it is makes it look professional and not like some dude just made it. I really like it!!

merc v8 250 is also pretty light, not much more than your current 3.3L yamahas. If the boat is rated for 500hp, those engines would make it very fun. Lots of torque. you'd also gain some transom room. tall and skinny engines vs. the 3.3. I just replaced 3.3L 225 yam four strokes with 300...

wow that looks great! I'd love to fully enclose my 330 like that. can't stand the canvas and can't afford 500k for a newer one that has the full enclosure already lol

I had installed on my 330 express and have 2 full seasons on it. I use the salt water washdown to hose off fish blood as it happens. I’d do that with regular nonskid anyway. With that said, if find it easy to clean. Most stains come out with a standard garden hose nozzle. I did the storm...

I’m underwhelmed by the fact it’s not a v8 as I think a lightweight small displacement 8 cylinder provides a ton of grunt and good economy in this siclass … but the f300 is pretty legendary and if this new engine is similar, then it will make a lot of 330 express owners happy when it’s repower...

I’m Kevin. And yes, next time I see you I’ll do more than just wave lol

Small world! I had 225’s. I also gained about 7mph pretty much everywhere- cruise, WOT. She moves pretty good. It needs to, I come from Sayville and it’s a long ride. I go there 3-4 times a season. My brother-in-law lives on old neck creek off the forge river and he’s a regular at Gunn.

Do you go to great Gunn? I have the dark gray 330 with 300 white mercs. Think we have waved to each other a few times. You anchor out over there? Unless I have the wrong person.

The guy I bought my ‘04 330 from replaced it with a 2020 330 express. We keep in touch and he loves those 425’s

I think any expert in any field would be a little dubious about a product which makes the kind of claims that sharrow does.

It goes against everything i've ever read on engine height. However, my antiventilation plates look to be perfect yet my boat is slower than others with same power. Not by a lot. losing 2-3mph. I may lower them down this winter. I can always put it back.

could this be because of the deep v at transom with the large spread between the engines?

I’d get new switch covers from new wire marine. Laser etched and the words light up instead of translating the hieroglyphics. You can do that whole panel for about a hundred bucks. You can also custom label switches. My Grady came with the fuel gauge select switch as “acc1.” I had one...

You won’t find many, if any, factory performance reports for a 330 with f300’s….best you will do is what you already did- seek out others with repowered boats. Seems the 330 went from 3.3l 250’s, skipped the 300, and went straight to the F350v8. with that said, I have noted a few things...

...and I was out in legit 6-9 footers!

Who's the guy in the grady only going in circles?

Starting to close the loop. New plan. Turns out my 2004 ACR light had some issues... I know, very shocking lol. one bulb out which is ok but the up/down motor rusted up and seized. priced a new motor and it's like 400 bucks so I picked up a small ACR RCL-95 light. Instead of the pulpit, I...

The wires the starboard hard top locker on my 04 are connected to a fuse block the locker itself. That fuse block is controlled by the breakers on the port side just inside the cabin door. VHF,radar, search light. or are you saying those wires I speak of are there and yiu are seeing...

Before you ever do anything with chrome, no matter how bad it is.... always try cleaning it first. surprising how much crap comes off if you try. I'd hit it with neverdull if they still make it- or some other chrome polish. If it's truly pitted, you probably won't resolve that, but if you...
