Looks like over tightened fasteners. Repair is usually to route layer of gel coat off and then fill. Non-structural.

If you have a t-top, LaPortes makes a cover called a “console cover”. I bought one for a small Pioneer I had a few years ago. Basically they’re like a shower curtain that hangs from the outer tubing of your top. Doesn’t cover the entire boat obviously, but covered the console, electronics, etc...

I used Caj Flynn years ago to move a smaller Grady from Pompano Beach to Charleston. Did an excellent job at a fair price. All “blowables” were stowed and hatches taped down. Previous owner didn’t have a trailer so they used theirs. I don’t know if he’s still in the business as it was many years...

Perhaps there’s room to move it up a few inches, then patch the old hole. Newer throttle for electronic engines is shorter than what you have and isn’t compatible with your engine anyway. Couldn’t tell from your pic what type of helm seat you have, but if it has a movable bolster put that up as...

If your buddy has a 27’, you need a 285 or 307.

Congrats! Thats nice.

Greetings and welcome! That’s a beautiful part of the country. Idaho was part of my territory when I was based in Phoenix. Most of the industry was down near Boise/Nampa so I’d fly in there and fly out of SeaTac. Usually the last night of the trip would be in Coeur de Alene. I had a customer in...

Normal for it to blink when the motor raised. Sounds like the trim sender lever is stuck.

My local dealer, Seel’s uses “Almond” tinted silicone. Matches the factory color well.

I’ve had decent luck with Tilex. Spray, let sit, scrub, repeat.

Fortunately New Wire is local to me. When I was doing the entire dash panel I pictured above all the switch, breaker, trim tabs, chartplotter, etc. cut outs New Wire had templates for. The 4 corner radii were easy to figure out, but the big sweeping radius at the top of the dash was difficult...

Here’s a panel I had New Wire fab. Basically cut out the entire dash panel except for a 1/2” border to screw the new panel to. Rearranged all the devices, switches, etc and new switch covers also from New Wire.

Aren’t all those locks keyed alike?

Yamaha debuted electronic shift in 2007 on the V8 F350, I believe. I’m not sure when that migrated down in to the lesser HP models.

Can you reach the area from the anchor locker?

If it makes you feel better, Grady still uses those in brand new boats.

Check out Dometic’s website. They own SeaStar. Don’t think they allow diy for their electric steering system, if that’s what you’re interested in.

I went to EW’s site and looked that model over. It does have an unusual layout relative to most DC’s, but looks to be functional and spacious. On my 248, and it looks similar on the 262, that when you lower the port and stern benches they form a continuous “L” shaped seating area. Also, when you...

Two boats ago I had an EdgeWater 248CX. It was an excellent boat. For its size handled seas solidl. No creaks or rattles. Only reason I sold it was it appreciated significantly. Great choice :thumbs up:
