Appreciate the update. I'll be following. I'm assuming you have raw and freshwater, live well, cockpit light, etc.

Being a 222 owner I have to say - pictures or it isn't happening! Good luck

Appreciate the reply Ryan.

Do any of you guys have a bow mounted trolling motor on this model or something similar? Looking for input, feedback, do's and don'ts. Thanks for the replies!

Skippy, While you're in there you might as well replace the fuel line and sending unit gasket. Not a difficult or expensive task just for the piece of mind.

I've got the same boat. Replaced wash down and a few bulbs. Need to do tilt/trim seals on my Yam 225 4s. PM me if you need wiring pics etc. as I have the boat here at the house.

Great fit and finish. I'm willing to bet that they knocked it down flush, filled and covered with angle. Very well executed, Thx for sharing

......appreciate that. Thx so much.

Sdfish, 2 quick questions for you regarding this, - Is that white stuff just 5200 or the like and not a "shim" like in the other bang cap thread? - Can you provide another picture showing how the vertical elements are terminated? Thx in advance

My understanding is that if it's reading full it's either an open circuit, no resistance, or a bad ground. Check and clean the ground first then check the resistance of the gauge. The make and model number should be on the top so you can then research what values you should have. Please...

Well since I pulled the boat and drug it back to the house I was able to get some small things done that I haven't been able to get done down at the coast. - Install GW factory overhead/spreader light as supplied by ECU1984 here on the forum. Can't say enough good things about him and the light...

Get yourself an Edson comfort grip wheel now with a spinner with this upgrade..........You'll think you've died and gone to heaven. It's on the top of my list this off season rehab.

Call Matt Conrad from The Hull Truth. He's buys and sells quality used Yamaha outboards all the time. I know he's going to point you in the right direction.

I miss my F-26. So glad to hear that an another actual owner has nothing but real world positive things to say. Keep her in great shape and she'll treat you right. And you're right, these are probably the best riding boat I've ever owned. Post up some pictures for all to see.

I had twin 200 Evinrude Direct Injection 2004 models on my old boat. New boat has 225 Yamaha 4 stroke and won't have anything but from now on. My advice to you is Yamaha 4S. Also Suzuki is big with the commercial guys and some but not most of the guides locally. It really depends on the area...

that's looking real good, like NEW good!

DennisG, Solid information. FWIW I think I'll go back to the incandescent bulbs in my navigation fixtures and keep the LED's in my cockpit lights until I change the fixtures to LED specific. Thx for your detailed reply.

silicone is the way to go here.

I also replaced the mast bulb (all around white) and it is my opinion that the are more recognizable as navigational lights versus the "softer/dimmer/warmer" incandescent type bulb. Pics when it warm up.

I recently added LED bulbs to the cockpit lights and nav lights. Here are some before and after pictures.
