Appears a little high. 350 hours is like new, but no trailer or hardtop is like a 10K deduct easy.

So my 98 Marlin had a 500GPH live well pump that needs replacement. Any harm/benefit to increasing that to 800 or 1100 GPH The live well worked pretty good with 500, kept about 10-15 big mackerel all day. Would the stronger pump create too much turbulence ?

1-screen name, Harpoon 2-your first name, Phil 3-year and model of your boat, 98 Marlin 4-year and the power that you have on your boat Twin Yam F225, 2003 I cant seem to remove the Gulf Stream from my profile.

If you've done all those maintenance items, I'd add LP pumps to the list. They are cheap and should be considered a service-item. What's odd here is your fuel burn.... you've not changed props? You aren't taking on water weight ?

Alas the microwave in my 98 marlin has died. Anybody know a suitable replacement ? It was in fact a microwave sold for boat use. Manufactured in 1997- but probably never took a beating like the past season and a half ... LOL Thanks in advance- worst case scenario i'll us the space for...

I had a Mako CC I bought on Cape Cod that continually took on water, after re plumbing everything, I did a thorough sanding and found a crack in the about the same area. In my case there appeared to be no layup just resin that had cracked long ago. It wasn't such a difficult fix as there is...

This is not an uncommon finding on Grady's. I think there is a very thin core used in the sides, likely thinner than the combination of layup on either side. I've had a couple opinions from surveyors on this for boats I was looking at, 1 is doom and gloom the other was "just run it" - in his...

I saw an older gray that was all re-trimmed with white pvc. It looked ok.

Mix color matched gelcoat into a paste with cabosil.... it works dam good.

If you were having trouble with the hole shot... why go up in pitch, seems odd. But I suspect those torquey zukes are giving you LIFT that previous motors didn't. Also we'd be assuming you are trimmed all the way down prior to coming up on plane ...

I bought a set of Florida motors and shipped them north last year- 2003's with fairly high hours that were like brand new regarding corrosion. The owner trailered and was clearly a rinsing and maintenance nut. He serviced everything and had pictures of the midsection work. I put 200 hours on...

jump power and ground to it with test leads and see if it works.

Will that disassemble for shipping ?

I'd almost bet he had water in his hull that he wasn't aware of. Those conditions were a little sporty but typical for many inlets and shouldn't have posed that much of a challenge. I tend to ease off on the way down and angle slightly into the oncoming to avoid stuffing the bow.....

So just a hunch because I see this whenever I go to a ramp. It may be that your trailer is backed in too deep when loading. When this happens the bow often doesn't get immediately cradled by the rear rollers or bunks. I generally like the rear roller (or rear of the bunk) to be just at or...

I have a friend looking for one in the Northeast for a 33 express

Bow Thruster, Auto Pilot add some value

My buddy has a Milwaukee 18V cordless polisher, expensive but cool

Stored properly (winter) and well maintained- it wont necessarily need replacement

I bet the outboard rigging tubes would work well too.
