So a lottery win = 7 Marine 627?

I have an '05 225 Tournament, and installed a Stick It brand anchor pin on my boat. Guy at Stick It said my boat is too heavy and it wouldn't work well. He was incorrect as I use it all the time on the 2' - 4' sandbar we anchor at and I've had zero issues with it not holding. Kind of like a poor...

My Dad had the same advice for me when I started dating.....

I did the same with my '05 225 tournament. Moeller 14" arm gauge fit exactly, and gives reliable readings. Just flip up the inspection plate & take a look.

I have the exact same boat...year, except motor is a F225. 414 hours. last speed check I did was 5/5/19...... 37 mph @ 5400 41.4 mph @ 6000 1 person, 1/4 tank of gas, about 88 degrees, very light chop, wind calm all recorded on a GPS (speedo was pretty spot-on though)

I'm of the opinion that if you run a modern 4-stroke, and go through your fuel often (no more than every 2 months or so) PLUS replace WATER separating fuel filters AT LEAST every year or 100 hours, you should be fine. I'd think any outboard designed & built after roughly 2000 is designed to run...

Just picked up a "factory reconditioned" Elite-9 Ti from Lowrance.com. Comes with TotalScan transducer and c-map insight pro. $550! Plus tax of course but free shipping. 1-year warranty as opposed to 2-year with "new" units. nearly 1/2 price over new. Might still be some left.....check it out.

Ky...just did another speed test myself this weekend.....'05 225 Tourney (same hull as yours, probably lighter though). 3-blade 15 1/2 x 17 SS (not in pristine condition) on original '05 F225. Just me (210 lbs), 1/4 tank, 88 degrees. no bottom paint, salt water 37 mph @ 5400 41.4 mph @ 6000...

Likely Pompanette or Wise

I have that seat and have had a 280 lb. guy on it numerous times. Yours must be a big 'ole boy

Hey Russ.....John here. I'm from Katy, with a weekend place in Rockport. '05 225 Tournament. Let me know if you're ever in the Rockport/ Port A area.

The spray hose on the tank is cracked at the point where it attaches to the tank itself, waaaay under the deck . I can feel the break but cannot get to the connector How difficult is it to cut away the oblong, caulked-in floor panel that's right over the area I need to access? Would I just cut...

How did you get the socks to fit so snugly & smoothly? Just ordered them and will install next week. Thanks, John

I got this response from Pompanette earlier this month about the spotted arm rests on my '05 Tournament 225 (same chair as Legend has on his Sailfish) Please see below for pictures of your options. There is a repair kit which is a "skin" which is glued over your existing arm or a complete arm...

I have a Tournament 225....has the usual flip-down rear transom seat. Not sure Grady has a boat over 20' with corner jump seats, if that's what you mean

Thanks Dennis for this reply. I will do this in a couple of weeks when I'm down at the dry stack again... 1) DMM...you mean my multi-meter? 2) Is the BUS bar the electrical "bar" with what looks like a bunch of ground wires (8 or 9) attached all in a row beneath all the other wiring behind the...

My '06 225 Tournament's Yamaha fuel gauge stopped working a few months ago (flashing 1 bar). Finally got around to trouble-shooting this past week.....seems the tank ground is bad, because I can attach a wire to the sender ground at the tank, then to the battery ground and get a correct reading...

I have a Lowrance hook2 9" disoplay in my 225 tornament, fits fine on the stock bracket.
