Thank you for the help. I did get a new filter and pump sensor for both tanks. It might not need then but when we head for Florida for thanksgiving week I want it fixed. The sensors were alittle over ahundred dollars a piece. Buy the time I take it to water run it for three hours I have gone...

great answer thanks, I was wondering a what point are you in trouble. The sea can change quickly despite a perfect forecast . I have no prob fishing when the seas are 4-6 but would prefer 2-4 if we are burning gas. 4-6 are not much fun. The gulf stream is a great boat but she does have her...

I was looking at a pair of honda 135 2 stroke was told by several dealers i would not be happy with them.(not enough power) I will say I do not need the 225s i put on either.

What I have been told is that if your remote sensor goes bad your warning lights will flash. If your main goes bad it will not set off the alarms on the tach? 9 times out of ten your main is the one to go bad(info from yamaha tech)Been researching alot and greatly appreciate everyones impute.

Thanks I am going to replace res sensors I think this is a good place to start sense the res was full on Sat when the alarms went off. I also ordered new head gaskets, thermostats, water pumps. poppet valve. Going threw the cooling system would not hurt sense i have not owned the motors long...

yes It does have a remote oil res. I was told that if you could hear the pump working when manualy filling it was good? The previous owner had the same problem with the 150s same side. (lead me to think it was the pump)My only issue is that the res was full on Saturday when the alarm was going...

I filled the res manually using the switch(could hear the pump running) I am thinking of replacing the oil filter,thermostat, taking heads off and cleaning them,new water pumps, and something else plusreplacing low oil switch.(i think this is my issue). Fresh water flushed today no water coming...

Forgot the power trim sometime goes crazy then will not respond. I lost confidence in marina when I explained issue there response was it could not be brought back to there shop it had to go to employes house to be worked on. They would be happy to fix it though

I have had a ongoing issue with my new to boat repower. Here is the skinny, runs for a hour or two hit a wave hard starboard alarm goes off and powers down. Checked oil res. almost empty manually filled it. Alarm gone. took it to a marina to have the once over ,replaced fuse box and several...

I am trying to educate on the gulfstream as well. My other boats are very easy. 23 ft bay boat, 340 sea ray, ski nautique. Ten foot waves a joke? Not really I do not plan on going out in ten foot swells but if 50 miles out stuck in a storm will she make it?(currently looking for a used life...

How rough of seas can the gulfstream take?? I realize it depends on the captain. I am concerned about taking my family out 30 miles and getting stuck in rough seas. I repowered her with twin 225 ox66. Tops out around 50, Cruises around 33, better be setting down when you take off. She is avery...

I went ahead and had the 225 installed. I will be sure to post pics mon of boat. I am going to end up in the 14,000 range when done. I was trying to to better but still alot of boat for the money. Was hoping to get acouple years out of the motors.It has a hard top,full enclosure, raytheon l755...

Thanks for the response. The 225 EFI are a two stroke. I would of preferred 200 s but the 225 were there and I felt the boat would handle them. I am not sure about liability my correct craft is over manufactures hp as well but is easily hid. I will have to look into this thew. I picked it up in...

Well gents took her out today blew a trim tap seal. Lost one cylinder on port side. I will have it repowered next week with two 2001 Yamaha EFI 225. They test at 105-110 are clean and price is good. I did not pay much for they boat compared to what it is worth after repower I will still have...
