i just repowered my 265 with 200 zukes and they offer plenty of torque . i would be skeptical on how mercury was able to shave that much weight off their motors recently

congratulations and good luck ! heres a few tips - always start off with the motors down until youre on plane - only use the trim tabs to keep the boat level ( as when people move around the boat etc) -when going offshore , use up aux tank gas first ( boat handles better with the weight of...

hop on a plane over brother , ill take ya fishing this summer !

as i said , i did speak with ken a couple of times he recommmended lsf4 x 16 x 21.... or x20 if we carry a heavy load. last fall i found a guy in Mass. who has a 2001 265 express same as mine and had already repowered w the 200 zukes. he spoke with me and gave me all his performance info and...

hello Steelhead, so far these motors feel good to me. i went from 200 hpdi's so the 4 stroke do seem to have less torque but still not bad, my top speed is 43 mph. this is a few mph faster than what it did prior .these motors are geared to have more torque . i have 4 blade props on mine but...

hello Holokai, thanks,, i spoke to ken a couple of times on behalf of skunk and myself. we repowered at the same time /same place. so far props are good but i do want whats best for the boat. what would be the difference as far as the power tech giving up better "traction" over the suzuki ?

the yamahas are more $ but if you choose to use your existing yamaha guages etc... that could make up for the savings. ill take you for a ride on my boat if youd like to see the suzukis in action.im taking delivery tomo

the more i rolled mine up & down the more it became easier to do learning the ins/outs. with that being said, i would roll it up when traveling for 2 reasons - not to risk damaging or losing any pieces -more aerodynamic....less resistance on your truck

hello. i have a 2001 265 express and repowered with suzuki 200's along with skunkboat. so i test rode my boat on thursday. we were recommended a powertech prop 4x16x20 as Chuck stated,from a 2001 owner i found online who went with the suzukis and is happy with them . but that exact size prop...

hello Pat, what what year do you have and what are you thinking of repowering with ?

the "foam tiles" sounds like a great idea . inexpensive, practical, easy

i have speakers coming thru the overhead box in my 265 also

how was the test run chuck ? the boat is looking real good !

hey Chuck , the motors look great on there so far ! im looking forward to hearing about the performance.

;)

thats why you dont go with the heavier motors and put those scuppers underwater !

do you have a long " no wake" ride back to your slip or do you go back to the slip at low rpm's like trolling speed ?

hello, after 2002 grady made changes to accomodate the weight of 4 strokes. one of the biggest was raising the scuppers. ive " heard" of a couple people putting 4 strokes on without making alterations. the yamaha & suzuki have 4 cylinder 200hp that are bolt on/bolt off replacements for the...

the GE almond color100% silicone is a perfect match , most likely what grady used. you can use kitchen/bath or door/ windows. same stuff ( marked differently for marketing)
