BobP you are wise and all knowing. I just called Grady and they suggested that the voltmeter is probably shot. They advised that I would need to do a retrofit as the voltmeter used in 2005 Marlin's (and I suspect all other models in same year) is no longer manufactured. They gave me the Blue...

Batteries are on. Even turned both sets off, switched 1, 2 both every possible combination. Dock power off. When I throw on off switch back and forth, occastionally I see EEE but then immediately goes to ---. All systems work on battery power. Anyone got any ideas?

That looks great and you have come up with a great solution for a original design disaster. Having just pulled up the deck to do a full service for the generator and replace the seacock pulls I kept grousing about why there couldn't be better access. Here is my question. Aren't you going to...

Ok, yesterday my ac/dc panel was reading 120 and all systems were working while plugged into the dock. Today, instead of 120 I am getting --- . No numbers. I am getting power through the dock, the 120 systems are operational. I switched over to generator, started up, but no numerical reading...

You may want to consider a jet powered thruster. There was a recent boating magazine article on changes they wanted to see in the boating indistry and reference was made to jet powered thrusters as being more efficent and quieter. Just .02 worth.

Hey Green, I was talking to a detail guy and he said if the indentation on the caulk line is deep enough, go ahead and caulk over that. I asked him how should I deal with some mildew and discolored caulk on the deck lid covering the gas tanks. He said to forget pulling the old stuff out just...

I called Grady a couple of months ago when I needed to replace the sea cock pulls because the stainless had failed. I asked about resealing the deck plate. They said use the GE 2 Almond color. Worked like a charm. I used blue painter's tape and everything turned out well. Hardest part was...

Mega, are you considering the A12's? Also what placement do you anticipate?

Bama, ok had the boat pulled this a.m. Based on the condition of the hull and paint (two years old), it was recommended to paint the whole boat. I wanted the water line painted, the tabs painted (there was almost no paint on them) and and the engine bottoms painted. When we added up the cost...

Bama, I am pulling my boat on Monday to do the same thing and a couple of others. I will talk to the pros and see that what they say/do.

Did not change the antennae. There was an earlier thread about "digital" antennae being a name brand, but not digital as in electronic signal. Shakespeare antennae in place works fine.

Update. Figuring someone might run into the problem I had, I thought I would end the story with identification of the problem and solution. I sent my radio to Standard. They checked it out, called me and advised there was a defective board that needed to be replaced. They also offered to...

Has anyone taken down the tv cabinet on a Marlin 300 (2005), or any other model for that matter, to get to the inverter? The cabinet is bolted to the deck but I am trying to figure out how to take the cabinet down. I plan on installing a hd box so I can receive local broadcast (with an hd...

Try Jamestown Distributors.

Elysemn is right on the mark. Generator ok to run while under way. Generator off but seacock open. Not so much.

Strike, agreed and a good thought. I keep a hand held on the boat, but a second hard wired radio is not a bad idea, especially if it only costs $65. In fact, now that I think about it, I probably have two and sometimes three of everything on my boat, from electronics to anchors to safety...

I received a follow up from Standard after clarifying the problem. The tech person said their manual did not have the display I was getting and no one had heard it. FYI it says NO DATA over 00 (the numbers). I tried a hard restart of the radio. No joy. Standard says send it in. I may send it...

I received this response from Standard: "Thank you for contacting Standard Horizon Marine Electronics. We appreciate the opportunity to be of assistance to you. 'No Data' refers to the GPS coordinates. If you haven't turned on your GPS or your GPS receiver isn't receiving then the NO...

Seasick, you are correct. I have GPS interface for DSC. But the problem is not limited to the GPS. I am not getting any channels, 16 weather. I checked it out again last night. Tried turning on and off everything and still no reception. The radio powers on and off, but I get no service...

Grog, I have not checked the antennae yet, but your comment about the radio makes sense because I am not getting an interface with the GPS (and that was working fine off my chart plotter). Pathery, intersting comment, the AC main panel switch was off suggesting a power surge. I then checked the...
