Mine has a lever like this. https://www.boats.net/product/yamaha/6E5-83672-01-00?gclid=Cj0KCQjww4-hBhCtARIsAC9gR3bDflSc1VK8nW28Dkm2EfAJJVUESZSf9-Q9Q31tghm-KQN1JB7URf0aAkHcEALw_wcB

Hmm that looks nothing like the lever on mine.

Ok I lifted both motors and I see the lever you all are referring too. On the working side it goes up and down with the motor, must have a spring in it. On the bad side it just moves freely by hand, appears the spring is likely broken. I'll likely fix it, but it is move down the list of things...

This is exactly my thoughts, if I can fix it easily, then I want to because...well everything should work right. :) But if not, no worries as I can look back at it as I did with my previous boat that had no indicator. :D

Got the gauges refurbished.

More work getting done.

Thank you, I like starting with the easy stuff! I'll check that today.

03 282 with original engines and gauges. When I purchased it the gauges were unreadable. I sent them to a place to get refurbished. They did a great job and they look and work perfectly except, the starboard tach has the trim indicator shows the motor trimmed up all the way and does not change...

Great discussion guys, and thank you all for the input. I do have 4200, 5200, Life Seal and Life Caulk on hand. Now it's time to pick the best one.

Thank you all for the input. If the tabs are stainless, I wonder why they were painted in the first place. The paint was flaking off. Look at the link above, I think I'll just clean them good and leave them. This boat will not stay in the water, it will be stored indoors and will be washed down...

Thanks guys, I'll clean it all up and get a better look at it. So the "paint" on the trim tabs is flaking off, any recommendation on a paint for them?

So I loosened the 2 lower screws and water streamed down the bunk to the ground. Made a wet mark about the size of a quarter. Not sure if it actually came out of the holes, or was between the plate and hull.

Yes it is the ones mounted to the bottom of the hull. I just took the starboard side off and water actually dripped out. So, I don't have to drill out and re-glass? That would be awesome news!

I finally got to this issue. Pulled the port side trim tab and using the q-tip and paper towel I was able to determine there is moisture in most the the mounting screw holes. Now what? As a reminder the surveyor suggesting pulling the trim tabs, drill the mounting holes bigger, and putting...

Me too!

Newwiremarine.com has rocker style switches that turn off once you release them.

No they actually rely on them while traveling………

Probably wont help, but here are a few. I guess I didn't get any of it finished. I'll have to take some.

Actually the IPAD that are cell capable have a GPS antenna, That is all you need so cell service doesn't matter. Just like your chart plotter using GPS.

Yes, I still have the new simrad that has navigation. So I will use the IPAD for nav and the simrad for fish finding. If I have an issue with the IPAD I can use the simrad or even my phone that has the same capability as the IPAD.
