    Yamaha motor covers

    Just depends on how much you want to spend. Ebay has Deluxe Yamaha covers for $78, same cover as US Boating Supply who wants $104. I think breathable covers are better [2 cents].

    I will post as soon as I get a chance to run them, looks like it might be a couple of weeks before I have everything back together. A few repairs were needed that I hadn't counted on. The whirlpool begins.

    Props for 265 with 225 4 strokes

    I bought a set of aluminum gimbal mounts on Ebay from a gbyerly 2, very well made, was going to reinforce the rod holder mounts with a piece of 1/2" ABS plastic underneath the holders to spread the load out. I guess well see how it works.

    Hi, I 'm new to forum, have just purchase a 265 express and was wondering what recommendations you might have for mounting scotty downriggers. Didn't really want to drill the edge, but probably the best way. Thanks
