On the punch list of repairs that were to be made on my 282 sailfish was the refrigerator. It runs but doesn't get cold. I spoke with the tech after he launched the boat and he claimed that he pulled the unit and cleaned the condenser and it seemed to run Ok after that. I just got back from...

I filled it from the toilet and pumped out several times. i had to recalibrate the high level several times.

I checked into this last Friday. I found there was about 2 inches of water in the tank. It looks like theres no "foreign matter" in the tank and id guess that it may have never been used. i went through the recalibration of the level indicator and after a couple attempts it seems to have sorted...

i found a set of blades at the local napa that are going to work for now. that store no longer sells the blade only so I bought a cheap set of frames and got them on the arms. One of my neighbors in the marina has pointed me towards Hamilton Marine as a source of the blades that will fit the...

I took this one but its not very sharp. It appears that the frame is 5/16 would you say that the 1/4" Narrow refils you use would fit this frame??

Thanks Timbo, I found a thread from way back that had a bunch of information about the system Grady used when they changed to the pump from the top of the tank. The level sensor is on the outside too, it is fitted on the side. According to the post that I'll try to link any residue inside the...

These are some pictures of my wiper blades, specifically of the connection between the wiper arm and the blade assembly. Are these what folks are familiar with? We are headed over to Portland on Friday to keep after the pre season chores. I'm planning to take the wipers off and carry them to a...

i think the level indicator is still sketchy. I'm a 2 hour drive from the boat right now. I'm planning to head back over there to egt this sorted out early this week

mine has the macerator on top, the level sensor was allegedly fixed but thats jsut what i was told. it appears that the sensor in the link posted by hook up is the float style which i've always found to be problematic in anything but clean fluid. My concern is that if the level indicator is...

when we did the sea trial before purchase (late last October) the level indicator was showing full. It was on the list to be repaired before launching. The tech who worked on the boat told me he pulled and cleaned the level sensor and replaced the macerator pump ( that too was inop at sea...

that looks similar, mine is a jabsco I'm not sure if the Johnson and the Jabsco are the same. There cant be much difference.

overboard discharge is 3 miles out or further offfshore. agreed on the seacocks being shut my concern is if this thing is filling the tank while we are underway what needs to be replaced or rebuilt or is this a normal occurence( i cant imagine it is). To clarify, ive never had a boat with a head...

So i've got another question about my new to me 2006 282 sailfish. The boat was launched 2 weeks ago and no one has used the head since. My wife and I spent yesterday at the boat doing some work and she noticed that the holding tank level indicator was showing nearly full. Is it possible for...

I believe they are the school bus tyoe. they are like the ones found on the 60's & 70's cars where you replaced only the rubber edge and not the entire wiper.

I've been out on my new to me 2006 282 sailfish a couple times over the last week. I went out a few miles off the coast today to do a little fishing and ran into a little chop. This made very obvious the need for a new set of wiper blades; the ones on my boat are worse than useless. Before i...

i bought some arm rests a couple months ago from a member , soon after i was contacted by a different member claiming to have a second set that i needed. after a couple back and forth messages i was convinced this person was a scammer and reported him to moderators. It seems someone is looking...

I've looked at the battery compartment as a way to access the thru hull end of the hoses. It would be a very very tight squeeze for me to get in there; as mentioned maybe one of the kids is small enough to shove in there and pull it off but I'd probably never be comfortable unless it was me that...

This job is in my future, looking forward to seeing what folks have to say!

here are a couple shots I took when we first went to look at the boat back in October. i'm very happy we finally got this done, there were a few hiccups along the way but i think it worked out for all concerned. The marina that sold it to us is going to take care of everything on the surveyors...
