    mutton dressed up as lamb? updated decals

    I found where I got them. It was only about $120 for the whole kit. I think I paid a couple hundred to have them installed though. David Croteau 508-873-3353 Good people.

    mutton dressed up as lamb? updated decals

    I replaced my 1989 decals with new ones- what a difference! I got new side GW, stripes and the “sailfish” decal for the side of the cabin. I got someone who does wraps to remove the old ones and install the new, I’m not too good at work that requires a light touch lol. I think I bought them from...

    Repower options for 1994 Sailfish 252G

    I’m not able to attach pictures- says the file is too large. If you message me an email address I’ll send some. There was a shortage of these motors, I think they’re really selling - I’m seeing more and more of them on trailered boats here. I have read a few posts about shortage of repair parts...

    New Suzukis on 1989 Sailfish?

    Have about 20 hours on the new motors now and could be happier (unless someone else payed for them :lol: ) Don’t worry about the power, there is plenty for me anyway. Hole shot is fine, going from the 2 stroke 150 HPDI’s to the DF 200 AP there is so much more power, especially when accelerating...

    New Suzukis on 1989 Sailfish?

    Thanks. If anyone is interested, I repowered with Suzuki DF200AP. The fly by wire is awesome! I’m seeing much better fuel economy so far, getting about 2.25 MPG at cruise speed of 30 mph. Trolling speed mpg’s are doubled from about 1 mpg to 2mpg. I would say average mpg improvement of about...

    Offshore 24 leans to one side

    My Sailfish 252G does the same thing. Stern sits in the water a little low in starboard side. Always worried I might have some wet wood in the transom on that side. Or if it’s the boats layout that makes it lean. I had one battery on each side, added a third battery for house and put it in the...

    New Suzukis on 1989 Sailfish?

    Thanks for the reply 89. Good info. The new Suzuki DF150 and DF175 are listed at around 531 lbs, where the hpdi’s are 468lbs, so they would be about 130 extra lbs total. I would have the dealer install new motors. New bracket- maybe have it installed at a fiberglass shop? Who did your re-Power...

    I've read all the threads here and got me more confused :( I would really like to find some replacement green and red navigation lights with LED bulbs that would come close to the same footprint as the original lights. The old light fixture itself is in OK shape, but the lens is cloudy and I'd...

    [attachment=0]IMG_1111.JPG[/attachmenThe latch to keep my stove folded up against the bulkhead broke. Any one ever find a like for like replacement? I tried one from WM made by Whitecap (S-0054C) but it won't do the job. Old one has markings on the back looks like "DC" and the number "2021 A&B"...
