    Wipers vs no wipers

    In all my years I have hardly ever sat at the console but rather stand next to for better overall vision. Similar to others if I sit, I am looking over the top of the glass. I do once in a while get spray and wasn’t sure if the ocean might be different.

    Wipers vs no wipers

    As I slowly clean up and make modifications to my 232, curious how many use their wipers while in the ocean. I have been a boater for over forty years on Lake Champlain and never had a need to use wipers - rain or shine. Will be retiring to the ocean at some point with the 232, and wondering if...

    2000 Gulfstream 232 U-Shaped Rear Seat Backrest

    Been looking at previous post but not sure any thing was relevant. The “queen” never been fond on the 232 due to her throne being the rear seat and the backrest has come apart at the seams and the cushion is shot. Personally I never put in unless she is coming out but have been ordered to fix...

    2023 Dockage Rates

    I would rather put the $500 plus into fuel! A beer and hotdog much cheaper on the DebbaDoo II.

    2023 Dockage Rates

    On Lake Champlain I will pay the minimum $3300 for a slip (approx $108/ft). Electrical an extra $350 from mid May to mid October. I have 1/2 ownership in a mooring in my bay but it faces the hard south winds and waves so hardly use. Marina has newly renovated club house and offers services if...

    19 year old fuel lines

    I had issues earlier this year and replaced fuel lines to eliminate potential air intake (posted and assisted on the forum). New lines were peace of mind but did test old lines before disposal. Lines not visible tested OK but from tank selector valves to motors were suspect with one small...

    Storage lids structural cracks

    Thanks everyone. Just returned from NC for kid number five wedding (last one :)) so now get to start thinking about spending money on my 232. More to come as I meet with local folks.

    Storage lids structural cracks

    On the starboard the crack is on both sides (can see light through) while the port is cracked on both sides but no light is visible. Assume just a matter of time. Would attach pictures but boat is covered and will not get to it for another month due to death in the family and a daughters...

    Storage lids structural cracks

    Both the livewell and storage lids on my 2000 232 have cracks at the hinges and really should be replaced. I have seen several posts on using existing as patterns but this really is out of my league. With folks having done it, what is the possibility of reusing/purchasing the patterns versus...

    Twin Yamaha 150’s woes

    I like the comment on the software to assist in troubleshooting for novices like me. Ordered mine yesterday! Are you recommending a third party manual versus the Yamaha manuals themselves?

    Fuel Management & Speed/Trip Gauges

    Being out today was able to play with both gauges. Fuel usage definitely being consumed and reported to the gauge as can see the last digit changing while running on one engine while trolling. The speed flickered speed at 3-4 mph a few times (never double digits) and the time (?) of trip was...

    Fuel Management & Speed/Trip Gauges

    Two strokes. I have the fuel senders (see picture prior to replacing all fuel lines) and wiring looks intact. Will try testing at some point this week but have little reason to believe it doesn’t work as gauge shows some data but 75% of screen is unreadable due to LED malfunction. Really think...
