I have an 04 282 now powered with F250's . The original engines were F225. Gas mileage is pretty close between the new and the old - 1.25 to 1.6 on an ideal day

yup - it is just a refund of an overcharge!

As a temporary fix a got some aluminum flashing and siliconed it over the existing cap - did the job for a few yean before a permanent repair

I went from Seaifarer to Gulfstream to a Sailfish. The Seafarer was a non SeaV@ hull so the switch to SeaV2 Hull Gulfstream was even more dramatic with improved comfort and handling. The switch from Gulfstream to Saiifish was pretty dramatic to bc of going from single engine power to twins. You...

could never understand how scammers make a living cruising web sites. Are there enough people that would fall for these scam? I would think it would be easier to get a job than cruising web sites looking for scamees. Buyer Beware!

Nice job - totally agree with the existing opening being too small. If you are lean enough to squeeze into the opening be prepared to come covered in battle wounds from the raw fiberglass edges of the opening. You would thing given all the mechanicals in that hole GW would have made a decent...

I try o keep circulation moving through open windows and hatch along with constant use of a fan. During the winter storage absorption bags are great

Many new boats have some imperfections that once identified are taken care of by then dealer. Have not even heard of many issues that needed to be elevated to GW. Have you tried to elevate the issue with GW management? May be worth a shot.

If you are wondering how to get to the screws, the dome light cover pries off. Its tricky but a small flat head can do the job.

Love the sleek look of the new digital control! Good luck with the upgrade. One big mistake I made when i upgraded to 4.2L engines, I did not install a new transom cap when the old engines off.

/i recently saw the new 21 foot model at a dealer and the price was 165K. 190 seems reasonable but fair is a different discussion.

Congrats, looks to be in great shape!

i have a 282 Sailfish and have always liked the ride in most conditions. A friend recently purchased a Marlin and I had a chance to go for a cruise last weekend - There is a big difference between the SF and Marlin. Overall the Marlin is a much heavier boat and the wider beam adds to stability...

I Have always filled mine - I had heard it keeps moisture / condensation out of the tank. I know many that winterize with low levels of fuel and none of us have had any fuel issues. Most years the price of gas is higher than the last and it save me a few bucks and I do't get socked with a huge...

Try Colot Rite for paint. They are very helpful and know Yamaha paint colors. I got some last year for a scratch on one of my 2017 Yamaha and it was a perfect match.

Mine has the same setup , The pump is the fresh water, just replaced mine last year, The black box is the trim tabs

Great cruise video is that Key West?

2004 SF has the Groco Macerator. The unit is bolted to the top of the tank but the mechanical structure of the macerator is in the tank. It is s pain to get to but as used2sail said it is doable.

I have a 04 Saifish and love the boat. t is very versatile for cruising and or fishing. Mine came with twin 225 and they were flawless for 12 years until they weren't. Be very certain that the exhaust has been replaced. There are many low hour 225 'st hat have experienced engine failure due to...

I just dropped mine off for winter storage and a stern cap inspection. Were the 4 notches in transom cap there or did you cut them to see what the stern damage looked like?l Good luck with the search for 4 strokes and the transom. Does look like supply of used engines is improving a bit.
