Fire - was out there today adding some chafing gear. That's exactly what I thought....needs a chock on each side about mid-way. (Friggin Harbor I moor in is open to the SE...which is the direction of most summer/fall storms, its not unlikely to see 3-5 ftrs in the mooring area in a storm...and...

BLUF: Rookie here. Only had my 99Marlin for a few hours (end of last season and beginning of this one). I just took the OX66s off and re-powered with Zuke DF250s. The extra weight of the F-strks brings the trim up alittle in the bow...and I like it. I thought that with the OX66s that the Marlin...

Hi - 99Marlin is new to me and I am setting up my own mooring. The pendant (or is it bridle?) for both bow cleats rubs on the closest under- edge of the pulpit. It will definitely wear in storm conditions. Chaffing gear will need to reach almost to the eye splice since this area on the bridle...

I know all about that! Break Out Another XXXX ! you're probably correct

must be rechargeable? Got a link or model?

yes - I think that is the one I have heard about (kinda pricey tho) Thanks

Looking for a cabin fan to run off my house power (dc) for the night. I think there is some low power ones that are supposed to move some good air. Anybody have suggestions?

agree - after drawing a simple diagram of the dual tank, dual engine system, that bulb's path is only unique from the switch to the engine (leaving bulb, separator, and switch itself). We'll see, they are looking at it, hopefully a defective bulb yes, checked the direction was correct Thanks

Hi - new engines installed, and I asked them to take out primer pumps and put in squeeze bulbs. After sea trial by the boatyard, noticed one bulb collapsed and changing tanks to that engine/bulb did not relieve. Thinking there's some sort of blockage somewhere...any thoughts? Anti siphon...

guess you're all right - I have a magna that fits in the rod holders, i haven't used it on this boat, but will soon. This boat (a Marlin) certainly holds alot more gas than previous boats....but that should not make a difference if everything is proper. I will direct my insomnia to other issues...

Anyone nervous about open flame (propane grill) near the cockpit and 100s of gallons of gas? I was thinking of getting a more contained grill (not too much open flame) and moving to the bow for cooking? Thoughts?

under guidance from the boatyard mechanic - I hooked a hose up to the fill on the boat and blasted it....water made thru the filled tank to the pump. I then hooked up in/out of pump and turned her on....all set. Thanks all

The boatyard winterized my boat. Now I am in the water on a mooring trying to get the water system to hold a prime. Its not easy. I can draw water up to the pump from the tank (pump input hose disconnected with hand-pump on it) but by the time I reconnect to the electric pump, its lost its prime...

My labels are worn off my fuel fills. Is the fwd fuel filler the main and the aft most one the aux? One would think I could monitor the Yamaha fuel gauge as I add fuel to one at a time, but the gauges seem erratic. thanks

Tom - check your PMs

Tom - i think I have seen your boat. Would like to talk about particulars (handling and power options) and hook up sometime

hey - I'm over in Mattapoisett....would like to gain some insights from you....first full year with my 1999 upcoming. -John

Is that side where the generator is? Mine is a 99 and does not have a gen. I havent noticed a list on mine (yet)

Congratulations Cap'n - looks great !

Sierra Synthetic - no problems yet....early in my ownership...OX66s
