I’m glad they finally had a cabin boat. Whaler and Pursuit had multiple. The new 325 dual console is really nice. I can see how it’s upgraded from the 307. Great layout and the swim platforms would be a big upgrade to the Marlin. Good selection of smaller Gradys as well but I didn’t look too...

I need the plastic cutting board that goes in the sink area in the bait prep station for a Marlin. Any leads?

Thanks. I'll probably have to wait until the shrink wrap comes off and get in there and measure before buying. Long winter. I got a quote for a full electronics upgrade and it was a lot, hence the desire to do this in pieces. My radar is fine for me now, but the new chart plotters are a big...

2005 Marlin. I have a single Raymarine C120 right now, with analog radar. I'd like to upgrade the electronics but hopefully in steps. This year I would like to add a second chart plotter. Looking at staying Raymarine so I can at least use the transducer. I know the radar won't work. I'm...

I went with a valise packed 6 man and put it in the aft fish box. Less room for fish but I bring a cooler anyways. Fits nicely but barely and still accessible but not automatic.

I had a survey on a 2006 Marlin which showed hull delamination as well. No moisture, it was well above the waterline near the bow. But a large area. I walked. The other common areas are around the old plastic thru hulls and the vent for the generator exhaust. There is a 33express up here that...

I don't know about the new boat price, but I'd say the price on your trade is pretty good. I sold a 2007 208 this spring with F200 and hard top for $31,000. Trade in value is always lower. I'd say they're at least not lowballing your trade.

Why do they need replacing? Perhaps a rebuild if they're not shot?

Well I figured out my problem, I think. The guy I bought it from was tall and had the seat raised all the way up. There was some play in the system at full extension. As I'm fairly short, I lowered it all the way down, tightened up everything, and it's now solid with no wobbles. So that's good.

Looks great. Any issues getting the old one off? I assume there's nuts on the screws or a backing plate? Fixed seems the way to go as adjustable will become loose over time it seems.

Do you have a link or part number for the internal Delrin bushing? That may be my problem.

I have the same pedestal and post on my 2005 Marlin, different base. There seems to be some play where the post meets the pedestal. Normal, or is there a bushing that should be in there?

New model, the Freedom 325. 31'2" with a 10'9" beam. Does this mean the end of the Marlin? I think it's a different situation than the Gulfstream/Freedom 235 as the 235 is 8'6" beam. The walk around models have gotten pretty slim as of late.

Finally got the boat, not the one originally planned but it all worked out. In any case, the valise Revere Coastal Commander 2.0 6 person fits fine in the aft fish box. Height is at the max but there's still room for other stuff as well. It's vacuum packed so hopefully it's dry enough in...

I had a 2007 with a hard top and F200 V6 yamaha. No problems at all. Felt like the perfect power to me. 5700 rpm 42 mph with 40 gal fuel and full water, 1 person, trimmed well in glassy water. Also had 4 adults and 4 kids on board and it pulled a tube around no problem. Obviously it is...

My local dealer got no 2017 walkarounds or express boats this year. All dual or center console. I have to admit they're all really nice, beautiful boats, but this is the new market I guess. Surprising for New England where cabins are actually fairly useful. I'd say at my marina at least...

I thought the 208 was pretty fantastic for a 20 footer. Really likes tabs in the rough stuff though. Get the bow down and plow through.

I would sell it as is, with full disclosure, priced accordingly. Include the quote for repair. My reasoning is that as a seller you'll never get your money back, and as a buyer they'll be less likely to trust the repair, especially if not local. In addition you may find a buyer who is willing...

Thank you. I am soon to be a 2007 Marlin owner. So this will be helpful to me when the head craps out.

Actually found the post. Angler Management is the one who mentioned painting. Have sent a PM.
