    Waiting for decals

    I have the decals in my garage. Bought them 4 years ago when I redid the decals on my Yamahas. I’m with you, it’s so much cleaner looking and easier to clean without the stickers! Everyone knows it’s a 30 GW...! I figure I’ll stick them on just before I take the pictures for BoatTrader.com

    ‘07 Marlin helm dome light

    Thought I’d start here late tonight before calling GW service tomorrow, but my dome light at the helm just crapped out. The switch for courtesy light is funky. Can still turn on floods. Looking for a new full unit probably, can you steer me in the right direction?

    Genny Replacement Marlin

    Great input, fellas. I can't argue with your reasoning... I knew going in that the Genny (and everything it powered) were luxury items and most likely just one more system I'd have to maintain and deal with failure over time. But, it's a diesel engine and I've had nothing but great success...

    Genny Replacement Marlin

    I'm kindof sick of the amount of maintenance and babying I have to do for my 2007 FP Mini4+ generator. For a handful of reasons this thing requires the capsule to be removed WAY TOO OFTEN to replace relays, troubleshoot, etc... Not to mention how I have to dislocate my shoulder to access the...

    marlin stereo remote

    Yes. You can run cable out of the radio box downward into the compartment where the AC and Vacuum pump equipment is, then run the cabling along the trim piece on the head liner in the mid berth, into the starboard compartment where your water hoses are, then up from there to the helm. It takes...

    Possible Re-power 07 Marlin

    Thanks for your input everyone. It amazes me how strong peoples opinions are in some areas. I can't tell you how many mechanics I've talked with who say "X" is "garbage", while the next guy says "Y" is "a piece of crap" and the next guy says "I wouldn't put Z on the boat of my worst enemy"...

    Possible Re-power 07 Marlin

    Thanks guys! Great input. I normally run the boat pretty heavy. We use it for winter salmon fishing in bad weather and long weekend and week-long trips into Canada for summer salmon. Normal crew is me and two other fatsos, lots of ice and beverages. I don't think the weight difference in...

    Possible Re-power 07 Marlin

    Thanks for the input so far! Grady got back to me and said indeed my model year is rated for 600hp so I could go twin 300's if I wanted. Almost all of these engines are around 600#, with the Yamaha's being a tad lighter. The Mercury Verado 300hp is a V-8. Anyone want to comment on the...

    Possible Re-power 07 Marlin

    Hi fellas, It was a sad weekend with one of my 2007 Yamaha 250's breaking a rod, we can discuss particulars of the situation in another thread or PM, so if we could stick to topic here I'd like to hear individual opinions on repowering the 2007 era Marlin. I'm not 100% sure I'm going re-power...

    Mid-cabin porthole hatch

    Found something I think is probably the answer on a site called Go2Marine.com They call it a Beckson Newport Ports 310. Newport Ports, 310 Self Drain Ports - 5-1/2" x 12-3/8" Overall I bet this works out. If not I'll let you know. Should know by the 4th. Gotta keep the crew happy so they...

    Mid-cabin porthole hatch

    My 2007 Marlin has a porthole window facing aft that has broken latches. Instead of simply caulking it in the shut position (which I may indeed do as time is running short for pre-trip projects) I have been looking for a full replacement. I haven't called GW yet since I don't want to pay the...

    Issue with boat listings to the port

    My input on your original questions. It seems several models of Grady list to port when on the dock. I assume it is galley related, due to the fridge and additional glass for the cabinet, etc. My Marlin also has microwave and AC unit on port side, and batteries too. Tough to offset this...

    VSR question

    I think you're correct. Their online product guide mentions having all three leads hooked up, each to one battery, with no taboo about what the battery amp hours are. I assume as do many that two batteries in parallel are essentially one battery. Anyhoo....
