Glassing that area and making it flush would be hard to do properly here, but I agree a better plate and layer of some other protective material to prevent water intrusion should be incorporated. Fully glassing that area would cost a lot of money because it would be fairly time consuming for...

Call Grady direct and ask for parts dept you will have an answer in 5 min and have the actual depth you need the unit mounted to as well, also your local Grady dealer can get the part for you. I called them last week for part number and size for mine to replace a bad sending unit I had. This...

Hardtop if you have one, that typically is an option and not included in dry weight estimates from a manufacturer. Not sure what yours ways, my estimate, maybe 200lb for HT and pipework. Also as mentioned, in a dry weight batteries should not be included but could be, depends on the...

Decided not to run last minute...would be running through some severe T storms on the ride out only to get out to a changing front just to the south of the canyons, depending on how that front moves we could be just north and flat calm, or in it and get rocked badly. Between that and the water...

Heading to the hudson or Tom's canyon on tuesaboard my boat the S.T. Barb II. Leaving the dock at 1am for a day troll. Will be running along side my buddy on his 29 welcraft, Skippin' skool. Hoping to get there for the big eye bite and then work for some yellowfin and possibly deep drop for...

It is one of 2 things... a loose wire or more likely a clogged filter, biggest culprit is vst tank, but could also be screen at pick up as well. Check the fuel system first, much easier to do, if that is not it then it is electrical, I had an engine do it but it got worse and then died all...

Personally I'd add twin 150's, you will see plenty of power, great fuel consumption and will be best investment for resale, as well as for reliabilty over the years incase something does go wrong. Maintaining one big 4stroke or 2 smaller 4 strokes is not a huge difference in price, yearly...

It is is as deep as stated iot is clearly through the gelcoat, gel coat is maybe the thickness of construction paper, beyond that you are into glass or core. If you do not see foam, you have solid glass which first needs glass work, it can be done yourself but I highly advise having someone...

Did you check the power going into the engine with a meter? what voltage do they read...it is possible the strike burned out batteries, or on some Yamaha engines there is a metal link in the main line going to the engine that will actually burn out if ther eis a voltage overload keeping the...

The owners manual included with the engines should show what the recommendations are. I know the dealer running them in a tank for 2 hours is not part of it, but might be part of what he feels is necessary, he might be checking systems and the install for himself that way, not sure. Just do...

It is probably close to 1" inch depending on what the lay up is, but that is a more beefed up area of the boat typically since they get stood on a lot and rod holders are mounted there, this part of the boat also adds rigidity to the boat itself. Your hole saw shouldnt have a problem getting...

The hteory was to highly atomize the fuel into smaller molecules, basically a fine mist to get it to burn more fully optimizing performance. Your injectors are working at a high presure. The 200 HPDI was an excellent engine and one of Yamaha's most reliable and popular engines for its time...

I checked my mounting holes, my engines are actually mounted one bolt location up from the lowest location. My trim plate runs maybe 1" below the water, it could be higher, but up another hole would likely be the max height I would go because you would then be running like a go fast CC and this...

My stbd engine squeels at idle a lto after running a long time, it comes and goes, just needs to be lubricated, I forget the exact location, my dealer did it when I wa sin for service, mad eit better but it came back over time. I've been told it is normal and not going to harm anything and just...

I agree Bob, they should ahve chaulked the bulkhead to deck for sure if nothing else, and any and ALL exposed end grain wood needs to have resin applied to it if not finished off nicely...which it should be, but many builders do not do. I had to take mine out before it rotted and applied resin...

Bill what exact props are you running? I'd love to throw them on my boat, if I could get that economy I'd be able to reach another canyon or two from my location without having to run south, or could save maybe 15gal a trip, cutting cost by roughly $50, would be worth considering for that fuel...

I have 17" wheels, I will get the exact size if I can, I'm propped out very well, see full rpm or darn close when full of fuel and have no shortage of power. A 4 blade would be very interesting though since this boat does require you to power up harder then pull back to jump on plane easily...

There si a reason they are not the same size tank, not ment to be run simulataneously by design. This does not mean it cannot be done, but most boats ride better off a particular tank then another, so for distance you want to burn the tank off that has a worse effect on economy or ride first...

It will NOT cause a list, but you will get a pull to one side since the thrust is not directly comming straight off the propeller, you can adjust the zinc tab behind the prop slightly offset to help this. Only on big hp engines will you feel a very slight pull coming on plane to one side, but...

That si somewhat common since you have good weight forward from the cabin and such, are you running bow up or down, trim tabs would help, putting the bow down helps heek you in the water and more cutting then riding on top, not as nice on the fuel but way better ride within reason to the size of...
