I know my wife can see generally where I am on find my iPhone. Does not work in Mexico. But she has tracked me as far as South San Clemente Island (off Southern Cal), about 50-60 miles from our house. She takes random screenshots, not sure if it is available all the time or you need to be...

I replaced my lids with the screw on type and am much happier. They leak much less than the pop outs.

Great idea on the Fluid Film - I'll have to add that to my list of stuff to do this spring!

Nice and clean - enjoy!

I had it fabbed up when I put on my new motor. Fiberglassing the gap as mentioned above is the way to go.

I used a stainless steel bang plate. I filled the gap with epoxy, in hindsight, I wish I would have fiberglassed over the gap. 1996 Adventure 208.

Yep, not a good design. Hookup, I was told that is a zerk fitting for a pivot tube and should be fixed. I am thinking mine broke off using the wedge (same one in above pic) or cleaning the boat. I'll need to be more careful when cleaning up and leaving the ramp - make sure the wedge is on...

Thank you all - yep - you guys are accurate, zerk fitting with a grounding wire. Thanks for the feedback and quick responses!

Did you see that loose wire? Is that a grounding wire of some sort?

What is this screw called and what does this do? The screw may have broken off inside the casing. Yamaha F150. thanks I’m advance!

Welcome aboard! It would be great to see you on the water.

Congrats on a great fishing year! Looks like you are really dialing your rig in. Have fun!

What about the space above the steering wheel, the flip up glove box. You could close that area up and mount at the approp angle. I may do that in the future on my boat, lots of folks have done that on this site (mult models).

Great guidance here!

She will great when all done!

Hi all - I agree with seasick, my dad was a mechanic for 40 years and he always told me, "if it aint broke, don't fix it". That said, it did replace all fuse panels, bus bars etc when I freshened up my dash this year. All connectors etc were replaced, but I did not replace any wire runs.

Yes 2-3 adults includes me, and no hardtop.

I think I have posted this before: My experience with the 208 and the F150. I typically fish with a full tank of gas, full 32 gallon bait tank, located near the transom, 60 lbs of ice and 2-3 adults. It gets on plane fine and I can run 4200 rpm and get 20-24 mph. I do not have trim tabs...

Just for reference. I did 2 patch jobs on my boat, 1 with marine tex and 1 with GW spectrum gelcoat. The picture of the stern and the up close picture of the white screw hole patch were done with marine tex, both below the water line. The picture of the on the bow was the done with GW...

I love my 208, easy to trailer, easy on fuel and gets me to where I want to be on most days comfortably! Lets see some more pics when you get a chance!
