    Live Well Pump

    Shurflow Pro Baitmaster. Designed for continuous operation, livewell application. The Rule pumps are notorious for burning out. They are guaranteed but what good is it if your replacing them nevery season? Break it down, Rule 500 GPH (i'm assuming, not GPM's) is about 8.3 gals a minute-not a...

    Confused about water system

    water system On my '92 228 there is a fresh water tank aft of the amidship fuel tank (translucent plastic). The spicket (sp?) is on the starboard side. On the port side is the salt (raw) water spicket. Under the rocket launcher on the livewell is the handle for the "Y" valve diverting raw water...

    Seafarer 226 versus 228

    226 V 228 I absolutely love the full transom of the 228. Following sea, backing down etc. I'm not worrying about taking on water. Engine on the bracket distributes weight better. Did I mention the livewell? I'll never get a transom hung engine again.

    Fuel Filters

    2 mic. would be OK IF you use it as a 3rd or 4th stage. If you use a 2 micron as a primary or secondary, it will clog. Work your way down to a 2 micron.

    Fuel Filters

    should not have any problems w/ 10 mic. It is what is reccomended up in the NE b/c of ethanol. Bring extras.

    just bought my first GW

    yeah, a fresh water washdown would be pretty redundant on a lake! Raw water is on port side and fresh is on starboard. If you're not filling an aux. tank, it's raw. Sounds like you were patient, thorough & got a gem. Let's see some pics!

    just bought my first GW

    seafarer Welcome! I have a '92 Seafarer w/ 250 SWS II. My fuel tank is 92 gal. I would be very surprised if your boat had an aux tank. Do you have a fresh water washdown? Pop off the aft-most inspection port. That's where my 12? gallon fresh water tank is. Main fuel tank is amidship. Aux. tank...

    Thinking about buying this fixer upper...

    look at "conshykid" post under Tips & Mods.. He's fixing up an '89 w/ similar issues (bulkhead replacement). You may be able to get an honest opinion of what you're looking at work & $$ wise.

    Michigan Brian hit nail on the head. The end of a screwdriver is a surveyers best friend.

    which is better

    I am a true Startron believer (in my Pathfinder, too). It doesn't just separate the water, it breaks it down. What I like best about it is that you can't overdose the fuel. Suggested ration but overdosing is not harmful. Read the labels on some of the others "DO NOT OVERTREAT". I find I am going...

    Helm seat slider

    SLIDER I had the same problem w/ my seafarer. I got some starboard and 1/4"-20 toggles and fabricated my own mounting plate.

    Helm seat slider

    slider They are universal. I highly recommend the Garalick over the Todd. Garalick has better quality, fit and finish. They are more expensive but you get what you pay for.

    Looking for some Propellor Help

    trim Your pins are set too low on the engine mount. When trimmed all the way down, from the look of the 1st side pic., your engines go down too far.

    Engine and Dash modification, Grady 25 sailfish

    I noticed the deadrise runs the length of the bracket but on my original Grady bracket, it does not. Does anyone know why or how it effects performance?

    what to do with an old fixer-upper? FIX IT UP!

    FIXER Believe me, I would love nothing more than to see you get that puppy splashed! But I believe you're looking at a Pandora's Box. Michigan Brian makes the point. From the way you describe the boat, it needs more then a little TLC. I wouldn't go w/ the "if it floats, why mess w/ it"? b/c it...
