    2005 282 Sailfish Moisture Issue

    Exactly Dennis! That's a very odd place to get moisture readings! How does it sound when tapped with a mallet? Also from the area you describe you or the surveyor should be able to inspect a good portion of that area from the inside! If you go in the aft berth (under the stairs) there's a very...

    2005 282 Sailfish Moisture Issue

    Can you be more specific on the location... pictures? Was the boat in the water when tested with a meter? Was there or has there been any repair to this area? Is there anything that could be causing this reading? You need to ask and answer these questions before going forward. I say this...

    2002 282 sailfish ac..?

    The original a/c was located under the aft berth, behind the stairs. There's a floor panel in that berth where the unit sat. You're pickup should be in the aft bilge port side if I'm not mistaken and the pump out would be in the forward bilge port side (directly opposite of the toilet pick up)...

    State shut downs and marinas

    No ban in NYC yet. They probably know that nobody is going to listen anyway. I'm kinda shocked any states are banning it to begin with to be honest. The only exception to this would be commercial party boats. Not sure if there's anything more distant than being on a boat. The only people on my...

    Jabsco manual repair

    I have a jabsco manual pump for my 2001 sailfish, the jabsco model is for the years 1998 to 2007 I believe( light blue sticker). I have a small leak at the top which I understand is common and easy to repair etc. Also the pump has been always stiff to operate and I figured I would need an entire...

    Yamaha F225 Anode

    Do you have twins or single? Hydraulic steering or cable? My understanding is the fin is really for single outboard with cable steering to offset any steering issues from the propeller thrust. A few places still sell them but you have to confirm with them before you purchase that they're not...

    When it goes wrong!

    That nose looked very low from the start, then to make matters worse he rode the front of the wave. That's nuts

    EPIRB?

    Acr global, vhf with GPS/distress, handheld vhf and 3plbs on life vest. If any of them fail I want to know I have a backup plan. I do like the acr because if the 10yr battery and easy replacement of it.

    Not sure where your located but I have one from my 282 I'm looking to get rid of. I took the microwave and a/c off the boat when I first bought it and haven't used it since.

    Is my A/C worth anything?

    I purchased a 2001 282 sailfish a couple of years ago. And since remove the air conditioner because honestly I don't need it here in the Northeast and want to remove unnecessary weight from the boat. Is this worth anything? Model VRP7KGW

    Fuel economy query....282 Sailfish...

    Lol I probably know much less than you about props if that helps any lol. It makes me question maybe I should try a set of lower pitched props to see if it helps with the fuel economy. Either way it's good to know that he is getting such great performance numbers with those props.

    Fuel economy query....282 Sailfish...

    That's pretty interesting numbers considering two things. 1-grady white tested this boat with the Yamahas and the 15-1/4x19 why would they do that if they could get better numbers with a lower pitch? 2- I thought it would have lower pitch you would lose fuel economy? I bet that's one of the...
