    Lay Out Outriggers

    Hi, Not at all silly. No different than buying a boat without things and them adding them. It's a lot easier to remove things, than add 'em. 1 - when you go to sell it, the next buyer may want them. 2 - you could sell them right away and be done with it.... The only thing I wouldn't want...

    Time for an electronic upgrade

    The electronics on my boat are circa 2018. They are all RAYMARINE. AXION PRO MFD with LightHouse charts, CPT-S transducer, autopilot & wireless remote (control head looks similar to the current P70Rs), QUANTUM RADAR, FLIR and Ray73 VHF They are all very user friendly from an interface...

    Patching old mounting holes?

    Fill them (see note) with a good filler or 'glass & resin, leave a dimple for gel coat or plan to drill down an 1/8", then mix up gel coat and "paint" the gel coat in/on with a good quality artist's brush. Take your time and don't make it worse by trying to make it perfect. Keep in mind you...

    Rear deck section on 2004 Grady White Express "How to Secure"

    1 - I would 5200 in some stainless t-nuts underneath the "mounting flange" on the deck that aline with the exiting holes on the hatch. 2 - I would clean the perimiter edge of the opeing and the peremiter edge of the hatch really well. 3 - I would screw down the hatch with quality stainless...

    Rear deck section on 2004 Grady White Express "How to Secure"

    This sort of thing is right up my alley. If you post some pictures, I and others could come up with some ideas.

    306 Canyon no water at windscreen wipers

    Hi, Folks.... Check out my photo of the pump. At/on the top of the pump, on the right it appears there are wires going into the pump (looks normal). THEN...look at the bottom of the pump....there appears to be some sort of electronic device (see red wires behind it) that perhaps is the valve...

    306 Canyon no water at windscreen wipers

    I would suggest disconnecting the hose near the wiper to see if water is making it that far. If it is, then the sprayer is clogged. If it isn't then the issue is further upstream.

    306 Canyon no water at windscreen wipers

    ok.... here goes it.. 1. The fresh water switch must be "ON". 2. The strainer must be clean. 3. The hose must not be kinked nor squished by the spring on the wiper arm. 4. The tiny holes on the sprayer must not be plugged up. Some pics...

    Do you have a raw water head?

    306 Canyon no water at windscreen wipers

    I had this issue a few years ago and it was a small strainer on the fresh water. My 2018 306 has a little strainer near the fresh water pump. Mine is behind the lower hatch inside the console. It simply unscrews for cleaning.

    Yamaha 350 vs 300?

    there is a tuner called NIZPRO that tunes them. Personally, I wouldn't do it.

    WTB Marlin 30 What is reasonable?

    I think you are in the ballpark, but perhaps more-so in the parking lot.

    Replacing cup drain plugs on a Freedom 307

    I have replaced a bunch of my 2018 306 Canyon. Pretty simple once you access them. I used a needlenose piers and screwdriver to pull/pry the old one out the hose after lossening the hose clamp. Installation is simply the reverse. On my tackle station, I had removed my tackle drawers and frame...

    ? on wiper

    I have not been able to find just the rubber insert. My local NAPA was able to order one for me (Chris...see link below), but it was the wrong width. The one from NAPA was 8 MM and the blade on my boat is 6 MM. I just ordered these. I will report back if they fit/work...
