What boat year/model did it come off of?

Tank is probably leaking. Stuff access plate area with paper towels and fill tank. Rock the boat for a while and check the paper towels. Look for leaks around fuel sending unit and hose connections. Alternative is to pull the deck. If the tanks are aluminum at 23 years old it's possible you have...

Hookup1 said: I have been running a 268 Islander with twin Yamaha f-150's with 17 x 14 1/4 3-blade Yamaha Reliance stainless. Generally the boat is a 10 knot or 20 knot boat with no in-between. I want to improve my low end performance so I can plane at lower speed. I have plenty of top end and...

The GW EuroTransom is equivalent to a bracket that has a swim platform over it. AI overview: A euro transom is a boat's stern design that features a closed, integrated transom with a taller bulkhead separating the engines from the main deck, which extends the boat's running surface and...

Yes that is my boat - older picture before it was painted blue.

My hull is not stepped. SeaV2 hull with a EuroTransom.

Your stringers are shot along with the transom. The reason you have movement in the transom is the stringers are wet and separated from the transom. The two outer stringers carry most of the load. These are impossible to get to. They run to the left and right side of the battery and forward to...

You have the u-channel. Yes I have the stepped “Euro Transom”.

Temporary hack to keep the transom top from flexing.

I know yours are built in. Try different o-rings or call manufacturer. I have read a number of posts that have trouble.

When someone says they "shorted out" something it's a clue for me that they need to bring a professional in.

McMaster Carr - try different o-ring sizes. No problem with my Melnor garden hose quick connects!

Take the seat off and exercise the seat base and actuator! Make sure the base is working 100% before re-attaching the seat.

I don't know the boat. Gravity can be a bitch though! GW would have never shipped a boat this way. Something is changed/different.

The cockpit deck and drains are/should be above the waterline. The drains connect with a short hose to a below the waterline fitting with a rubber flapper. If your cockpit deck and drains are below the waterline when sitting and the hoses are good it is possible water could come in thru the deck...

Does the actuator travel the full length forward/backward? If it does then the seat is mounted incorrectly. GW should be able to tell you the manufacturer. There are not that many companies that make seats like your. Get some Google searches going and find out.

If you have the manufacturer of the seat I would call them. GW Customer Service should be able to tell you that. My guess is that the actuator has to be aligned with seat when it is assembled. Something like actuator all the way forward or backward.

My problem is when something starts beeping at the helm I can't tell what unit the alarm is coming from! Could be a Yamaha engine alarm, a Garmin alarm or an Icom radio alarm. On my high water alarm I installed a bell type. It would be great if the manufactures made them settable.

Looks like it's for anchor radius. Anchor Alarm on a Garmin Marine Device Several Garmin chartplotters allow a user to set an anchor drag alarm to sound when the vessel exceeds a specified drift distance while anchored, this is especially helpful anchoring at overnight. It is important to know...

Amazon has relay's that would work. Get one with a socket and pigtail wires. Something like this...
