Today tore into the switch panel to find sender wires and clean up unused junk in preparation for a new panel in the future. Punctuated by I phone falling in canal. Depth 6ft, time of immersion 3 min, adverse effects amazingly none! Have the sender wires isolated and now need to know how to...

Knowing where the tabs are during use would make them more useful. In my limited experience once used on the water I am not sure where they are until the boat is back on the lift. On my boat the penalty for touching the tabs is keel hauling!

Getting used to the new look gauges from the old Yamaha, and like Skunk use "all item" on both. Below a link to a brief explanation of the gauges I found helpful...

So finally got the boat back with new DF 250s. Did need the transom and that went fine. Installation could have been a little cleaner, but ok. 3 hours into break in all seems ok. My problem is the SMG4 gauges. Currently I have no fuel tank readings, I do not think the dealer calibrated the...

Got the call I was dreading yesterday, transom is in bad shape and needs repair. Details and estimate being coming in a few days.

28 Marlin here, my port scupper/drain hose is not accessible. Yamaha mechanic I use says at his shop they cut a round hole in cockpit side above it a close it up with a pie hole cover

2.25 in hole saw!!

Just put 2 in the transom of my neighbors Carolina Classic. Looks to be about the same room you have. They were 15 deg and I think he could have gone more. Used a 2.25' hole saw and worked fine. Did drill a small pilot hole to put them exactly where wanted. Not sure of the brand but he got...

till monday gold members get 5x points on purchase. good time to make large purchase. works out to 20% off

So I just did that and bought a pair of 250 Suzuki's for my 92 28 Marlin. The way I saw it was if I was to sell my boat as is could I get 50k, prob not but what the heck. Add 45k money for motors and say I find some Ben Franklins under the couch cushions. I walk out my front door with 100k to...

Yea new binnacle, key switch and dead man cut off. We did talk starboard at dealer. Charging bothers me...

New issue, cannot determine if the df250t has the option of an aux charge cable. Seems as though they are only for lower hp engines or fly by wire type. Anyone able to answer for me?

Black 250 mechanical was all that was available without prolonged wait, I did get digital gauges. My motors will be here in 10 days. My OX 66's have become unreliable and I do not want to wait till 2024 to fish. Mercury said sorry cannot help you and Yamaha has yet to get back to me except to...

On my way to put money down on 250 Suzuki's, mechanical control, digital gauges. They are available and should be here in about 10 days. Looking for any advice on what to ask or look for before and during repower. This is very new to me. Taking off my 1998 OX 66 250 Yamaha's thanks

way above my pay grade!

There are a few up here in Ft Pierce, got my first yesterday!

what skunk says for sure. my local home depot sells a 24x48 in piece of starboard for 97$. i am currently half way through my second sheet on my old boat. lots of things to cover up!

nuff said, i'm out

respectfully disagree to using one panel and 2 charge controllers. a simple google query will explain the reasons why. second your original post said 168 islander, i think you meant 268 correct. images of that boat show many with twin outboards, how is your boat set up? i only ask because a...

https://www.renogy.com/12v-30a-dual-battery-charging-100w-solar-flex-bundle/ look at this it is what you want to make.. no way i pay 450 though. the controller is the heart of the system. get a hard 100 watt panel, some 10ga landscape wire, heat shrink connectors and aluminum angle for the...
