    Marlin Bulkhead Noise

    I have a 2007 Marlin and that squeak does not occur on my boat. Opinions are like arm pits.....here is my two cents worth. I think something is not bolted tightly on your hard top on the starboard side, and that is what is causing that squeak, and I agree that it definitely not normal. It...

    Help with AC

    Assuming your 2007 Marlin is setup the same as mine.......and assuming your shore power is working properly......I have had two problems with the a/c on my Marlin. Both were related to the water pump. I am on my third water pump since I bought the boat new. So first check out your shore...

    Possible Re-power 07 Marlin

    Remember opinions are like ............ arm pits, everyone has two. My 2 cents worth......I would go with 300's. My Yamaha guys says the fuel economy is better than our 2007 F250s. Which 300, again opinions, but I would go with Yamaha or Suzuki, the deal breaker would not just be cost but...

    Trim tabs not working

    So it turns out that the fork lift pushed my starboard trim tab well off center when they were picking the boat up from the water. The fork lift driver must have tried to move the boom arms with weight on the to adjust the position and that caused the system to not work, I got that fixed and...

    Trim tabs not working

    I have a 2007 Marlin. I am trying to trouble shoot my trim tabs. They were working fine it must be something simple as they were fine on the 7th, then nothing on Friday the 13th. We checked the 20 amp fuse which seemed to be good. I checked the manual and found the wiring diagram but it...

    Shift and throttle cable

    I had a similar issue with my port engine and it turned out that the shift cable was outside the bracket. I put the cable back in the bracket and added a zip tie to hold it closed. I would look at the cable bracket on both engines and see if one has popped out.

    Lower unit stand

    Anyone have a lower unit stand? If so did you build it and if so what are the dimensions? I want to build one to make it easier to change lower unit impellers. I have twin F250s. Thanks.

    On my Sailfish the a/c uno was under the forward compartment of the V berth. Not sure where your's is but there is a reset button on the unit, I have had to reset the compressor not only on my Sailfish but also on the Marlin. Where is your a/c unit located? If under the V berth like my old...

    272 Sailfish Aft Bilge Tubing Replacement

    I had a 272 before I got my Marlin. I had to remove the livewell to get access under it. On my 272 the remote oil pumps for the oil tanks were located under the live well. It was not easy but doable to get it out. Besides removing the screws I had to cut the live well tank insulation on the...

    Kicker motor for Freedom 255

    I had a kicker om my Seafarer years ago, it was a 9.9 it worked great. The key will be the bracket you put on her. I agree with Fishtails, peace of mind is a good thing.
