I have the similar issue with my 2004 Grady Marlin. I bought it used from a local grady dealer salesman acting as a broker around 2012. I noticed it right after I purchased it( shame on me). I spoke to the salesman and he indicated that they send around a contractor to fix it and expect to...

I was able to install a 12 inch and a nine inch Simrad MFDs on my 04 Marlin two years ago. There didn't seem to be enough room to go any bigger.

I fish in RI and sometimes Ma. We primarily target striped bass, blue fish, albies, some black sea bass and tuna. I have more tackle than I need. Having a Bass Pro shop a few miles from home doesn't help. I tend to troll 9er rigs and tube and worm for the Bass and blues. Sometimes we use...

BTW I also had a 2008 Seafarer with hardtop and it had a 250. The boat was great. Never needed more power than that...

I am going to have more follow up conversations with repower guys but my understanding is that the dealers won't take ownership of the used engines but will help you sell your engines. So really, I won't know what they are worth until someone actually buys them. I started to google used...

Thanks for the replies. I had the exhaust kit done when I bought the boat in 2013. I was told that since this was done the motors had a market

My current thoughts are to keep my 2004 Marlin for a long time. I have already updated the electronics recently. I currently have 2004 f225s and are considering repowering to f300 now rather than later. My thought is that if I do it now, I would receive a better trade in for the f225, the...
