Vitamin Dee (Wife, Danielle's, nickname) But I never put names on the boat. Prefer a clean side/stern.

Just add anti-freeze to the tank to prevent freezing. Then, after you replace pump, you will be able to pump out tank, fill with a dash of bleach and water. That will clean out everything, pump it out and fill - good to go.

I have Yamahas version of the eu2000. I’ve tripped it during compressor start up. I mount it on the transom when on the hook, as I feel having it behind the transom and lower lessons the chance of CO2entering the cabin.

I have owned the 24 offshore, 28 sailfish, 33express,30 marlin and now the 33express again. Ihave found their customer service to be second to none. Better than sea ray when i owned one. I have had little issue with any of my boats that i wouldnt chalk up to age/wear and tear. I am not just a...

I think the ladder is to port so that the transom door can be used as a tuna door and you can slide a fish in without damaging it (the fish). If you dont intend on doing that then add an armstrong removable ladder on the starboard side.

Maybe i had/have a cleaner bottom but my Marlin with the 2 strokes was just as efficient at cruise. The extra cost wasn’t in the fuel burned, but rather the oil I guzzled.

My wife loved the side windows as well. I single hand the 330, all the time. I don’t find it to be any harder than the Marlin was to handle. Both had/have thrusters.

On both my '06 express and my '07 express I have F250s of the same year. My friend with the '05 Marlin has F250's of the same year. My Friend with the '02 Marlin had F225s and now has 2017 F250's, my 00 had OX 66 2 stroke 250's. I can't explain it, I can just read numbers. My flow scan is...

This is going on in another thread. I have owned 2 expresses (an '06, and now an '07) and one Marlin (an 00). my friends own an '02 and an '05. Same fuel burn on all of those boats, 1.1 to 1.2. That is with twin F250's of various years.I think the extra boat is worth it, especially...

Oh, and in general there is a 10% discount off the ask on those sights, but it can be much more substantial if its been on there a while, is overpriced, motivated seller, or this time of year.

I believe there are huge differences. I was an Express owner, then went to the Marlin, then back to the express, so that should tell you something. I don't have issues with the helm seating, but I am 5'10" 170 pounds. Cabin is significantly more substantial for overnight comfort. Ride and...

Awesome repower. You must be very pleased with the performance new motors with over 1000 hp. We are all loyal to yammies, cult like, through exhaust rot, flywheels taking out entire powerheads, etc. I am guilty of it as well, but often wonder why. There are great motors out there. Glad you...

Can’t explain the low idle whenyou first start, but 200 hpdis are designed to drop 2cylinders at idle. If you attempt to raise the idle in neutral, it drops 2 more. Have to be in gear to throttle up.

Compass may be in bathroom cabinet underneath sink. Pump could be in bilge by water tank, rudder feedback (if you have one-some were virtual) will be one engine (usually starboard), and control unit behind dash (where you tach gauges are).

Same issue with my 07 Express. I just reached in from the outside with a 90 degree small pick and ripped out the blocked screen. It isn't uncommon for those screens to get gummed up and they don't seem necessary. Never had a bug issue. Once I removed the screen, the unit has worked perfect...

That is probably the pump for the defunct autopilot. That boat did not come with power assist steering, very few do since the hydraulic system is perfectly capable of turning the motors easily, without assist. My 06 Express had it as an option, my 07 does not. None of my friends Marlins have...

If you are trying to match the backing plate to existing rod holders, their pipe size and bolt pattern, and they are manufacturer installed with GW engraved, then they are Perko.

Ditto. I have owned 5 different Gradys and never had a problem. My 2000 marlin just sold and the surveyor didn’t find any issues. The buyer had to back out of an 02 because there were. A properly maintained boat will last, a poorly maintained one will have issues. Grady went to a no rot...

What year and model boat? Most did not come with hydraulic power steering assist.It was only an option on some of the bigger boats. That could be an autopilot pump.

Re: Any 330 owners with freefall windlass operation problems I had factory foot switches on my 06 and now my 07, so it was definitely as early as those years.
