Wanted to find out who has early model Yamaha 350’s and if you have been happy with them, any problems, how many hours on them? Found a boat with a pair of 2008 Yamaha 350 with about 300 hours on them. I have read the early modes of these motors had some problems but I wonder if some of the bad...

So is the preferred area to sleep the aft cabin? Looks like you would be able to stretch out more there than converting the table to the berth. Keep wanting to upgrade our 1997 Tigercat just can never seem to pull the trigger.

Same thing happened to mine this past season. That’s the third one in 10 years, actually just finished ordering a Airmar P66 triducer that way I can eliminate the separate paddle wheel for speed. Don’t need a expensive transducer here on the Chesapeake bay since it’s mostly shallow water plus we...

Towed our Tigercat from Maryland to Key Largo and back with eisenglass down with zero problems. I did roll them up at one point on the way down to see if fuel economy would get better and it made no difference

Cant wait to uncover boat so I can try cleaning O2 sensor and sea foam motors. Everything you descried is exactly what mine do right donw to bogging out in neutral when trying to rev up. Thanks for the update i will report back but wont be for 3 more long months.

If I can remember to look in the morning I will see what ours are although we hade 200 HPDI engines. I think they might be a little big since we only get 5k rpms but I never run that except for a few times a year just to open her up. We also love our 1997 TIGERCAT next year will be 13 years and...

Thanks for the reply, do you do overnights on the boat? If so how comfortable is the forward berth, are you able to stretch out or do you use the aft berth? What speed do you cruise at, what rpm's and about what is the fuel burn at cruise?

Hello going to look at a 2007 305 express with twin 250 Yamahas with 450 hours, boat has been lift kept since new. Does not have a generator or bow thruster but from pics looks very nice. I do not want a generator so that’s a plus but wonder if the lack of bow thruster is a negative. Would like...

Glad I am not the only weirdo watching them.My wife thinks I am nuts for watching them.

You could always get the Lowrance nmea engine cables and have all the same info right on chartplotter. Its as simple as running cables from engine harness to a nmea backbone then to chartplotter . Just did it with my HPDI engines. ...

Not sure if you have checked here but you can give it a try. My 1997 Tigercat manual is there and shows all wiring. https://www.gradywhite.com/the-grady-experience/owners/owners-manuals/

Makes me wonder if I should pull my tanks in our 1997 Tigercat and check them Have never smelled or seen any fuel in the bilge but I guess you really never know until you check into it. If you have not had any problems would you pull tanks or wait till something comes up?

I had a problem once where when I replaced the spin on fuel filter there was a small bit of corrosion where the o-ring seals the filter to the housing and it was allowing it to suck air in and not fill up the filter. Just figured I would mention that.

Have yet to try these jet boils out but have watched a few videos and they seem like a great product. Then a nice American press and you are set. Oh and I love BRRC coffee. https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/collections/equipment/products/micromo-jet-boil...

I have been saying i am getting a new to us boat for a few years but always have a hard time actually committing to selling ours . I think I will put her up for sale the end of the season.

Just wanted to see if anyone has input on a good boat loan company and how they work. Do they offer pre qualification so you can look around and find what you want or do you need to have one picked out? Don’t want to fill out numerous applications and have a bunch of credit pulls that could...

I never leave the dock without mine on. Came home one day after fishing and heard a boat had started to sink around where I was fishing but did not have vhf on. If I had it on I would have heard the distress call and could have helped out. Everyone was ok but that is why I have mine on at all...

Not sure yours is the same as mine but we just had ours repaired do to water intrusion which rotted out the balsa core and made it very soft to the point that the bolts holding hardtop on were not tight anymore and noticed the back side out outriggers were compressing the top. We removed top and...

Thanks for the replies I have order paint swatches from Jamestown marine from all the major manufacturers and will just pick the one that matches the best. Like a previous poster said since it’s up high and has the aluminum structure and enclosure between it and the rest of boat I don’t think...

Getting my hardtop for my 1997 F26 Tigercat repaired and need to find a paint that will closely match original. I realize whatever I get won’t be exact but just trying to find something close. The guy doing it likes the Totalboat paint and said he has had good results with it. Just wanted to see...
