The boat is in St Augustine. I did not use an agent. I called them both directly.

I just bought a 2004 Advance 257 with twin yamahas with 250 hours. They ran well during trial, but after a short trip recently they were running rough in the no wake areas (vibration). Any idea what this might be? Suggestions?

I just priced a policy for a 2004 257 with a stated value of 45k. It stays on a trailer in Florida. With 500 deductible the coverage was $1,100 from Geico (through Boat US) and $1,250 with Progressive (through USAA). I also have a 2003 Gulfstream which is kept in Maryland (same stated value...

I'm shopping for a trailer and one of the guys selling them told me that stainless steel calipers are not worth the extra money because the part that fails is the boot/seal, not the stainless part. It seems to make sense, but I do not have the experience to know. BTW, thank you to all the guys...

I am looking at a 2004 257 Advance and it is plated for 8 passengers. Most of the other years (same size and model) I've seen are plated for 10 passengers. Can this be changed?

I am looking at trailers for a 257 Advance with twin 150's. I want something substantial and durable as we trailer a lot. I am looking at aluminum with stainless hardware and disc brakes. I have 2 quotes for two brands at $5,900 and $7,000. This is more than I expected. Are these numbers...

I am looking at a boat with 2004 Yamaha 150 four strokes. They have about 300 hours. I know motors do not like to sit. Is it likely they will give problems because of the lack of use? Anything I should look for? Thanks!

Has anyone ever tried to replace the front port side chair on a Freedom (2017) to a pedestal chair? The port side chair is so low, that passenger can't see over the door to the head. Any help/pictures would be great! Thanks, Patrick

Thank you for all your comments. It will help me sell the idea to my wife!

I have a 2003 Gulfstream. I just installed a new Sony radio/stereo. Just after that, I accidentally drained my batteries. Since they were a few years old I replaced them. Now when I turn on an electrical accessory like my spot light, the radio sound shuts off for 3 or 4 seconds. I am...

Wow, thank you very much for all the info, I really appreciate it!

I am having my cushions re-upholstered and using the original foam. The original foam was wrapped in a plastic wrap inside the vinyl coverings. The guy doing the work says that the plastic wrap is a bad idea. I think that they would not have been wrapped originally if it was a bad idea...

Thanks to all who responded. This is very good information. I will let you know what I end up doing and what the result is. Thanks again, Patrick

I have a 2003 Gulfstream with a 2003 Yamaha 225 4 stroke (approx 1,000 hrs) on a and it runs great, but sometimes when I start it black flakes (maybe carbon?) come out of the exhaust. Any idea what this is? Should I be concerned? Thanks for any help. Patrick
