I have the brochure, and I figure I am at about 9000-10000lb wet. Has anyone weighed one? May have to look for a new tow vehicle and the Suburbans and Expeditions are are 9300 ish towing capacity. Only tow around town for service, hurricane haulout, occasional 2hr pull to OBX. She’s a plus sized...

Did this ever sell?

I just repowered and have complete rigging from a 26 GW Express ( twin 2001 HPDI’s) including Dual Binnacle. Boat was dry stored its whole life and had only 880 hrs on the entire rig. Let me know if you are interested in anything

We did ours with two motor lifts, didn’t even unhook the controls. If you want to tackle it yourself it’s doable

Was in the same boat with my 265. First I tried a heat gun, and that worked ok. Then I just hand sanded them until they were smooth and hit them with some plastic paint:

Good read

So, they’ve built 2 so far 27 miles SE of us. (Va Beach). Want to build a couple hundred between there and OBX. They’re still working out there and if you try to fish the base of one they’ll run you off. I guess it will be like that during the build out ( if it happens). Lots of discussion if...

1. Glad everyone is ok 2. Love to know the cause-always learning 3. If anyone sees this at auction-let me know- 265 power buy, I need some things!

Based on my experience, make sure you take your time removing the sender and be extra careful with the RivNuts . I put too much torque and damaged them, causing a leak. I’d also run some of the fuel out of the tank before you start the process

Skunk- my 01 had the 2x4 when we popped the floor up, original tanks. We skinned those wood pieces with some fiberglass resin before we buttoned her up

Looking good. Look like original tanks. When you caulk it, run a piece of mono around the gap before you caulk and leave a small “tag” somewhere. Then when you need to pull the deck back up, yank the mono first and it will cut thru the caulk for a clean release

So, the install is complete and of course the wind machine turned on. Haven’t be able to get out of the inlet except for a few runs to put some time on the motors. While running at 3k for that part of the break in, I noticed occasional cavatation. Randomly jump up 400/500 rpm. Condition were...

I’ve had boats my whole life and spent 15 years in a 25 SeaVee before my 265. Thought I had seen it all. First ocean trip in my 265 was a nightmare, couldn’t figure it out. Wanted to sell it. Then I found this site and took all the advice above. Heed all the advice above and put some hours on...

Here’s a shot of the mounting holes

So- just got a quick call from the dealer. They tried the Powertech LFS4 16x20’s. Said it blew out a lot and sometimes one side would randomly blow out on plane causing a nice heel over. I didn’t get numbers but in their opinion the Suzuki. 15 1/4 x 22’s worked fine. I am anxious to get the...

Tiki bar at Cape Charles. Kids love finding sand dollars. You could run across the bay easily on a good day

Getting ready to order some Powertech LSF4 16x20’s from PropGoods, thoughts? Thanks for any input.

Any suggestions on getting a replacement GW sticker ? That “G” kills me!

Update. Supposedly these are the latest version and wiring harnesses are different . Waiting on those and some fiberglass work. Digging the Black!

Making me jealous- dealer told me my starboard motor will be here in a week. Going to roll with the same props as you guys. Looks like only difference is mine are black mechanicals
