So bear with me for a minute.........One of my Yamaha Speedo gauges has become unreadable. I have seen that you can send them in to refurbish possibly. However my question is this. Do I really need it (the gauge) on my dash? I have twin 2009 F250's. But I have also since wired each motor to the...

I'm designing my new FF/GPS Radar and settled on the Simrad NSS 12 EVO3. My problem is I would love to do a 1KW thru hull Chirp Fishfinder. The Transom mounts are huge and with twin outboards I dont want to have isses. QUestion is has anyone placed a thru hull? Boat is a 265 Express. I'm...

I was hoping someone could help with this head scratcher :hmm I just had my motors serviced in February and today on a long run from port my starboard motor threw a low oil pressure light and I went into limp. So I promptly checked and yep oil was nonexistent on the stick. So I added the only...

After putting the boat back in the slip I am having an issue with the shore power tripping. I have had this problem before but usually after playing with the cable connections it stays on. Today nothing I did worked. I even tried plugging into a different dock box connection. So I changed out...

Hello, I just pulled the boat out for some tlc cleaning and noticed this.... I would guess this is what is referred to as "blistering"? What causes it? Can I keep it from happening? Any information would help. Thank you.

Finally got time today to clean the hull and bilge. Thanks to all the other posts for the recommendations. I used the ol' 50/50 Bleach and water for the bilge and then a product called on/off for the hull. Both worked great!

My stock swim platform just cracked and I am in the market for a new/better one. Has anyone replaced theirs? What type? If not does anyone know if the maker of these is garelick (sp?). Hope to get it back on for the abalone diving season. Thanks.

Well, we have been getting into the albicore the last couple months. A buddy of mine thought of this great Idea to build a trophy board like they have in alaska for our catch, so here are half of the tuna we caught last week. Cant display them all but kinda fun.

Took this off of another board and just shipped mine today. We will see what happens. After months of issues hopefully this does it.: Raymarine, now under FLIR`s ownership has recognized the on going problem with thier DSM300 series module loosing connection with the display and setting alarms...

First I have to thank all those here who have given advise on this topic and shared photo's. Now it's my turn. I was tossing around the idea of doing the starboard thing on the dash and that just didn't sit right with the little woman. So we decided to make it look like we thought the grady...

Here's the deal. I have come up with this great idea :idea: on how to mount a crab puller off of the super stucture on my 265 express. Basically I will be using the back leg that supports the roof. It seems like enough. Let me know what you think. Is the stock 2" support strong enough? What...

I have a 265 Express I am trying to pump. I tried to pump out my holding tank the other day with a dock side pumpout. It keept pumping but didn't seem like any liquid was comming out. Is there a valve on the boat side that needs to be opened? It seemed like there was a squeeking noise I could...

Made it out to Ft. Bragg California this week for tuna! We did good 14 albacore and a great time. Boat ran awesome. 30 miles out runin at 38 knots!

I have a 2000 Express 265 and wanted to know if anyone has modified their older model express to the updated backrests like the newer 2005 and up have? You know the ones I am talking about on the side bench seats? Is it possible?

I am new to Raymarine products and while out fishing my C120 FF acting up. The best way to describe it is that it would start to mark bait, then just cut out. See how on the picture there is a distinct cutoff line. I tried doing a DSM reset and that didn't seem to help. It did function ok at...

I am a proud new owner or a 2000 Express 265. I have been searching this forum and getting some good ideas on things to do. But I thought I would aslo ask, What improvements and upgrades have you guys done that you are proud of? Upload some pictures! I am thinking about adding a transsom mounted...
