It’s behind the panel in the aft bunk on the port side. You should find not only the water heater but the fresh water pump also. Not a big deal to remove. MIne has 8 or 10 screws with finish washers on them and an AC duct which pops right off. Fyi, on my Marlin there is a strainer attached to...

Tony The stainless wiper arms are the same ones used on some over the road trucks. We also have them on our fire apparatus and they have the same fitting your looking for. You might try a heavy truck parts store and see what they say. The hard part may trying to find someone there who is will...

Wally I had a similar issue shortly after the repower of my marlin. I found that the main ground wire on the engine had loosened up. I believe it was the port engine. I went thru and checked all the connections on both motors and no more issues. Might not hurt to take a quick look. Tom

I'm with NEM on this one.I am also having a hard time deciding on which underwater light to use.Looked very hard at ocean led amphibians and also coastal night lights.At this point i think i'll wait,however i'm doing the lights under the gunnels and a few other minor things. Tom

Mega Thanks for the advise.I'll try and call the local dealer today or even the factory.Hopefully i can get some clear answers. Tom

I know this has been discussed many times before, but i'm in need of some clarification.I have a 2000 marlin that was repowered with f250's three seasons ago.Yesterday i was looking over the boat getting ready for spring,which can't come soon enough,and noticed the aluminum angle that sits on...

Fred Desperado's info is the same as what i have on my 2000 marlin.It is a pain no doubt.I had to squeeze the bottom of the pad with one hand while sticking a phillips screwdriver thru the grommet to back out the screws.I removed mine,had them recovered,and the canvas shop was able to put the...

Southern Yes i did get the "hpf" warning.I will also say that i was expecting to see more in the strainer than there was,basically not a lot,but no issue since.Good luck. Tom

Ditto on the low water flow.Mine does that once in a while.Wash out the strainer,quick scrub of the intake and all set. Tom

congrats!! Had an 89 gulfstream with twins before our marlin.Lots of great memories and a great boat. Tom

Tim I had mine redone last year by a shop in deep river ct.If you google[ seaquest vinyl] look at csctextiles and they list both the pleated and smooth material in all the colors.I was originally going to do the project myself but ran out of time so i had the local canvas shop do it. FYI I...

T-Bird You might try www.finnaddictmarine.com Click on the custom work side bar.They show a custom cabinet to replace the frig on a sailfish.Maybe they can fab something to fit in the existing hole where the microwave is on your marlin that will suit your needs.Just a thought. Tom

sblgfd I just picked up the coaming pads this afternoon from a local shop after being re-covered.I went with the "sea white" color.I looked at a sample of the chalk color and i also thought it was too white.I did ask about the curved seat and they said they were going to piece that in with...

I'll check that out.Thanks mega. Tom

After repowering our 2000 marlin the area where the oil tanks used to be is now vacant.Even thought this is under the live well it seems to be a fair amount of space that could be used.There is a pry out deck plate just below the livewell for access to the hoses and fittings that i thought i...

Anyone see or use this product yet? www.autotether.com I saw this at the hartford ct boat show and there was also an article in soundings magazine.Seems pretty good for those of us that may go out alone or even not i suppose.Thoughts? Tom

MRT I must admit offshore fishing is new to me.I am still learning.The 22 degree base was recomended to me by some other local grady owners who are avid offshore guys.I probably wouldn't even have one except i found a complete set-up on line a while back with a price i couldn't pass up.Like i...

I have a lee's 22 degree center rigger mount with a 12 ft pole on my marlin.It does not stick up any higher than my vhf antenna mounted on the hardtop.This may help to visualize how one may look on your boat. Tom

Sorry,didn't finish last post before i sent it. To answer your question,all the installs i've seen are all thru bolted.Some have starboard backers but most use large stainless fender washers for strength. Tom

Grady had a template that they e-mailed me for my marlin.It gave all dimensions and points to measure from positioning.Give them a call maybe they can do the same for the 265. Tom
