New issue lately, boat start up no problem (has always been a little rough at startup but once get going no issues and reliable). Drove about 45 minutes to go fishing, did a few drifts for about half hour each then pick up and move for 5 minutes or so. After 3rd drift or so, engine just won't...

Anyone out there find good aftermarket replacement helm cushions? I see two brands out there that look good. Just not sUre what will fit properly.

I know this will be controversial, but anyone ever reseal their tank? I havent pulled my tank yet, but getting some gas fumes (no leaking fuel in the bilge). I will need pull tank, but wondering if anyone has tried to reseal the tank (i have seen some that reseal from inside), pretty sure i have...

Was out this morning (finally got into some schoolie bass) and an issue that has been around for a while reminded me it was there. I end up running at low speeds/1400 rpms (no wake) for about 10 minutes boat runs fine (same at WOT and everywhere in between). I will fish then start up and move a...

I was getting water in the cabin from the helm area and also noticed I had some water (about two cups after a heavy rain and leaving uncovered which I dont do often) - enough to cause water damage eventually and some mold, and was likely what was helping the partition between cabin and helm...

Two seasons ago something ate a hole and made a nest in my cushions (fixed them already), this year removed the cushions for the winter and left a roll of paper towels - something chewed on that (no damage). I even left those seed looking packets to keep mice out but I think these are squirrels...

My engine overheated when I started it up for the season (s150txru) and have worked on a few things since then (see other posts where the pros bailed me out. Water pump and driveshaft bushing replaced as it was beat). Should also mention the rpms seems a little high at around 10k after settling...

I need to replace the driveshaft on my 1996 s150. I got the circlip out but cant budge the bushing. I ordered a blind slide hammer, but was wondering if anyone has replaced this before and has any tips. Thanks.

Had to drop lower unit (first time for me on a yamaha) to replace the waterpump (see my other post - was overheating). Wondering if any maintenance to do while lower unit is off and I wait for parts, took a peak up exhaust and noticed difference from port (looks greasier) the starboard. Should I...

Had to drop lower unit and had a hard time getting the trim anode hex bolt out. It was stripping and got lucky by wrapping some electrolic tape and and tapping in with rubber mallet. Anyone know of there is a standard bolt replacement. Found one on amazon but comments say they send a hex...

Check out this one for sale on Facebook market. Looks pretty cool, but very top heavy.

I am planning on replacing the impeller for the first time since I bought this grady (the lower unit was brand new when I bought the boat a year and a half ago). The engine is an s150txru. My question is this- do you always replace the bottom plate or only if needed? I am concerned about getting...

Anyone ever replace these cupholders on the 1996 and older adventures? Sorry for the bad pictire- the amount of drink that have spilled from these (very low rim to hold cans) is getting unbearable. Will try to get better picture next in the boat.

Last year a squirrel decided to make a nest in the cabin cushion and destroyed a piece of it. Given the use of the cabin cushions (never sit or sleep down there) and the expense, I am going to try and repair cheap by myself (I think this is going to be a painful project) Was going to use this...

I finally got my new bimini top and enclosure all set up, but still need to fasten the bimini downm my. My boat has the tie downs installed on the boat (the oval ones that twist). This is what I am looking for (from someone elses), anyone know where I can buy them?

I trailer my boat and use a trailer with rollers - which means when I launch my boat I cant unclip the winch strap/safe chain until my boat hits the water (otherwise the boat could roll down off the trailer while launching). I have always had to climb in the water, balance on the trailer beam...

My anchor light (a replacement I luckily bought from someone on this site last year) tend to wiggle loose and lose it connection with any major movement of the boat. Is there supposed to be something on the light that screws into the base to hold it in? Afraid I will eventually break the pins...

Does anyone know where I can by the supports (not sure of proper name) for the livewells/icebox (circled I'm red below- picture taken from a other users post). Also looking for the straps to hold the lids closed and some hamlet material of have siggestions (just converted port box to a livewell@...

My boat did not come with the factory livewell and I am in the process of installing. I was able to run 3/4 hose from the bilge to the port side icebox (now livewell) using the port PVC tube under the deck (all my wires use the starboard side so this one was empty). This pipe come out under the...

Does anyone have an anchor roller on the front of their adventure or overnighter? If so can you share some pictures or input - uncertain what to do with the cleat if install an anchor roller. For the install not sure if I need a backing platuse? Also not sure if I need/want a self launching...
