My 2000 has done the same since I got it in 2020. A few folks have called it out but I add water and leave about 20# of dive weighs on the port battery shelf.

They changed the dead rise to 19 in 2002 or 2003. When I get on plane if anybody moves around, I have to work the trim tabs to level her out. It's not horrendous and I'd rather not have folks moving around when I'm on plane anyway just one of those idiosyncrasies that I noticed. On the nicer...

Hi Folks - I currently have a 2000 265 Express that I've brought up to current standards i.e. new stuff all around, including electronics over the last 2 years. But I'm trying to consider a boat that's better for my family to be able to overnight on or even just be able to cruise with an AC...

That is just awesome - I'm not to far from taking that project on! Thanks for the details!

Thanks for all of the input (and pics) folks. I think I'll go with a seaview 5" pedestal in front of the bubble. -Cheers!

Thanks SkunkBoat, really appreciate the input.

Hi Fellow 265 Express owners - I have a new radar coming in as I redo my entire dash and was wondering if anyone has any tips on getting it mounted on the hard top. Are folks mounting on top of the bubble, in front of the bubble, on a mast? I'm getting a Raymarine RD418HD 4KW HD Digital Radar...

Wow that white/bone trim on the glass looks fantastic. I put blue on mine when I redid my glass early this year. After seeing this, kinda regretting.

Wow I love that helm! I have a 12" Axiom+ I'm about to install but the 12" Axiom Pro is making my wallet ache. How much fiberglass did you have to cut to make that fit?

That looks great! I've been tempted to redo the electronics and rebuild that console like you and so many others have - I am however reluctantly waiting for the repower.

My gas shock that keeps the drop transom on the 265 express has seized and I need to replace it. Does anyone know the pressure ratings on this part? I haven't checked with my local GW dealer since they are closed but wanted to see if anyone has replaced this via other sources. Thanks!

Family and friends had boats. Moved my immediate family to a new area. No extended family, no friends. Needed to get some boat under my feet.

Too Funny and pretty on point too!

Here's the custom job that I had done.

Great thanks for the feedback!

Thanks - Canvas is on order for delivery in January! Seating is a premium on the boat and I wanted to get a cooler with a cushion for an extra seat but worry about it being thrown around the cockpit offshore so a cooler with feet is mandatory and I think this would really help keep it in place.

That looks pretty good. I really like the steps too. The boat next to me in the marina has it as well and I've been wondering if it's worth it. How easy does it clean up after a good day of fishing?

I have to replace the head in my 265 Express. Has anyone put a Vacuflush in a 2000 265 Express?

Thanks for all the replies folks - My mechanic has a welder that makes custom swim platforms and it came out nice. I'll post a pic when I head over to the boat tomorrow.
