The battery charger circuit breaker on the AC side of the switch panel in my 2006 Marlin breaks immediately when activated. It happens both with shore power or generator provided AC current. All other AC applications (air conditioner, water heater, etc…) still function normally. I never had a...

While prepping the boat for Idalia, I noticed there’s a small fluid reservoir inside the frontmost compartment under the forward berth. Anybody know what it’s for?

Should I expect any problems running my Fischer-Panda and AC while running at cruise speed? It seems like folks do, but I’ve never tried it.

I knew I had a battery issue after a failure to start while bottom fishing a while back. No problem, changed the battery switches and everything worked normally. I made sure all the cells were wet and hooked up to shore power as usual to charge batteries when I got back. I checked my batteries...

Two Tach gauges and one Speed/Fuel gauge for sale. All are in excellent condition and operate perfectly. $500 for all three or $200 each. I’ll pay shipping unless you need them overnight.

I’ve noticed it’s taking a little longer to start my Panda diesel genset than usual. If you have one, how long do you normally need to crank it to get it going? Mine runs perfectly once started, but it’s taking about three or four 10 second cranks to get it going. Mine is 16 years old.

I just lost one of my 15 year old Yamaha 250s and rather than spend the $8-10k the mechanic says it will take to get it running properly again, I’ve decided that the day for the inevitable repower has arrived. So I’ve ordered a pair of Suzuki DF300APs that I think will be a nice improvement for...

I haven’t had my Marlin for long and I don’t regularly use the DC refrigerator, but we’ll be making a coastal trip soon and will be living dockside for several days and want to keep the fridge running constantly. I assume that it’s fine to keep the fridge running off batteries while hooked up to...

Anybody know where I can find a couple of the little black screw on knobs for the seacock levers? I’ve got two rolling around my bilge somewhere and don’t feel like pulling deck plates to look for them.

I’m planning my first long distance fishing trip, so fuel is necessarily a concern. How accurate have you found the fuel gauges on your Grady’s to be? I have Yamaha Command Link gauges and my fuel level for each tank is indicated by 10 bars when full. I like to think that each bar represents...

Where’s the best place to mount a Category II EPIRB?

I thought the armrests on my Pompanette helm seats were just dirty or had mold imbedded in them, but the folks I just used to detail the boat tried to clean them and said the vinyl was worn down and needed to be painted. I know about SEM vinyl paint, but have never used it. Is this something...

Has anyone installed SeaDek on a Marlin? Any pictures? Cost? Thanks for any help or advice!

I’m the new owner of a 2006 Marlin 300. Love the boat! But the livewell seacock and the A/C seacock are both stuck open. I don‘t want to force them, but I do want to be able to close them. Any advice?

The passenger side Pompanette seat bottom cushion on my 2006 Mariner slides into a couple of 12” vinyl/plastic mounting rails. Both have broken and need to be replaced. Does anyone know where I can find those parts?
