Got a good deal on a power assist unit. Currently planning out where to mount it. The hydraulic lines come through a tube on the SB side. So I am thinking that would be the most logical option. Would you mount it on the inside of the transom? Kind of hesitant creating new holes in a 30+ year old...

Also, thank you on the 12 Volt TV tip. Found a 27 inch model that only draws 2.5 amps an hour! Perfect!

I am very sorry for just now responding! I used to get email notifications for new posts on here but somehow they stopped. Anyway, to clarify I have two Yamaha Saltwater series 150 HP 2 stroke carbureted engines. They each have a 1-2-Both-Off battery switch. I do have two amplifiers with a...

Hello Everyone, I have a 1994 232G and I am thinking about replacing my lead acid house battery (starboard) with a Life Po4 battery. I was thinking something in the 200 Amp hour range. I have read that it is best to use a 12/12/30 amp DC/DC charger to equalize charging voltage from the...

Hi Art, This looks great! Do they auxiliary cushions (covering the gap) have a backing board? Any chance you could send me the dimensions? I bought a 232 GW and it didn't come with aux cushions.

Thank you for the input! Everything is working well so far. I think for now I'll wire everything to the original fuse block. DennisG01 you have a good point that the new accessories will draw less power. Eventually I will probably replace all wiring at once as Sardinia306 suggested.

I am considering running new positive and negative wires to a new fuse box under the helm. The boat is a 1994 Gulfstream with original wiring. Everything is working as it should but I am thinking to connect all new electronics GPS, Fusion Head Unit, NMEA, LED lights, VHF to a new circuit to not...

I am sure this is going to offend some of you fishing purists. ;) I intend to use my 232 Grady mainly as a sandbar vessel, cruiser, and family fun boat. I know blasphemy but I need to satisfy all aboard. I am installing a Fusion RA210 unit. I want to run 2x 6.5" speakers on the head unit. I...

2 Stroke For Life! ;) I did see the increased fees. I wonder how long they can keep that up. I am sure traffic has gone down quite a bit. The fees seem excessive to me.

I did research this quite a bit before posting. Not too much out there! I do agree on making my own templates and going to an upholsterer. I was just wondering if the cushions had a plywood backing or some sort of stand in order to bridge the gap of the walking area. Pictures and measurements...

I have a 1994 Gulfstream 232. It did not come with the aux berth cushions (making the cabin a twin bed). Would anyone be so kind and send me pictures and dimensions? If you have a spare set for sale, I am of course interested but I suspect I have to have them made. Thank you!

Thank you for the input! I will definitely go through the remaining service items and i am sure I will add 100 to 200 hours on the engines before we would have a chance to go. I will be in the Anna Maria area for 3 weeks in the first six months of this year plus some time on Lake Lanier. Should...

These last 6 months I have gone through an 1994 232 Gulfstream. Such a fun project! To my knowledge it had not run in 13 years when I bought it. It came with twin 150 HP Yamaha Saltwater series carburated 2 strokes (1997 year) with 700 hours. I have ultrasonic cleaned the carbs (replaced float...

You guys are hilarious! Thank you for the heads up! I’ll go with smaller wire

Thank you everyone! I will run 8 gauge GREEN wire and bond the tanks and fill studs and run to the negative battery terminal.

@SkunkBoat thank you for the detailed write up, super helpful. I have ONE fuel gauge for TWO (main and aux) tanks and believe there is a small toggle switch that switches between the tanks (new to the boat). How would the negatives (black) of the two senders be wired with one gauge? Are the...

I appreciate everyone's response and your patience with my lack of knowledge. I am attaching some pictures for reference. Starting at the fuel fill I have a black wire that is connected to the fill and the other is torn off. At the tank I have 2 black wires and one pink, and one pink/white...

Thank you! I made some pictures and have some questions. I’ll add them tomorrow!

I replaced both the main and aux tanks a few months ago and I am now getting around to wiring them. I have a pink, a pink/white, and two black wires coming to the tanks. I also have two black wires that are attached to the fuel fill (one main one aux). My factory manual says pink wire is for the...
