    Trailer recommendation for 2000 232 Gulfstream

    I ordered a aluminum trailer from Fastload in Fla.

    down rigger install

    I have 2 Big Johns on my Gulfstream mounted aft of the back rod holders. I don't think that the factory rod holders are strong enough to support a down rigger in a gimbal mount. Check clearance under the gunnel for your backing plate before drilling. Joe.

They look like you could get enough screws in them for a solid mount. I was able to get a backing plate under my riggers. But the top...

    Gulfstream sink pump

    I can't seem to locate the pump for the sink on my '92 Gulfstream. The owners manual shows it to be roughly under the port seat base,seems to make sense because that is where the water tank filler is located. Any clues? Thanks, Joe.

    The spray shields were gone when I bought my Gulfstream, so i plugged the holes with brass screws and caulk because the bracket was filling up with water. I really don't notice any kind of water spray. Joe.
