The fuel tanks are vented to the fuel fill. On my Islander that is a waste tank vent. Accessible (one handedly) thru the opening behind the toilet. You need to get a hose size first and then buy a quality vent. If you buy a fuel tank vent with a screen you can remove the screen - not needed for...

They will make you a custom panel. Not sure if they have all the components. Blue Sea does a lot of the same custom work and sell AC components. https://panelwizard.bluesea.com/

www.NewWireMarine.com They will custom make a panel for you.

You would have to make new ones. If you are sleeping on the boat maybe.

Good. I think you will be happier with that. Nobody opens them anyway and if you need air open the hatch.

Stopped in today. Shelvers are nearly empty. I asked "What's going on? You guys going out of business?". The reply was "No. We are updating all our inventory. Waiting for stuff to come in.". Well I suppose I got a real answer. We will see. I also pulled out my $100 gift certificate. Took him a...

The buzzers go bad. I have replaced a few.

Interesting. YouTube showing them closing down. Yelp review says they were closed. They have a Google listing with a phone number and hours but no web site. Call them!

For those of you who have the flexibility to consider an alternative look at this reversible helm chair. Several sources available. Can be used as standard seat, leaning post or reversible while fishing. Had it for two seasons and really love it. Moved seat over couple of inches to give...

Probably right...it was a stall not an overheat.

I'm going to stop in with my $100 gift certificate one day this week. Talking to my local tackle store he has been having supply chain problems. Things they usually could get they can't get. Product that smaller shops would have gotten was going to larger places and online sellers. I'll see...

Could have been a plastic ice bag the you picked up. Happed to me. Can't believe it was sand - you would have to be churning it up. Keep an eye on the engine temps, replace thermostats, rebuild water pumps if they are due.

Looks like A&J who did a lot of work for GW did close. GW probably took the work in-house and only do new boat work. You are going to have to find someone locally. Great Grady member can help if you tell us where you are located. I am shocked by some of the prices I hear for enclosures. Depends...

Unlikely you will find a replacement in glass. If it's flat (not curved) maybe a glass shop. Marine Glass Specialties in FL maybe. Windshields and glass are short run productions for specific Manufactures. Not like auto parts. They don't even want to talk to you.

How many clamshell pickups do you have under the boat. Most have two. This Pentair is a bait well pump (centrifugal). You probably have a ShurFlo for your wash down. I don't have any experience with the Pentair Bait Sentry pump. Airlock problem may be unique to this pump.

It's not that hard... No access to fuel fills, main tank can't be removed without cutting bulkhead out, even with bulkhead out tank can't tilt up without cutting step. But this is a 268 Islander.

I'm not convinced that he has a ShurFlo bait well pump. Maybe a ShurFlo wash down. I have never talked to anyone that didn't have a factory Rule centrifugal bait well pump. And I have never heard of a centrifugal pump that airlocked - diaphragm pumps yes but centrifugal no. It's possible GW...

SP Tanks in Clermont and Patriot in Forked River. SkunkBoat may be able to tell you how easy it will be to replace the tanks. Your tanks are different but here are some things to look out for... https://www.greatgrady.com/threads/268-islander-fuel-tank-replacement.36637/

Lots of variables. Where are you? Do you know if the tanks can be removed without cutting fiberglass or bulkheads? What size are the tanks? Changing all hoses? For that size GW and them doing all the work - $10,000. Tanks, hoses, miscellaneous parts are about $5,000.
