Please try to post pics. I have often thought this would be a great addition. What was cost? Thanks.

Steds83 Chris 2001 265 Express 2001 twin Yamaha HPDI 200's

Mine is in the starboard storage compartment under the v-berth.

I have same handling charateristics with my 2001 265. I figured the LI Sound chop was adding to the it, because on flat days she runs great, but now hearing same from other locations. I've tied different combinations of tab and motor trim settings but can't completely eliminate. I'd like to...

I agree and would also be interested hearing if anyone has done this.

OCNSLR - which 3-bank charger did you choose? Have you been happy with it? Thanks.

Thanks for the information and great photo! My macerator pump stopped a while back but as I don't pump out much it has not been a priority. More recently the electric head stopped pumping so I may tackle this all at once.

I'm very interested too. I've been trying to determine if there's a way to bolt something, like a padded aluminum arm, onto the hardtop structure that would help keep passengers on the benches.

freddy063 - I owe you one! I never would have thought to look for a ground wire that my marina crew missed - hooked it up and gauges work just fine. Thanks again!

Both the Main and Aux tanks are reading empty on the Yamaha multi-function guage (blinking bottom bar). Gauge worked fine last season and now after putting batteries back in, reading empty. What are chances both senders went bad or got stuck over the winter? Did I miss something when...

Thanks for the feedback - I'm not sure what is on mine - guess I will just try to clean it up. Thanks again!

Question for other 265 captains: is there a rubber gasket or some other type of water stop around your fold-down transom door? I have what looks like the adhesive base of a gasket around the perimeter but no gasket. If that's what it is (was) - any help with part number, pics, cost and...

Re: Found! Saltwater Sportsman Grady-White 265 Express Revie GMac - I agree with all your comments. Crew needs to stay seated but in most positions there is nothing to hold on to! I've thought about adding some tubing at the aft end of the benches but you run into clearance issues with the...

Boslaw - I must have read the same comments on SEI. I even looked at rebuilt but you just don't know where the core came from. Decided to go with new Yamaha lower unit. Hopefully installed and back in the water by week end. Looking for a couple more good days before the season ends...

I have not called Simyamaha yet - looked at their website and did not see lower units. Thanks for the tip. Anyone have experience with SEI lower units? Price is a third of OEM. How do they do that? Here's the link: http://www.sterndrive.cc/

Thanks for the info and advice. New OEM quote is $2,400 plus shipping.

I'm thinking of filing through insurance and therefore taking to a shop. What have people experienced with insurance premiums after a claim? Is it as bad as car insurance?

I have a 2001 Yamaha HPDI 200 that needs a new lower unit and prop (don't ask :bang ). Any have a good estimate of what this should cost? Thanks.

Here are a couple of other pics:[/attachment]0110924_0745.JPG[/attachment]

So I made an informal survey at my marina tonight. Found around 10 boats with Yamaha outboards - 8 did not use the tilt-support and 2 did (these 2 boats are docked adjacent to each other - maybe sharing tips :idea: ). Most lower housings were completely out of the water (always if a single...
