    268 Islander info needed

    Howdy all, I hope everyone is staying safe. I am looking at a 1998 268 Islander, and wanted some thoughts on the model. I've owned a 228G and two 232Gs, so I'm intimately familiar with the way they're built. Any known problem areas to look for specifically on the 268, or have they been pretty...

    Molded plastic cockpit shelf deterioration

    Has anyone with an older (mine is a 1999 232G) model GW experienced the corners of the molded plastic "shelves" on either side of the helm cockpit cracking or breaking due to age and UV exposure? They may be referred to as "acrylic deckwing inserts", GW parts #20-190 and 20-191 for port and...

    99 232G with Raymarine a128/Quantum 24mi/CPT120

    I just outfitted my 1999 232G Gulfstream with a Raymarine a128, CPT120 ducer, and 24mi Quantum radar. Needless to say, it's an awesome setup. I opened up the factory helm pod and did a flush mount for the MFD with starboard, and also had room to mount the Infinity stereo, as well as a USB...

    Yamaha fuel management help needed

    Can anyone help me out with the Yamaha fuel management system? I upgraded the motor on my '00 232G with an '05 Yamaha F250 4-stroke. I had to buy a new tach to read the updated ECM, but the speedo is the same. Do I need to buy a separate gauge and harness for the fuel management feature, and...

    WIPER BLADE REFILL HELP

    Hi all, I know there's been posts previously, but does anyone have any current info regarding aftermarket wiper blade insert refills? I have a '00 232G with a pair of 20" blades, and the rubber is shot. Not really looking to replace the complete blade, since the s/s component is fine. I can...

    PROP SELECTION ADVICE

    Anyone running a 228G Seafarer (mine is a '94) with a 225 Optimax? I'm repowering mine now, upgrading from a '94 V-200 Merc carb motor. My 17p aluminum prop gave me WOT at 6100 rpm, and the 19p mirage s/s gave me 4900 rpm at WOT. The dealer thinks that the 19p will be perfect when I hang the...

    Duratrim replacement on '94 228G

    Hey gang, I am repowering my '94 228G Seafarer, and included with the new 225 Opti are the smartcraft gauges. 2 4" gauges will replace the yard-sale of original ones, so to keep the dash looking original, I need to get a blank sheet of Duratrim (about 12" by 18") to mount the new gauges in...
