Having a very strange problem with the batteries, at least it appears that is what is the cause is. 3-Deka 800 Amp batteries, one 2 yrs. old and two, three years old. Motors are the Yam OX66 225 . Started perfect three weeks ago but did not start yesterday. Batteries all read 12. 9 V...

Kind of stumped. Several questions. 1) The Accessory/Starboard Battery is dead, charges up when plugged into the dockside power by the charger. When running for several hours, the depth finder, which shows volts, shows it dropping off all day. Starts at 12v and DF finally blinks out at 8v...

Title says it all. I think that I blew the starboard motor on Friday off shore. Got home, barely, stopped 1/2 mile from canal. Need to get the mechanic to pull the boat (no trailer) and put a short block replacement engine in. Any experience, Taylor Marine? Thanks for any help. Steve PS...

Went out to the Hotdog yesterday and boat ran great the whole way. Getting close to the beach, I noticed that the steering was getting harder to turn. The boat has two 225 OX 66 Yamahas. I am assuming that the problem could be one of the motors is slightly seizing up vs an hydraulic...

Started boat up for the first time this year and had steering issues and of course the starboard motor's trim tilt did not work. Maybe someone has run into this, steering, completely bled it last year, new fluid. This year, steers great to the left and takes about two full turns to go to the...

Would anyone know what the model number is of the compass or how wide the hole is to set the compass in? The boat is 90 minutes away and I want to order a new one. Thanks in advance. Steve

Not to beat a dead horse here, but, I am assuming the Thru the hull transducer, no, holes will work on the GW 272. Please let me know if you have one and if it works ok. Looking at a Garmin 720 with a shoot thru transducer, 600W. Steve

Just a quick question. I have a 272, 98 Sailfish with 0X 225 and shore power with a charger. I am greatly inclined to remove the batteries over the winter and unplug the boat. I have actually never left a battery on whatever boat that I have owned over the winter. Even with the charging...

Just bought a 272 Sailfish. Filled up the reserve and put 75 gallons in the main tank. Ran the boat off shore 25 miles, fished all day. No Problems so Far. On the way back to the lift, put 120 gallons in the main tank. Tank said full. On way back. 3 miles. to the lift, smelled fuel. It...

Thanks for looking at this post. I just purchased a 272 1998 GW Sailfish and am in the process of mounting the outrigger holders, standard Lee Juniors bought from a GW member of this website, thanks. I would need three measurements from the attachment points on the side of the cockpit. The...
