    New York Boat Show

    Went to the show yesterday and it was a lot better than last year... but dealers still had a limited supply of boats to show. Grady only had a couple of cabin boats... the 360 and 300, may have one other but they concentrated on bow riders and center consoles. Two years in a row and no 330...

    V-Berth Question for 330 Owners

    Well, I had my admiral convinced that the 330 was the right boat for us, all things considered, and that the vberth on the 330 was much larger than the one on the Marlin and that most of her problems on getting in & out of the berth would be eliminated. We went to the NY boat show hoping to be...

    F250 Water Pumps

    Question: how many of you don't follow the 200hr recommendation for water pumps... and if you don't what do you do? Also: I have the Yamaha shop manual and changing the water pump looks straight forward. Are there any "tricks" I should know? I've heard that sometimes the lower unit doesn't...

    Anybody having (or know of) problems with their F250's??

    By this friday I have to decide whether to buy the Yamaha 3yr YES program before my 2005 F250's warranty expires. So I could really use your feedback. Have any of you heard of any serious problems with these motors. In the 3 years I've had them they have been flawless and I haven't really heard...

    F250 Warranty Extension Question?? Yes or No?

    I think when I bought my boat in the summer of 2005 was one of the few windows back then when Yamaha wasn't offering 6yr warranties with the purchase of a new large block motor. So this summer I have to make the big decision: buy an extension or not?? From what I understand they are extremely...

    Block Island Fish

    Lining up for bait at Mudhole east of Block Is. These trawlers keep moving with heavy net cables being pulled off the stern... this was not in my boat and I don't think I'd try it in mine. They have the birds out that makes for a real obstacle course as you pull up to the port aft side...
