    Recommendations: Powertech 4 blade props on 2006ish Gulfstream?

    Hook,,, looks like he already called Ken. Third sentence in says " recommended by Ken....." I'm running the OSF4 on a single setup on Ken's recommendation as well. Great prop. Repowered last year from a 3.3 F225 to a 4.2 F250 and kept the prop. Ran it for a little bit on the F250 but took it...

    welding hardtop support

    Find a good welding shop that can weld aluminum. I've had mine done, just be aware there are wires for spreader lights running in the tubes depending on which area you're welding in. So far I've had no issues with the wires in my tubes and weld being done.

    Decals

    Grady-White by Pompanette Sorry, these are the best I have. Had to zoom in on pic and screenshot them. I'll be around the boat this weekend if you need better.

    Decals

    A picture of location would help. Is it on the back of the chairs or the front of the cushions? Older style had both sometimes.

    Installing a boat table

    Gotcha. If you have access behind mounting location you could always put a backer plate on the inside to spread the load.

    228 Seafarer upgrades questions. MFDs - 2 9s? 1 12" or 16"? Auto-deploy trolling motor and shaft length?

    I'll give ya my take on the depth finder question. When I first got my 228, I installed 2 - 7" Lowrance units inside my e-box, they worked ok, but the size was hard to see sometimes and had issues that I never could resolve with them powering up. Got frustrated on one of my fishing trips to SC...

    Carry an Extra Propeller ?

    When I vacation down in Florida, be it around Tampa or the Keys, I have a spare prop with me, although it's in the truck. I figure if something happens I can call TowBoat US and get back to the ramp and change out. At least I don't have to buy one when I'm down there.

    First boat

    Boats go on the market year round. You have to stay vigilant if you're looking for a specific model. If a well priced, clean example of the boat you're looking for pops up, chances are, it will be gone before you see it if you just check "For Sale" sites every now and then. There may be others...

    2004 GW Gulfstream Outrigger Mod (or deletion)

    I had gunnel mount outriggers on my 228 when I bought it. Used them a couple of time and didn't really care for the lack of a good spread that they gave me, more of a 45° off my gunnel instead of a 90°. Removed those and went with hardtop outriggers and installed the plates underneath. Much...

    Who makes the rocker switch covers?

    Another vote for New Wire. If I redo my switch panel, they will be getting my business.

    Live well ball valve on a 228

    3-4 year old post. But that's what you'll need if yours are rusted off or seized shut. I replaced mine a few years back, the rods were good but the handles for seacocks were rusted off. You will stand on your head going into the bilge after them. The pics of that bilge at the first of this...

    What year is this Yamaha Outboard?

    I did ask about the "C" below the serial number and they said it has no bearing on the age. It's all in the serial numbers now after 2005. Just called and talked with my dealer again about this motor. Only past issues that are showing up on Yamaha warranty side was a lower unit replaced in '14...
