    express 265 prop question

    14.5 x 15 seems awefully small for 3 blade. Are they 4 blade? Are you testing with trim tabs up all the way and not doing anything? Best to nullify the trim tabs from the equation. Do testing without tabs. IMO, using tabs on a 265 is just asking for problems. Put them up, pull the fuse and...

    NJ fishing reports

    Seabass has been pretty good at Klondike rocks. If they are not biting you have to wait it out. When they do turn on it’s fast and furious. Got 42 nice keepers Thursday with 5 fishermen. Friday my sister and I got 20 on a wreck. 14 fish came between 11:45 and 12:15.

    The yamahas have nothing to do with AC amp draw. I don't have new triple yammies but I would look at "center" battery switch being on or center key on.

    That is a 30A 125v ac breaker. You remove it from that black housing. You don't need the whole thing. Just the breaker. There is a number on it. Its a common breaker. you can find on blue seas website, WM, Amazon.. But its not your problem. It feeds everything.

    2004 265 express circuit breaker replacement

    I moved the 30A inlet and Galvanic isolator closer to the panel so I did not need a 30A breaker near the inlet. The Main Breaker on the panel is the breaker. On mine, the GFCI in the head fed the other outlets in the galley and helm. So if the gfci trips, all outlets are dead. The Charger and...

    2004 265 express circuit breaker replacement

    Well, all of my original outlets were sketchy. They needed replacing. 20+ years of turning green inside. And the steel parts rusted. Dangerous. I used "weatherproof" outlets from HD. Grady didn't impress me with their AC wiring. They cut the bottom off the boxes to get the wire in. really...

    The charger has an outlet or is it hardwired? GFI Outlet? Mine was originally hardwired.

    Does the Charger have its own breaker on your panel? Separate from outlets? The outlets are all fed from the load side of the GFI in the head. It might be tripped

    You have power to other receptacles? The thing pictured is the Main Inlet Breaker. If it is open, you will have no AC power anywhere
