    Honda 250 taking a bath

    If not underway and the bottom of your cowling for the engine itself is in the water, you have a problem! If you were talking about the midsection which is below the engine then you may be OK.

    330 Express Freshwater Washdown Hose

    On my 2007 330 the hose in the port side sink is accessible from an access panel in the rear cabin overhead. I changed mine, but don't remember if I had to remove more than one panel . Very easy actually.

    Re: Factory Canvas Color?

    If you want to know the exact color of the OEM canvas call AJ Canvas in Vanceboro NC and ask Lee. She has information on the exact color Sunbrella they put on them. I needed to match my 2007 beige color and she told me which Sunbrella they used. Mine I believe was silver but she’ll know what the...

    Electronics wiring question

    Some are of the opinion that transmitting sonar when out of the water can damage the transducer. Placing the DSM300 on a separate switch would allow sonar to be easily turned off, saving battery power and keeping the transducer cool out of the water. There could also be load sharing issues...

    Electronics Upgrade Project - 330 Express

    On my 2007 330 I replaced Garmin 5212s with slightly different sized 1243xsv MFDs. Ordered custom bezels from NewWire marine. Plug and play with a little cutting of existing holes. Existing holes were too small in horizontal dimension and too large in vertical dimension. Very easy! No need to...

    Differential GPS or DGPS requires a land-based surveyed site transmitting to your receiver. If you are truly using the DGPS then you need to have that specific transmitter dialed in near you. If you are referring to WAAS, that is a different enhancement and doesn’t require a specific land based...

    Fuel sender ohms

    Get the manual for the gauge and make sure the programming is correct. The sender is programmable based on US or European and there are other programmable options for your gauges. Might want to check those before you go into detail troubleshooting.

    Balsa or no Balsa?

    I went out and tapped my 330 express. It is solid to slightly above the waterline maybe all the way up to the scupper through hulls which are several inches above the water line. My waterline appears to be about 3 inches below where the tapping sounds become more hollow.

    Balsa or no Balsa?

    Below the waterline is solid fiberglass. if you open some panels you can see where the cored sides begin well above the waterline.

    Seems you would want to finish the gelcoat before you hang the motors. Just my two cents!

    replacement wiper blades

    My 2007 330 has blades that require the Narrow (0.25”) refills. I found that Anco N-22R is a bit long maybe 2 inches but works fine. They are very cheap online. mine appear to be identical to the ones pictured above. The need is for a quarter inch wide refill that slides in and locks on one end...

    Seafarer Throttle Problem

    I don’t know the specifics of that engine but if the throttle cables all look good and they move the butterfly then you may have a fuel or air problem. Possibly a limp mode to protect the engine from some malfunction. Or dirty fuel or some other reason that the engine will not accelerate past...
