    My next project!!

    Well, after further investigation, New Wire unplugged all my old switches from the old panel in order to ship it back to me, so clueless as to where the circuits are. Luckily I have the owners manual and the wiring diagram is in it. Guess I'll be hooking up direct instead of the plug.

    My next project!!

    Looks good. Wanted to replace my side panel on mine to go matte black to match my dash panels. Also 20 year old switches and breakers that needed replacing.

    My next project!!

    That's my photo of my old panel connector. If I want it pluggable, I will have to go through and cut the wires on the plug and butt connect the new panel wires to the old plug circuit wire,,,,, or bypass the plug altogether, and butt connect directly to the circuit on the boat side of the plug.

    Upgrading Yammies - can I keep my steering?

    Possibly the key switches. Something is different about the DEC/XCA motors needing a new switch. Also the gauges as they will need to be digital. I just repowered and replaced everything,, key switch, gauges, binacle and engine wiring harness as the XCA motors are FBW,,, all the cables go away.

    My next project!!

    The blue will be down low by my hip/leg while driving, as I stand at night, can see better than trying to look through the slanted windshield with glare off the dash, so pretty sure it will be a non issue for me. As far as the wiring, I haven't decided if I'll hardwire directly to new wires or...

    My next project!!

    My New Wire Marine switch panel arrived today. Looking forward to getting it back in the boat. Moved a couple of switch locations around, picked up 2 accessory spots, put breakers below the switches and added a back-lit Grady-White logo in the unused space at the end. All switches and logo are...

    Need to ground a fuel tank

    Getting ready to go through this as well. When I repowered, I installed new digital gauges and the fuel level is shown for both tanks. The original Grady setup was a switch to toggle between the 2 tanks and one reading on the old gauge. So I pulled the switch panel and cut the two pink wires...

    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

    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.
